Posted 3 years ago
We Work Remotely
At Scandit, we develop real-time computer vision solutions for smartphones, wearables and robots that combine modern machine learning approaches with computer vision. To expand our engineering team, we are looking for a DevOpsEngineer.

We have varied infrastructure at Scandit. We run not just web applications but also handle non-trivial amounts of analytics events (tens of billions from hundreds of millions of devices), as well as process images from retail stores with computer vision algorithms. We also set up the infrastructure for CI and machine learning training both on-premise and in the cloud. It's never boring.

Our upcoming projects include processing tens of thousands of images taken by robots using machine learning algorithms. We need your help to scale the infrastructure for our projects and keep them running smoothly.


What You Will Do
This is what we are using. You don't need to know everything to apply.
  • Containerize projects with Docker and Linux-based images
  • Set up infrastructure using Terraform on AWS and Google Cloud (GCP)
  • Provision cloud infrastructure on Kubernetes (k8s) with Helm/Helmfile
  • Provision on-premise servers with Ansible and kubeadm
  • Perform regular disaster recovery testing
  • Keep our infrastructure services and dependencies up-to-date
  • Set up and monitor metrics using Prometheus and Grafana
  • Set up alerts for suspicious activity in logs
  • Be on an on-call rotation and respond to incidents
  • Write various helper tools in Python
  • Help us migrate existing applications to Kubernetes
  • Support and educate other teams how to use Kubernetes and Docker

  • GitLab Premium for code hosting and reviews as well as CI
  • Jira for ticket management
  • Confluence as a wiki for documentation
