3-5 years of experience managing Linux environments with configuration management tools such as Chef, Puppet, or Ansible (Debian preferred).
Deep knowledge of at least one major cloud provider (AWS, Azure, GCP) and experience with IaaS components such as VPC, Storage, and IAM.
We offer a dynamic and collaborative environment with a "You build it, You run it" culture. You will join a follow-the-sun rotation, taking ownership of system alerts and using your troubleshooting and analytical skills to resolve issues.
