Interested Mahout developers in the UK (or Europe?)

Given my day job, from time to time I run across startups in the UK
(and western Europe) that are interested in this whole data mining /
machine learning at scale thing and I get a call asking if I know any
expert developers.

Are there any devs out there who could very possibly be interested in
contract work or full-time work at a startup doing Mahout-like things?
They would almost all be in the UK, but some don't mind working
remotely from Europe.

If that describes you, you can respond to me privately and I'll make
sure to make the connection when I see some interesting stuff going on
here.

One additional hint: Apache has a mailing list called jobs@apache.org -
if you are looking for a job, it might be a good idea to subscribe
there (traffic really is manageable), if you are looking for people, it
might be a good idea to at least CC: that mail address.

Shameless plug: Adding yourself to the list of Mahout users on our
Powered By page certainly drives attention to the cool stuff you
are doing - especially when including details. ;)

(adding the subject line)

To repeat exactly what Markus said with a different company name ( :) ),
meebo is definitely interested in hiring those interested in data
analytics<http://www.meebo.com/jobs/openings/data/>and highly-scalable
machine learning <http://www.meebo.com/jobs/openings/server/> folks.  I
really hate shameless self-promotions, but what we're doing is actually
really awesome from an ML perspective, so I figured I'd share.  I'm actually
working on all this stuff (which is why I'm on user@); not a recruiter.

Feel free to email me with questions/whatnot.

Thanks!

Hi there,

now that someone else made a move on open positions, let me add mine: 
Yahoo! is always looking for good devs in the large scale machine 
learning world. Feel free to email me directly for the details of some 
of the positions I know of right now.

Take care,

Markus

Just to clarify - we're not one of the start-ups that contacted Sean.

I'm one of those start-ups - we're currently investigating the use of Mahout
- but we will be *very* interested in getting some good devs on board.

We're also in the UK.

Cheers Niall
