I am a software engineer at Periscope Data (https://www.periscopedata.com), and discovered the company through a Who's Hiring thread, and we have hired at least two other software engineers through HN Who's Hiring since then as well.

I was searching for "scala" and they had the word "scalable" :-)

Hah, I have the same problem, but the flip side. I'm searching the "who wants to be hired" posts on behalf of my company (https://www.rallyhealth.com).

I search "scala" and get excited when I see 20 or so hits, but almost all of them are "scalable"

Try searching for "Scala " or "Scala." or "Scala,".
I was happy to discover Firefox now has a "whole words" option when searching.
Try looking for Lua jobs. Turns out a lot of people want to evaluate hires...
Hmmm, that's some food for thought... maybe I should stop pushing my HN job search tool[1]

You wouldn't have found your current job if you used it.
