About the Team

Document Persistent Storage Service provides secure, resilient, and highly scalable persistence with simple, easy-to-use APIs. We build, expand and extend outstanding database, key-value and object storage applications to store and orchestrate documents in a SaaS cloud environment. Our team's ownership is focused primarily on private data centers services but with an eye on growing the public cloud ownership also.

About the Role

Join our dynamic team as a DevOps Engineer and play a crucial role in building and operating resilient and scalable infrastructure using ground breaking technologies like Chef, Ansible and Public cloud. This is a great opportunity to chip into critical applications where high availability and scalability are paramount. If you are passionate about testing, distributed database systems, concurrency, distributed storage, availability and system design, we encourage you to apply.

About You

You possess a expertise in deploying and operating databases or distributed systems, ideally using tools such as Chef or Ansible. You like to mentor junior developers in team and a strong team player.

What You'll Do:

  • Build and maintain highly available and scalable infrastructure to support critical applications.

  • Contribute to the development and operation of restful services, service oriented architectures, distributed systems, cloud systems, and microservices on Linux operating systems or equivalent.

  • Apply your experience with configuration management tools (Chef, Ansible, or Puppet), containerisation (Docker) to deploy and manage applications.

  • Collaborate effectively within a team to achieve common goals, demonstrating strong communication skills and attention to detail.

  • Participate in the design, maintenance, and improvement of highly available and fault-tolerant distributed software systems.

  • Contribute to and promote a strong testing culture, including unit, system, and integration testing, feature toggles, canary deployments, and gradual rollouts.

  • Engage with logging, monitoring, metrics, and statistics technologies to ensure system health and performance.

  • Participate in an on-call rotation to provide support and triage for production services after a training period.

Basic Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree or higher in a computer-related field.

  • Proficient to Linux operating systems and concepts, including memory and storage management, threading and concurrency, networking and sockets, and process management.

  • Expert in at least one scripting language such as Python, Ruby or Bash.

Other Qualifications (Desirable):
  • Strong collaboration skills and the ability to work effectively with teammates.

  • Expert in areas related to performance and scale, security, availability, deployment, and operations.

  • A strong understanding of testing methodologies and quality assurance practices.

  • Experience being part of a team responsible for a service in production, including on-call support and incident management.

If you are a motivated DevOps Engineer with a passion for building resilient and scalable systems, and you are excited about working with distributed database systems in a dynamic microservices environment, we encourage you to apply!


Our Approach to Flexible Work
 

With Flex Work, we’re combining the best of both worlds: in-person time and remote. Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work. We know that flexibility can take shape in many ways, so rather than a number of required days in-office each week, we simply spend at least half (50%) of our time each quarter in the office or in the field with our customers, prospects, and partners (depending on role). This means you'll have the freedom to create a flexible schedule that caters to your business, team, and personal needs, while being intentional to make the most of time spent together. Those in our remote "home office" roles also have the opportunity to come together in our offices for important moments that matter.


At Workday, we are committed to providing an accessible and inclusive hiring experience where all candidates can fully demonstrate their skills. If you require assistance or an accommodation at any point, please email
[email protected].

Are you being referred to one of our roles? If so, ask your connection at Workday about our Employee Referral process!

At Workday, we value our candidates’ privacy and data security.  Workday will never ask candidates to apply to jobs through websites that are not Workday Careers. 

  

Please be aware of sites that may ask for you to input your data in connection with a job posting that appears to be from Workday but is not.

  

In addition, Workday will never ask candidates to pay a recruiting fee, or pay for consulting or coaching services, in order to apply for a job at Workday.

What you need to know about the Chennai Tech Scene

To locals, it's no secret that South India is leading the charge in big data infrastructure. While the environmental impact of data centers has long been a concern, emerging hubs like Chennai are favored by companies seeking ready access to renewable energy resources, which provide more sustainable and cost-effective solutions. As a result, Chennai, along with neighboring Bengaluru and Hyderabad, is poised for significant growth, with a projected 65 percent increase in data center capacity over the next decade.
