  • Build tools to reduce toil and increase insight into trouble spots
  • Implement effective governance controls in our development lifecycle
  • Manage resiliency design & planning, collection and analysis of availability metrics

  • 4+ years working with an object-oriented programming language (C/C++, Python, Java, etc.)
  • A Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, similar field of study or equivalent work experience
  • Demonstrated experience managing performance, availability and scale of large-sized systems
  • Hands on experience in production deployment and release management
