Your role

You will be based in our dedicated platform team, closely partnering with all development teams across engineering and our security team. Your role will be key in helping to scale our infrastructure, build out the underlying platform, evolve our systems and build new ones

Your day to day will be:

• Building and operating Kubernetes across development, test and production environments
• Working with developers to improve the operability, availability and observability of our systems
• Building and improving Continuous Delivery pipelines
• Defining and evangelizing SRE and DevSecOps best practices within product teams
• Championing application and infrastructure security as well as cost management
• Helping us to scale our system and services to handle client accounts of 30million+ contacts

Technology Stack:

Our clients interact with the Ometria platform through a single page web app, which uses both React and Ampersand.

The app communicates with the backend platform through various APIs written in Python 3. Although Golang powers some of our massively concurrent workloads, most of the platform is written in Python.

We run on AWS/Docker/Kubernetes configured with Terraform. Postgres, Redshift and S3 build our multi TB data backbone, while individual services are connected via asynchronous messaging protocols mainly using Kafka & SQS.

You should apply if you:

• Like the sound of how we like to work, the technologies we use and our product
• Enjoy learning new things, and solving real world problems
• Care about infrastructure as code and reproducibility
• Understand the importance and value of DevOps and SRE principles
• Enjoy working in a platform team and in cross functional product teams
• Believe in Continuous Delivery

Not essential, but useful if you have:

• Experience in building and deploying infrastructure in high traffic environments
• Experience in operating highly available cloud infrastructure
• Experience or knowledge about deploying applications to and operating Kubernetes in production
• Enjoy measuring anything and everything, and driving insight into systems and application performance
