What we are looking for:
We're looking for an experienced IT Operations Engineer to help run and evolve the infrastructure powering our core products. You'll be responsible for the health, performance, and reliability of a large fleet of Debian Linux servers and the operational lifecycle of our in-house software stack. This is a hands-on role for someone who's comfortable operating distributed, highly-available systems at scale and enjoys the intersection of systems engineering, automation, and production support.
- Own the day-to-day administration of a large-scale fleet of Debian-based servers (bare metal and/or virtualized), including provisioning, patching, hardening, and lifecycle management
- Build and maintain configuration management and automation to keep server configuration consistent and reproducible across environments
- Monitor system health, capacity, and performance; proactively identify and resolve bottlenecks before they impact production
- Manage package repositories, OS upgrades, kernel updates, and security patching cycles across the fleet
- Maintain networking, DNS, firewall, and load-balancing configuration supporting the server estate
- Operate, monitor, and support our in-house systems in production, including release deployment, hot code upgrades, and node/cluster management
- Work closely with the software engineering team to troubleshoot issues
- Tune system performance and stability at scale
- Support release engineering practices and coordinate rolling deployments and rollbacks
- Deploy, monitor, and maintain in-house services including build pipeline integration, packaging, and runtime configuration (e.g., JVM tuning, systemd units for Rust binaries)
- Diagnose and resolve production issues spanning application, runtime, and OS layers across different language stacks
- Collaborate with development teams to define deployment standards, health checks, and observability requirements for new services
- Design and maintain monitoring, alerting, and logging infrastructure (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, ELK/OpenSearch, or similar) covering OS, application, and BEAM-specific metrics
- Build automated tooling and scripts (Bash, Python, Go) to reduce manual operational toil and improve incident response time
- Participate in an on-call rotation, respond to incidents, and drive root-cause analysis and post-incident reviews
