Descripción del empleo

You're a DevOps expert - been there, done that. Linux isn’t just your OS; it’s your daily driver. You thrive in the terminal, love automation, and get a kick out of optimizing and tinkering with infrastructure. You enjoy building, maintaining, and scaling systems, making them secure, efficient, and rock solid.

Ops is your passion—you tinker, experiment, and maybe even run a homelab for fun. You’re all about improving pipelines, monitoring, and reliability, and you bring that mindset to everything you do.

You’re also not afraid to get your hands dirty because even the worst legacy infra deserves love. That host, the maintenance of which we abandoned back in ‘05, will not migrate itself, right?

In this role, you will get an opportunity to work with seniors on senior problems (except when not), tinker, and make sure things just work—whether it’s self-hosted, in the cloud, or somewhere in between. New things, and old things too.

Before you dig in to what we’re looking for, consider that at Xcelirate, our success is built on a foundation of strong values that shape how we work, collaborate, and grow. We don’t just focus on what gets done - we care just as much about how it gets done. Our quarterly performance reviews assess how our team operates with Ownership & Accountability, taking full responsibility for our work and following through with care and precision. We strive for Competence & Craftsmanship, ensuring high-quality execution and continuous improvement. And we believe in Collaboration & Respect, fostering a culture where clear communication, teamwork, and mutual trust drive success. These values guide everything we do, from daily decisions to long-term strategy, and we seek team members who align with and embody them in their work. If you thrive in an environment where impact, integrity, and excellence matter, you’ll find a home at Xcelirate.

Responsibilities include:

• Contribute to and enhance the DevOps team
• Solve complex problems with scalable, strategic solutions
• Support and maintain infrastructure
• Design architecture for internal and external services
• Prioritize automation
• Collaborate to find optimal solutions
• Deliver features on schedule
• Implement infrastructure and application best practices
• Participate in on-call rotations

• 10+ years of Linux experience, including 7+ in a DevOps/SRE role
• Expert in Linux administration and configuration management (Ansible preferred)
• Extensive experience with self-hosted infrastructure (on-premise servers, bare metal)
• Good working knowledge of major cloud providers (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, DigitalOcean)
• Familiarity with enterprise hardware management (iDRAC, IPMI, RAID, firmware updates)
• Proficient in virtualization & containerization (Docker, KVM, VMs)
• Strong scripting & automation skills (Bash, Python)
• Deep knowledge of CI/CD pipelines & deployment automation
• Experience maintaining large-scale web projects (nginx, PHP, MySQL)
• Expert-level Git skills & version control best practices
• Strong knowledge of networking & security (firewall management, VPNs, IDS/IPS, TLS, access control)
• Experience securing self-hosted environments (hardening, monitoring, compliance)
• Strategic mindset with a track record of improving infrastructure reliability & efficiency
• Excellent communication, mentoring.
• Familiarity with Agile methodologies, TDD, and infrastructure best practices
• Experience with task tracking tools (e.g., Jira & Notion)
• Based in Barcelona or willing to relocate
