About the Position
Lead Engineer
Drive everything about our product
OpsStack, DevOps, and IT are entering a brave new world of dynamic systems, faster deployments, hybrid environments, continual change, and more. We have a mass of disjointed point solutions but no full-stack full-lifecycle platforms. Moving to micro-services, serverless, Lambda, and hybrids makes this more complex & harder to document, manage, or troubleshoot. Ops is not getting easier, nor their tools better. What if we can fix all this? What if we can provide a single unified operations platform integrating design, build, change, monitoring, expert systems, reverse engineering, security, performance, SRE, logging, CMDB, audit, and much more? For the full-stack (cloud, OS, services, serverless) and full life-cycle (forward, reverse, change engineering and management)? This is not easy, but our decade of deep experience managing the world's largest systems has given us the background and expertise to do what must be done. We've been building these tools for many years, so now is the time to bring these to the world at large. You can be part of this team, as we finish productizing and building out the first generation of this platform, laying the groundwork to take over the world of operations. You will also be among the first hires, and thus set the tone and culture of the company for the years to come.
Responsibilities
Lead SaaS Engineers are responsible for driving every aspect of the continued development of the OpsStack product, including architecture, processes, tools, deployment, security, standards, and much more. OpsStack's initial development was done over many years by ChinaNetCloud, our company in China, which has spent 10 years managing large-scale Internet operations and developed the underlying tools and technology that became OpsStack. This was continually lead and architected by our American team originally from Silicon Valley. Lead Engineers in the US will take over development leadership from the China-side team and drive it forward. The current codebase is a world-class PHP-Laravel, React, and Python system of considerable complexity and modularity. This is a large system, as its job is to take over virtually all of online operations for systems from one to hundreds of millions of users, on a global scale. At the forefront of Cloud and DevOps technologies; however, and it won't be easy, in part as we have decades of experience in this and a huge vision of the future - you'll have to run to catch up. There is a LOT to understand, and it'll feel overwhelming at first, but we'll help you through it. This is the perfect role for a mid-level Engineer looking to move up and lead a product and a team.
Requirements
- Several years of software development experience, at increasingly senior levels. Ideally in SaaS, IT, and Cloud.
- Experience managing Linux Systems and managing AWS cloud resources.
- Experience in DevOps, CI/CD, Kanban, and Scrum processes.
- Experience in PHP web apps, especially with Laravel, Symfony, and similar frameworks.
- Serious JS experience, especially with frameworks, ideally with React.
- Belief in testing, MVP features, and iterative design & implementation.
- Ability to make tradeoffs between doing everything perfectly today and delivering what customers and the company needs.
- Cultural fit: work hard, speak up a lot, go to bat for the customers, and the team, all the time.
We Offer
- Opportunity to be among the first hires and set the tone and culture of the company.
- Work on a cutting-edge, large-scale, and complex system.
- Collaborate with a team that has decades of software development and operations experience.
