A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOU
You have a genuine passion for DevOps and absolutely love learning new technologies. You
don’t just want to blindly use platforms and libraries; instead you have a desire to tear them
apart and figure out how they work inside. You love scaling and optimizing and seeing just how
far or how fast your projects can go. You see all of the building blocks in the community as
legos and want to use them to build innovative new solutions at a faster pace than ever.
● 6+ years of experience in a DevOps role leading critical projects.
● Intensive knowledge of core DevOps concepts and tools spanning source control,
CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code, monitoring, alerting, and logging.
● Deep knowledge of kubernetes and AWS (or a rival cloud) is mandatory.
● A history of designing and implementing complex products within AWS (or a rival cloud).
● Past experience optimizing cost over large-scale cloud infrastructure.
● Proficiency in Linux, with knowledge of networking and DNS.
● Experience with Big Data (Spark, Presto/Trino, etc) and streaming (Kafka/etc) is a plus.
