Source: HN Who is Hiring
Posted by: mrnzc
Of the ten postings, Celonis is the most revealing — not because it says the most, but because of what it deliberately doesn't say. No stack. No role titles. No links to individual JDs. Just "Multiple Roles" in Munich and NYC, and a marketing paragraph that name-drops Siemens, L'Oréal, Uber, Citi, Airbus, and Vodafone.
The tech stack (by omission): Every other posting in this thread lists concrete technologies — React, Go, Java/Spring/MongoDB/GCP, Android, iOS. Celonis lists zero. When a "hyper-growth" company posts on HN without a single language or framework, they're not recruiting engineers who filter by stack — they're recruiting engineers who filter by logo. Process mining is fundamentally a data-heavy discipline (SAP/Oracle ERP log ingestion, graph analysis, columnar storage), but none of that appears here.
What the posting reveals:
Skills highlighted: None explicitly, which is itself the signal. In 2020 the process-mining space (Celonis, UiPath adjacencies, Signavio) is drafting off the RPA boom. The unstated stack is almost certainly heavy JVM, some SAP HANA / columnar analytics, and a growing ML layer for "conformance checking" and predictive process analytics.
Red flags:
Green flags: Real customers, real revenue, ONSITE in two expensive cities means real comp budget. If you want stability and enterprise-scale data problems, that's here.
