Job Description :
You are responsible for delivering an end-to-end solution from initial concept through finished solution in the area of automated build, deployment, monitoring and server infrastructure. You’ll need the ability to quickly understand needs, from a user perspective, and move from there to a working prototype that captures the essence of what the product should be. The ability to not only code and configure tools, but also assemble and integrate technology across disparate platforms is critical to success. This includes a deep understanding of systems, data structures, modern scripting and enterprise level languages as well as open source tools that can and should be leveraged to solve problems. You’ll work in a rapid environment where there aren’t always clear specifications or rules about how something should be done, where it’s up to you to figure things out and keep things moving. Some other things you’ll do regularly include:
Write code, integrate systems and build configurations to drive and innovate around our server based platform across the organization.
Leverage open technology such as Docker, Swarm, Saltstack, Bash, Javascript, Python,Git, Jenkins, Linux, HAProxy, AWS Cloud, ELK, Java, Kafka, MongoDB, Zookeeper, and plenty of others
Integrate systems using a wide variety of protocols like REST, SOAP, MQ, TCP/IP, JSON and others
Design and build automated code deployment systems that simplify development work and make our work more consistent and predictable. You’ll do this by orchestrating environment deployment from OS all the way through the application layers of a solution, using tools such as Docker, Saltstack, Jenkins and many others
Exhibit a deep understanding of server virtualization, networking and storage ensuring that the solution scales and performs with high availability and uptime
Create mechanisms/architectures that enable rapid recovery, repair and cleanup of faulty migrations with good understanding of fault tolerance and failure domains
Identify opportunities to deliver self service capability for the most common infrastructure and application management tasks
Create automated tests that easily plug into our automated code pipeline
Provide deep and detailed levels of monitoring across all levels of the application
Attend sessions where we eat pizza and talk about the latest technology
Help mentor other engineers and technical analysts
Plan sprints within your project team to keep yourself and the team moving forward
Move fast, break things, and determine how to fix them
