The Opportunity:

Engineering to make a system more resilient and efficient frees up time and money to build more capabilities. Whether you come from a background in network engineering, systems administration, or software development—if you have a passion for making systems better, we need you!

You’ll build in redundancy, implement monitoring tools, and automate wherever possible. You’ll reduce toil by scripting routine tasks and automating self-repair. This is your chance to leverage your expertise with Kubernetes environments in the cloud while assisting junior engineers and broadening your knowledge base.
