We're aggressively hiring at Wonolo for a Senior DevOps/SRE with Prometheus experience.
We're now a remote-first company meaning that we've let our office space go and are now a fully work-from-home distributed team.
Our culture is second-to-none! The empathy and support we show each other is unparalleled. We have direct access to and support from our executive team and we all connect on a personal level. We value diversity and inclusion - it's not just a number to report! Half of our leadership team and board of directors is diverse, which is unheard of in U.S. based technology companies.
Our "secret sauce" is genuinely helping to improve the lives of our users/demographic we serve and are extremely user focused and data-driven. Each quarter we all do Wonolo job (including our executives) to help us stay connected to our users/customers. Gathering first-hand insight is very valuable. We even require companies to pay a "living" wage opposed to "minimum" wage. It's important to us that people make enough money to support themselves financially.
What you'll do:
- Establish a standard of high availability and reliability for Wonolo’s production systems.
- Influence the direction of our technical roadmap.
- Create and administer infrastructure -- cloud services, hosts, monitoring tools -- for highly reliable and scalable web applications and data stores.
- Build automated tooling to configure and maintain our systems and services.
- Participate in an on-call rotation.
- Projects you might work on:
- Implementing spot autoscaling for our Nomad hosts.
- Improving our deploy pipelines.
- Leveraging Kubernetes for our data pipelines and more.
- Testing our cloud infrastructure with InSpec.
- Designing our CDN strategy.
- Investigating Prometheus and Thanos.
Who you are:
- You have experience in DevOps or Site Reliability for a company with fast-paced growth.
- You are knowledgeable in configuration management with a framework such as Chef, Puppet or Ansible (we use Chef).
- You are comfortable with AWS, UNIX/Linux (we use Ubuntu), and have experience with database administration (we use Postgres and Redis).
- You are experienced in continuous integration practices & tools (Jenkins, Travis CI, Teamcity, CircleCI, Buildkite etc).
- You are proficient with one or more programming languages like Ruby, Python or Go.
- You are inclined to automate, but can discern when automation isn't the best solution and present alternatives.
- You strongly believe in the importance of security, and enjoy the idea of partnering with engineering to ensure the integrity of our customers' data.
- You are curious in nature, browse HackerNews, star/fork/contribute on Github and keep yourself busy learning every week.
- You don’t believe in the YAGNI (You Aren’t Gonna Need It) principle but understand the tradeoffs when it comes to technical debt.
Technologies we use and those we are exploring:
- AWS (EC2, Aurora Postgres, KMS, SSM, SNS, Route53 etc).
- Chef, Test-Kitchen, InSpec.
- Docker
- Quay, Artifactory, Harbor.
- Buildkite
- Hashicorp (Consul, Nomad, Terraform, Vault).
- Sensu, Prometheus, Grafana.
- Fabio, nginx, Envoy.
