Description du poste

Do you want to build and manage scaleable, self-healing, globally-distributed systems?

Join this dynamic team of SREs who keep this organisation fast, available, and growing, connecting users to great local businesses. They work in both the dev and systems worlds, implementing key parts of the core architecture and supporting devs as they try to do the same.

As part of this company, you’ll get the opportunity to tackle interesting challenges that you can only find at the kind of scale that serves over 100 million users per month. You'll work to empower product teams and developers: spinning up infrastructure should always be a git commit and a code review away: automation and self-service are at the core of what this team does.

What will you be doing?

• Work closely with developers in supporting new features and services
• Build tools to monitor site stability and performance
• Scale AWS-based infrastructure (no racking servers or swapping hard drives here!)
• Troubleshoot site issues using industry-leading tools like Splunk and SignalFX
• Automate everything with Puppet, Git, Jenkins, and Terraform
• Develop custom tools when off-the-shelf solutions don’t work
• Design new systems, tests, and procedures

What You’ll Bring to the Role:

• A mastery of Linux
• Command of your favourite modern programming language: Python, Ruby, Go, Rust, Java, C++, etc.
• A solid understanding of fundamental technologies like TCP/IP, HTTP, and DNS
• Knowledge of best practices related to security, performance, and disaster recovery
• Experience with web server configuration (Apache/Nginx/HAproxy), monitoring, trending, and high availability
• Strong scripting and automation skills
• Expertise in Configuration Management (Puppet/Ansible/Chef/etc.)
• Experience with public cloud platforms (we use AWS, but Azure/GCP are fine) and related tooling (Terraform, etc.)
• Experience with Docker or other container technologies
• Excellent communication and documentation skills
• Full responsibility for projects from day one, an awesome team, and a dynamic work environment
• Competitive salary with equity in the company, a pension scheme, and an optional employee stock purchase program
• 25 days paid holiday initially, rising to 29 with service
• Flexible working hours and meeting-free Thursdays
• Regular 3-day Hackathons and weekly learning groups, always with interesting topics
• Opportunities to participate in events and conferences throughout Europe and the US
• Public transportation season ticket loan and £50 per month toward any exercise of your choice
• Monthly personal development allowance
• Central location, a fully stocked kitchen, adjustable sitting/standing desks, quarterly offsites, locally roasted coffee, happy hours, and more!
