for:
Building and supporting resilient and scalable systems that achieve

Administration of a variety of applications and services for both

Balancing the need to "keep things running" with allocating time to
long-term, high-impact projects.
Mentoring or training other team members and colleagues from other
roles.
Participating in on-call rotations.
Troubleshooting and resolving production issues
(hardware/software/applications).
You might be a good fit as an Infrastructure Engineer if you:
Have demonstrated the ability to learn new technologies that may or
may not be related to what you already know.
Make sound decisions and work well both autonomously and with a
team.
Have at least 5+ years experience in Linux systems administration,
especially coming from a DevOps-oriented background.

priorities in a fast-paced environment.
Can communicate well and can walk others through complex processes
and problems easily and naturally. This includes both written and
verbal communications.
Jump at the chance to deploy automated solutions to eliminate
toil.
What we'll provide you:
A great compensation plan
A positive and generative work environment enabling you to develop
your skills, collaborate with other professionals and invest in
others.
