I'll put keywords upfront: AWS, Postgres, Docker, EC2 Container Service, Elastic Beanstalk.
And now, the prose: We currently use OpsWorks to deploy to AWS. We've been working with a contractor to build a new stack, where a CI/CD build packages a Docker image that is deployed to AWS and Elastic Beanstalk. We're looking to have someone join the team and assume ownership this (and other) projects. This is a senior operations position, with the possibility of building a DevOps team.
We're tackling the absolutely massive mortgage market. We're bringing modern, elegant software to a field that still relies on fax machines and manilla envelopes. We bring security, efficiency and joy to a paper-based pillar of the US economy. Consequently, we need a secure stack, ideally with pen testing and intrusion detection. We see security as an ongoing process and not as a one-time achievement.
We trust our team members to make smart decisions. This means we value both independent work as well as seeking collaboration. We're becoming ubiquitous in one segment of the market and we're looking to expand further.
Skills & Requirements
* Experience deploying to AWS.
* Experience with tuning and scaling Postgres.
* You build a stack that is secure by default, while still actively monitoring against threats.
* Experience with auto-scaling servers.
* Experience with load testing is nice.
* Experience creating a CI/CD build that maximizes coding joy.
* You're self-motivated. To us that means when you get an interesting problem, you will rip into it until you understand its nuances and perhaps have a glimpse of the solution.
* Knowledge of Rails is a huge plus.
You would be the 10th member of on a fast-growing technical team. This means helping to form a healthy and happy culture. We strive to be respectful of each other's time and point of view. We're learning how to do this together. We're creating a place where it's OK to fail, and where you know the team has your back the whole way through.
