I'm looking for a competent Java programmer who wants to get into the world of search engines and crawlers. The internship will involve a mixture of (some) training and (mostly) hands-on projects with real-world clients.

In particular, my area of expertise is in vertical search (real estate, jobs, classifieds), so more than likely, that will be the bulk of the exposure.

You'll be working mostly with Lucene and Nutch, but more than just using them, you'll be delving into their innards and pushing the limits of these libraries.

Upon graduation, if you're interested, you'll be invited to stay on and work alongside me on contracting projects, some of which might involve on-site work, perhaps overseas.

The background to this is that I'm basically tired of turning down consulting work because of my limited time, and want to start building a search/crawling consulting practice.

So if you're interested, send your resume along to internship AT supermind.org, with a brief note on your background and interest in this field.
