Platform Engineer – DevOps, K8s, Kubernetes, Docker, Helm, Cloud, AWS, GCP, Azure, CircleCI, Redis, Cassandra, DynamoDB, ScyllaDB, Postgres, Golang – US / Remote Full Time

Our client, a growing, early-stage startup in the Data Privacy Management Automation space, is looking for a highly skilled Platform Engineer to work in a cloud DevOps capacity.

You are a good fit for this position if really know about scalable infrastructure, and have run production services in the cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure) and know where it’s awesome and where it hurts. You want to automate anything you’ve done more than twice, can write a one-liner for anything, but know when not to, and are fluent in at least one programming language (preferably Go, but any language will do). If you can’t go to sleep knowing your tests or monitors are failing, and love to learn new things and do so quickly, then we want to speak with you.

Responsibilities:

• Provide expertise in the design, implementation, and operation of scalable distributed systems to assist development teams in making the right decisions early
• Develop new methods and tools to automate and self-heal production environments
• Apply software development workflows to operational environments
• Test and tune newly developed systems to prepare them for production deployment and ensure maximum performance at minimum cost
• Automate packaging, deployment, and configuration of internally developed applications
• Measure everything, providing critical operational insight into our applications
• Become and stay an expert in our internal applications, from the high-level architecture down to the code
• Implement new application features, especially features supporting operational excellence: stability, scalability, redundancy, etc.
• Build tools that make your colleagues more effective
• Lead, coach and grow our DevOps practice by bridging development, Ops and QA
• Become and stay an expert in current and emerging technologies and tools
• Contribute to Open Source solutions and communities we use wherever you can
