Seeking a solid DevOps candidate.

The candidate must also have experience with programming in an Object-Oriented Programming language, preferably in Ruby, Python, or NodeJS. The candidate must have experience with using the AWS SDK in any of its supported languages: Ruby, Python, Java, NodeJS, etc. Java experience would be nice, but it is not mandatory. However, this experience will be vital in helping the development teams utilize AWS correctly. This person must be a friendly person willing to help in all cases as well as be familiar with architectural best practices. They must also have experience with Jenkins and building Jenkins Pipelines using Groovy, not just Jenkins Jobs using Bash. If the candidate knows how to create shared Jenkins libraries that is good as well. This is needed for the customers’ continuous integration and deployment efforts. The person must also have some familiarity with Puppet to help manage software installations. This person must also have a familiarity with Docker, building and maintaining containers, and some experience with the customer Operating System. Understanding how to support Mesos/Marathon is not required. However, this candidate needs to have an understanding of Docker Orchestration tools like ECS or Docker Compose. Above all else, the person must be a good team player with an eagerness to learn as well as teach when required. You will work primarily as a software engineer as the infrastructure as code solutions that we utilize require both a Software Engineering and Systems Administrator skillset.
