Linux Infrastructure Engineer

We are looking for linux engineer for a superb product company

The Role:

As an Infrastructure Engineer here, you’ll be faced with a wide variety of challenges. You’ll be building and maintaining the infrastructure that our business relies on and interacting directly with the teams that will benefit from what we are creating.

This is an opportunity to collaborate with some of the most talented infrastructure engineers in the business, along with DevOps engineers, quantitative developers and researchers. We’re a diverse team spanning BG, UK and the US. We believe we get a lot of value out of working closely together and removing barriers.

We’re proud to build on and contribute to Open Source projects. It’s our belief that these let us improve our productivity and the quality of platform we provide. We value the transparency and spirit of open source, and try to live by those values here at the company. We actively contribute to open source software and encourage our coworkers to think about what we can return to the community.

We value a passion for technology and see leading edge techniques as a part of keeping the business at the forefront of its field. You’ll be doing work on HPC architectures, cloud technology, high performance storage as well as monitoring and visualisation techniques.

This is a hands-on technological role which also includes advising and guiding teams on architecture relating to our infrastructure.

Overview

We’re looking for people who have a broad knowledge of infrastructure technologies, and we’re interested in hearing if you bring a particular expertise into the team.

We’re a distributed team, which will require strong communication skills, and the ability to help set and keep priorities and manage time spent.

Passion for learning new tools and techniques, for improving reliability, performance and user experience in systematic ways.

Programming experience, you should feel confident reading and writing code. We don’t have any strong preferences on programming language you already know – but we primarily write Python here.

Experience with Linux and running fleets of Linux servers.

Knowledge of configuration management tools, whether that’s Chef, Puppet, Ansible or other.

Expectations

We’re not expecting you to be an expert at everything we have running – we have a supportive team, and you might find yourself picking up new skills and knowledge.

We run Linux servers, built on top of Openstack. We provision them with Terraform and configure them with Ansible.

Applications are deployed in Docker containers, and orchestrated with Kubernetes. Data processing often takes place in Spark. The data volumes and rates are large enough to provide some exciting challenges.

Tools are largely written in Python – and control and configure storage from NFS and S3.
