becoming a solr specialist
Hi all,
First of all forgive me if asking this here is inappropriate, but I couldn’t think of a better place where all Solr experts gather.
I have been working as the main “solr person” at a project since 2018 where Solr sat at the very core of things. It’s mainly a distributed data (20+TB’s) analysis system where data is aggregated/analyzed using Solr’s multilevel JSON faceting and streaming expressions. Search and relevancy was less important.
As that project came to an end, I am looking for another position where I can make use of my existing knowledge and keep building on top of that, since switching to something unrelated to Solr feels like so much of my previous effort is going to be a waste.
In this mailing list, I often see many advanced uses of Solr, so I feel there’s still a very long way to go and many new things to learn. But when searching for open positions, there are very few openings related to Solr, most of them just mention it with Elastic as a very complimentary tool.
Can you point me in a direction where Solr specific experience could be useful? Or is it a too narrow area?
Thanks for reading

We are hiring Solr folks in India (Pune, specifically) and the US. We need people with a broad skillset, not necessarily someone who has been working with Solr since 2004.
I know a bit about the progress of hiring in India, but very little in the US (although I know one name got passed on to the hiring manager in the US). If interested (and this goes for anyone on the list), get back to me ASAP as we are already narrowing down interview candidates in India.
In any case, might be a good fit if the geography is right.
