Lead DevOps Engineer

Software Engineer Who Does DevOpsWe are looking for a Software Engineer who does DevOps. Experience in network systems and Linux systems administration would be highly preferable. You will be working to configure, maintain and test distributed networking systems. Unlike a traditional DevOps role, you will not always have direct access to deployments. Thus, you will be developing automated, self-healing systems. You will also be accepting a leadership position within the engineering team. Consequently, communication and teamwork skills are essential in this role. We live at the intersection of distributed systems and software defined networking; two fields with immense potential and a laundry list of client challenges. Automation and programmatic control of networking systems is a burgeoning field and this is your chance to join a team leading the revolution. If you are comfortable with a cutting edge tech stack and greenfield development then this position is for you!Requirements:sshbash, zsh or another common Linux shellExperience managing Linux serversDocker, rkt, or LXC containersFluent with git or another distributed version control systemExperience with Ansible, Puppet, Chef, Salt, or some configuration management systemExperience with any of the following is highly desirable:Virtualization systems such as KVM or XenMesos, Marathon, or KubernetesCloud orchestration systems such as OpenStackDistributed systems is especially desirable, particularly experience with ZooKeeperInfo on culture:-We are not a 9 - 5 pm. Folks have flexible hours. Some folks come in at 8 am, some at 9, and others at 10 pm but the expectation is to work hard - it is a startup. If folks have worked for organizations where engineers only work six hours a day - this is not the right spot for them because ultimately we need to get a product built. But, we do value flexibility in general. Have a day you need to work from home because contractors are going to be at your house? Cool. Have a day where you need to shoot across town for a meeting and don't want to come to the office that's in the opposite direction - cool, work from home that day. Feeling just off for the day, cool - work from home. Ultimately, we are a group of driven individuals set out to change the world of networking, we need people who have a hunger to build stuff. - We don't have a PTO policy. People take off time when they need it. As long as the work is getting done, take the time off you need. - We also like to have fun. Upcoming events: ax throwing and race car driving. - We are still building a product, GA is at the end of the summer. Need you to assess their willingness to be in a startup environment that is fast paced, dynamic, full of more questions than answers, and young from a business perspective. We just closed our Series A - for some folks that's freaky. We need folks comfortable with ambiguity. -We are a feedback, honest, and performance-driven culture. Folks have to be willing to operate in this environment. We are also highly collaborative - no one team drives the business. We are not one of those companies intent on being "engineering-focused." Everyone is important so no prima donnas please.
