Open SRE positions at Disney Seattle, Glendale, Remote

[Atom Powers]

Ahoy friends,

These positions are in Disney corporate, Foundational Services, where I work.

I've been at Disney for six or seven years now as an SRE and it is
easily the best corporation I've worked for. Disney is a people first
company and every manager I've worked under values SRE/DevOps
practices, all the way up to the senior VP.

Please contact me if you want to know more.

P.S.
Apologies if this is the wrong list and please direct me to the
correct place. I haven't been active in LOPSA for a bit and don't
remember the correct lists for these things.

Re: "do these execs still work there"
I don't know. Disney Parks is a different division of Disney with
their own management structure. Rarely, we help support their projects
but I have no insight into their management structure or strategy.
Ditto with Hulu and Disney+ and etc.
P.S. At the beginning of the pandemic many of the execs in corporate
took "pay cuts" so that they could keep more people on the payroll
longer and I don't personally know any full-time employees that were
furloughed.

Re: Restructuring
Yeah ... it feels like we change the names of everything every two
years or so. But other than that the restructuring has had very little
effect on this team and our management structure. Disney is a very
large corporation and you will be able to find whatever you look for
somewhere in the company.

Re: Remote
I've been 100% remote since the beginning of the pandemic. Technically
I'm classified as hybrid but we have been told "don't come back to the
office until you are comfortable coming back to the office. Eventually
you should expect to be in the office twice a month." I've heard that
getting hired as 100% remote is more difficult for full-time employees
but I frequently work with people in all time zones so I know that it
can be done.

Re: Qualifications
As with most job descriptions these aren't written by the hiring
manager and have a lot of "requirements" that don't have anything to
do with the job. Almost everything runs in AWS (or Azure or GCP) and
is managed with Terraform and/or Chef and usually using GitLab CI/CD
pipelines. But see above about Disney being a large company.
