  • Collaborating with engineering to design new production systems
  • Automating provisioning, configuration and deployment
  • Capacity planning and performance tuning
  • Evaluating and creating tools to scale our development and deployment process

Right in Your Wheelhouse

  • Cloud-based provisioning and configuration with AWS, RackSpace or another provider
  • Configuration tools like Chef, Puppet or CFEngine
  • Operating a large-scale Internet presence
  • Excellent communication skills and the ability to work in a cross-functional team
  • Experience with Ruby, Python, Java or Scala

It Would Be Cool if You Had Experience With

  • Big data processing systems and infrastructure - Hadoop, Storm, Scalding, Azkaban, Hive, etc.
  • Systems and application level reporting, monitoring and alerting with statsd, Graphite or Nagios
  • Familiarity with build tools (e.g. Maven) and building a continuous deployment pipeline
  • Tuning JVM-based applications
