- Hands-on experience with containers
- Practical Kubernetes knowledge, or very strong relevant fundamentals and the ability to become productive quickly
- Experience building, maintaining, or improving CI/CD pipelines
- Software-development experience in Python and/or TypeScript
- Ability to independently own technical implementation
- Understanding of modern software-engineering practices, including testing and version control
- Strong written and verbal communication skills in English
- Ability to collaborate effectively in a remote engineering team
- EU citizenship or other eligibility to work in the EU
Desirable
- Experience with both Python and TypeScript
- Understanding of the Node.js runtime and ecosystem
- Experience modernizing application deployment
- Experience migrating workloads toward containers
- Experience decomposing monolithic applications
- Experience with developer tooling or Developer Experience / DevEx
- Experience improving local-development environments
- Experience with build systems and testing infrastructure
- Software-hardening or application/platform security experience
- Experience improving performance or reliability of product platforms
What the job involves
- We are looking for a hands-on DevOps Engineer – Platform to join our Platform team and help evolve the foundations of the IP Fabric product
- Our Platform team is focused on making the product more stable, elegant to develop, performant, and secure
- The work sits at the intersection of software engineering, Linux, CI/CD, containers, quality, and developer experience
- Over the coming months, some of our biggest challenges include decomposing parts of our monolithic application into cleaner modules or services, modernizing deployment from a Debian package-based model toward containers, improving build and testing pipelines, and creating a much better local-development experience
- This is not a traditional infrastructure-operations DevOps position
- You will work directly on the product platform and the engineering systems surrounding it
- We are hiring at either L2 or L3
- Both levels are hands-on
- The difference is primarily the scope you can own independently
- Build and improve product-platform components and tooling using Python and TypeScript
- Help evolve the application from a monolithic structure toward cleaner modules and/or services
- Contribute to the design and implementation of our next-generation deployment model
- Help move the product from Debian package-oriented deployment toward an appropriate container-based approach
- Build, improve, and troubleshoot CI/CD pipelines
- Improve build and testing infrastructure
- Make local product development easier and more reliable
- Work with Kubernetes and containerized workloads
- Troubleshoot issues across application, runtime, container, Linux, and CI/CD boundaries
- Improve platform stability, performance, maintainability, and developer experience
- Participate in technical discussions and code reviews
- Collaborate closely with engineers across the product organization
- Apply good engineering practices around testing, observability, maintainability, and software quality
- Contribute to software hardening and secure engineering practices where appropriate
- L2
- At L2, you should be able to independently deliver a defined technical task end to end
- Once the task and expected outcome are clear, you can determine the implementation, investigate unknowns, write and test the solution, troubleshoot issues, and drive the change through completion without close technical supervision
- L3
- At L3, you should additionally be comfortable working from a broader technical goal
- Once familiar with the platform, you can identify what needs to change, break broader goals into concrete work, propose solutions, explain tradeoffs, and lead implementation
- You are also expected to contribute meaningfully to technical decisions led by other engineers
Our take
Network assurance has become critical in managing private network infrastructures. However, the growing complexities involved make it difficult for human operators to manage their networks efficiently. As a result, network automation without assurance becomes unpredictable, and organisations struggle to identify and address network vulnerabilities.
To address these challenges, IP Fabric has developed an automated network assurance platform. By leveraging IP Fabric, organisations can effectively navigate the intricacies of their networks, ensuring network automation is reliable and predictable. Furthermore, the platform helps improve network security by enabling organisations to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities, minimising the risk of blind spots and potential security breaches.
With strong backing from various investors, IP Fabric is committed to strengthening and expanding its market position. Through these strategic investments and the company's strong focus on growth, IP Fabric is poised to make a significant impact in the field of network assurance.
