As a member of our Cloud Ops group, you will help continue to define our transformation towards an enterprise SaaS solution, hosting numerous top-tier customers. With a quickly growing customer base, we need creative engineers to help architect innovative solutions to meet our growing demand. You will be joining a team of highly talented, rapidly moving developers involved in nearly every aspect of the software development lifecycle. We’re looking for an engineer with a strong software development background who has experience creating build, test, and deployment pipelines. To be successful you will need a DevOps mentality of continuously improving the system, and a firm grasp on automation and cloud architectures. You should also be passionate about solving problems and developing creative solutions leveraging automation.
Your First 90 Days
In your first 30 Days, as your familiarity with the product and pipeline grows, your responsibilities and influence will grow as well. You, along with your team, will be responsible for the development, implementation, and continuous improvement of the new K8s pipeline. Further, you will collaborate with members of both the Product and Operations teams to ensure CI/CD pipeline requirements meet product needs and that operations can support new functionality.
Within your first 60 Days, you will fill in the gaps to have a well-tested, low-latency and highly available environment for our product operational needs. Working with the development team, you will start to implement out the gaps in creating and supporting a truly scalable product offering. You will be highly influential in the formation of the rest of our cloud development team as you help hire additional engineers. Your team will be responsible for supporting production environments.
Within your first 90 Days, you will help drive changes to the operational and development roadmap as we continue onboarding new and existing customers into our hosted production environments.
