You will take the lead on managing the systems that makes our development process a success. You will play a significant part in crafting and implementing the future of our infrastructure that handles terabytes of data and millions of builds and automated tests each day.
Our infrastructure does more than just crunch numbers, it provides valuable insights that influence our software development process. For example: did a test fail because file operations took 100x longer than normal, and why? We create tools that track and analyze execution down to the operating system level.
Your role will be to develop the next generation of data centers, observability tools, and CI systems. You are willing to take ownership of everything from server hardware to internal websites and have a strong desire to learn new skills.
Duties:
- Designing and implementing our new data center using the latest hardware and tools
- Systems to distribute CI builds and tests across hundreds of machines
- Setting up a command center to centralize monitoring of hundreds of servers running thousands of VMs
- Inventing and maintaining ways to detect and handle trends in our millions of daily tests
Requirements
- Two or more years experience as a DevOps Engineer (or similar) role
- Bachelor's Degree or higher in Computer Science or related field, or an equivalent combination of education and experience
- Experience programming with Python in a professional environment
- Experience working with containers and virtual machines. For example: LXD, QEMU, Docker, VMWare, etc.
- Strong knowledge of administering Linux systems and networks
- Debugging skills that span networks, code, and operating systems
Additional useful qualifications:
- Understanding of build system concepts such as compilers, linkers, and cmake (or similar systems)
- Experience with professional software development (or desire to learn)
- Experience programming with C or C++ and scripting languages such as bash
- Working knowledge of developing websites with Django and React
- Desire to take individual responsibility for projects and take the initiative for improving existing systems
- Experience with CI pipelines and tools such as Jenkins
