Role : DevOps Engineer
Exp : 2 – 5 Years

The ideal candidate loves being the person who interfaces between the dev team and the server maintenance/hosting team, understands technology deeply at both the server level and at the development level, understands where the gaps often are between these two, and is excited about filling those gaps and taking proactive steps to prevent emergencies from ever happening.

This person is deeply familiar with a variety of monitoring solutions (both server and applications), AWS and Azure (nice to have), and is familiar with industry standard security software including scanning, IDS, IPS, and other security focused utilities. He/she should be able to assess IT and security coverage, build process coverage, and help roadmap growth, changes, and updates to keep the system current, modern, and effective.

Many people love server maintenance, others love writing code, but you are excited about the place where these two meet; finding any small detail—whether code, software or data related that could one day become a bigger issue—and taking action to correct course before anyone else has even noticed.
You care about the deployment process, continuous integration, and quality control – some organizations call this role ‘Application Infrastructure Engineer’; others call it DevOps Engineer; either way, you care about the application infrastructure, environment, data, code, and processes. You want to make sure that all the important components of application management are addressed and addressed thoroughly, systematically and cleanly.

You have a strong desire to automate information delivery and reporting, especially about potential issues; ‘preventative maintenance’ is your byword.
