  • Collaborate and engage with infrastructure and platform teams to support frictionless workflows for our end users.
  • Contribute to 24/7 platform reliability, scalability and performance tuning.

Required Skills and Experience:

  • Experience with Linux systems.
  • Hands-on experience with Terraform/Ansible or other IaC tools.
  • Experience of working in a DevOps / SRE environment.
  • Programming experience in Python or similar.
  • Understanding and ability to debug compute, networking, storage in large production environments.

“Nice To Have” Skills and Experience:

  • Exposure to large-scale or multi-tenant environments.
  • Exposure to GitOps driven and CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, ArgoCD. FluxCD, etc)
  • Contribution to Open Source projects!

In Return:

You will work on a modern internal platform used by engineering teams across the organization and globe.

You will develop your skills across cloud, software and platform engineering.

We offer a collaborative environment focused on continuous improvement and learning.
