Looks like webdev, nothing interesting for me. I would be interested in realtime data charts during casting. But I understand that ggtracker business model is based on ads, so it needs to be web based.

And about "hacking" topic. It is quite clear that to hack means you attach/change/sniff/crack something else. Hacking a waterpipe means you want some juice out of it for yourself, right? GGtracker just actually analyze stuff, using thirdparty lib. That lib might have used hacking techniques to get parsing alorithms, who knows.

I would rather choose "Analyze replays" instead of "Hack StarCraft". But yeah, I woudn't click on this thread if I saw "Analyze replays"...

I'd assume that kind of data sniffing would be considered breaking the TOS and could lead to a ban in bnet.

True and false. Your antivirus reads SC2 memory too. Such a tool would give that data only a meaning. I would love to see more charts of income, etc. in game. Something like GGTracker live, where they would have to use other lib than sc2reader. I mean, I do not care about games I played, I want that information live and see it during gameplay (not yours ofc, that is considered cheating).

For those interested: the original term for "hacker" means someone writing code in an unstructured manner. Now, of course, it has a different meaning.

So an unskilled programmer would be called a hacker, your full of it :D

But don't worry it's often misused for some unstructured or sloppy piece of code. This implies lack of understanding, which is usually not the case with hackers. A hack may just as well be the prettiest written piece of code, even better written than the original program. A hack merely implies that someone used the system (hacked into the system) for which it was not designed.

Damn, if only this were 1 year from now and I had my CompSci degree already lol.

Here's to hoping that esports jobs for programmers don't go anywhere in the next few years!

Hmm, this seems interesting! Would be nice to hack some Starcraft. As it is ok to work from remote, I may actually apply to this.

Become an entrepeneur? I mean it's not for everyone, but nowadays you can outsource almost anything besides of course your main business activity

i think "hack starcraft" is a bad title for this.

It's actually more of the term that a lot of modern programmers use. Hackers by definition are what most people would call programmers, hackers are not people that try to break into computer systems to steal info, those are "breakers", As such, the people that would be serious applicants for this type of job would know what "Hack" means in this case.


Actually, those you call "breakers" are called "crackers"

This looks like a pretty cool gig. I'm still in school but will point a couple of my software engineer friends towards this.

Thanks everyone for the good wishes!

Tarrius, our requirements are spelled out in the "Skills & Requirements" section I'll add that education is good, but the more critical thing is a track record of completing large projects independently that have been used and enjoyed by real live users.

Get.Midikem, we're in python, ruby and Javascript currently, although I'm open to shifting from RoR to Java/Play.

The plan is to hire someone for a full-time position, although in exceptional cases I'd consider something like half-time.


Regarding "Hack Starcraft"… while you won't be hacking on the Starcraft application itself, you'll be getting very deep into the nitty-gritty of how Starcraft really works.

Thanks guys, good questions and I appreciate all the interest!

Is this a properly salaried or for-equity position?

Yeah, like would someone get payed for doing this full-time?? Otherwise, there won't be many, if any, people qualified that can't get a well paying job elsewhere and would honestly be into doing this.

Would there be any market to have people who are only really fluent in Java apply? I graduate in 2 months, and would like to know if this is a full-time 5 days a week job or is it something you can during the weekend or evenings?
