Job description

We don't need a DevOps Engineer who knows everything about Pulumi; we need one curious enough to find out what they don't. At VMware the $82,000 - $119,000 matters, sure, but so does owning the technology outcome with 3 years of Packer behind it.

Key Responsibilities

• Own the goal-oriented edge cases in VMware's Terraform billing nobody else wants to touch
• Build the deeply collaborative Packer feature that wins back the CA accounts VMware lost
• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to a strong code-review culture
• Harden VMware's Nginx auth so the CA audit comes back clean
• Tune Go caching so VMware survives the Fresno launch spike on the same hardware

What You'll Bring

• Authorized to work in the United States without sponsorship
• Real proficiency with ELK Stack, plus willingness to learn Serverless fast
• Comfortable presenting ideas to stakeholders at every level
• Demonstrated capacity to mentor or support mid-level teammates
• 3 years that taught you which corners can be cut
• Sound instincts for reading a room you've never been in before
