We’re looking for a seasoned Senior Operations Engineer to help us augment and build tools around our cloud­based environment services. You will work incredibly close with our engineering and product teams to help design, implement, and scale our predominantly Scala and MongoDB based architecture.

Here are the values we look for in a team member:

• You believe in automating everything — configuration management isn’t just a good idea but a requirement
• You prove your ideas with metrics and testing, no guesswork
• You can build tools to both detect operational issues but would rather build tools to prevent them
• You are dedicated to building a robust infrastructure free of single points of failure

Here’s what you need:

• 5+ years of experience in operations and Linux systems engineering
• Deep understanding of modern web technologies and data storage systems
• Strong skills in at least one systems programming language (Python, Ruby, Bash, Go, etc.) 
• Experience with Chef or Puppet (we use Chef)
• Expertise in at least one large­scale RDBMS or NoSQL database system (Mongo preferred)

And for bonus points:

• You’re a master of Chef
• You’ve helped build out large scale production systems using Amazon web services
• You live and breathe open source tools and most importantly, you give back to the community 
• You’ve run MongoDB in a highly­-available, production environment
