Your inspiration:
Are you looking for a place where you’ll get to build a SDN provisioning platform one week, design a resilient multi-site network over dark fiber the next, and reverse engineer a serial protocol to monitor building infrastructure after that? A place that thrives on curiosity and creativity, where new services and ideas are constantly explored to find better solutions to challenges? Do you revel in the fine details of elegant design, with an appreciation for form as much as function? Would it be refreshing to have teammates who also value integrity, going that extra mile, and striving to make a difference? If you've answered yes to everything so far, this may be the perfect position for you!
We're looking for someone to be our lead technical team member, responsible for all system and network operations. This is a DevOps style role: while our focus is more on building systems and networking than application development, we strongly believe in automation, integration, and collaboration. There are no silos here! We should note that networking is at the core of our business and deep expertise is required for this position, however, more time on a daily basis will be spent building systems. A remarkable degree of versatility and experience across platforms and languages, as well as a natural mechanical inclination, enjoying hardware as much as software, is also required for this role. This encompasses everything from building an interactive video wall to composing streams and queries for Riemann. You should be the person all your friends go to when they’re stumped. In short, your kung fu must be the best. A keen eye for detail along with an appreciation for structure, organization, and documentation are critical too. Just being able to build something doesn’t cut it; you’ve also got to make it look good and be user friendly!
While it’s expected that you're a talented individual who can tackle anything, your focus should always remain on supporting our clients and your team; without them, nothing else really matters! It's absolutely vital that you're able to work collaboratively in a team, lead team projects, and mentor your team members.
