Essential Info:
- * Terraform or CloudFormation are overwhelmingly more important to me than Puppet, Chef, Ansible, etc.
* Cloud-specific experience is overwhelmingly more important than datacenter experience.
* Software development experience over systems engineering experience (but not to the exclusion of systems engineering experience).
* Kubernetes experience is fine, but we use core Docker.
Required Skills:
- Expertise with cloud- continuous-deployment- based software development lifecycles (e.g. CI/CD)
- Mastery of infrastructure automation technologies (like Terraform, CodeDeploy, Puppet, Ansible, Chef)
- Expertise in container/container-fleet-orchestration technologies (like Docker, Vagrant, Mesosphere, etcd, zookeeper)
- Cloud and container native Linux administration/build/management skills (e.g. AWS AMIs, Packer, etc.)
- Cloud database operations and deployment experience (e.g. RDS MySQL/Postgres/Aurora), Caching operations & deployment experience (e.g. memcache, Redis)
