Hello! Are you ready to Work from Home and transform your career?

Want to help our client’s build awesome solutions to accomplish their goals and vision? Are you interested in working from home with some of the best talent on the planet? Then keep reading.
About You
You love optimization and automation across multiple platforms and applications. Driving consistency for deployment and build processes is second nature for you. If you walk the line between software development and IT operations, we want to speak to you! We use modern tools, which means you’ll have the opportunity to work with software like Jenkins, Docker, Kubernetes, Amazon Web Services, Ansible, Terraform and much more.
You have the ability to develop Infrastructure as Code (laC) with tools like Terraform or CloudFormation. You are familiar and comfortable working with enterprise applications, ensuring high availability, scalability, and accountability. You are an expert at implementing cloud migrations to AWS and have working knowledge of cloud platforms and tools, including AWS serverless technologies.
You should have experience building CI systems enabling software delivery from the developer’s laptop all the way to production, with all the necessary steps in between.
You’re not necessarily a DBA but you can debug a query and you can tweak a database, relational and NoSQL, and you have used them in the cloud e.g. RDS, DynamoDB, Mongo, Elastic Search. Experience in bash and at least one other programming language would be nice to have. Background in software development? Even better!
You love learning. Engineering is an ever-evolving world. You enjoy playing with new tech and exploring areas that you might not have experience with yet. You are self-driven, self-learner willing to share knowledge and participate actively in your community.
You’re a team player. You’ve led and mentored others, both technically and with their development as engineers. You understand that being a “senior”engineer isn’t only about technical skills or time in the game;you work well with others. You are a senior expert who can not only coach others on best practices, but also help define those best practices
Having overlap with your team is critical when working in a global remote team. Modus requires all team members to overlap with EST morning hours daily. In addition, reliable high-speed internet is a must.
Things You Might Do

- Give back to the community via open source and blog posts
- Teach and be taught: Modus creates active teams that work in internal and external projects together, giving opportunities to stay relevant with the latest technologies and learning from experts worldwide
- Interact directly with internal and external clients to represent Modus and its value
