We’re looking for bright minds with great communication skills and a knack for solving complex problems. What you know today is only a foundation to support what will be needed for tomorrow, so your ability to learn and apply new technologies and techniques quickly is imperative. You must be a self-starter, team focused, and driven to consistently improve the environments you support.

**The Role:**
You’ll be part of a global team supporting multiple SaaS environments that help make the world a safer place. We use Azure as our core, but host on multiple platforms due to specific needs and our rapid pace of development and acquisition. The environment is rapidly changing from IaaS to PaaS to server less. So, you’ll need to both apply your current skillsets and learn new things on a daily basis to push the business forward. While you’ll ultimately need a diversity of expert level skills to succeed, having deep understanding and experience in just a couple of areas (cloud infrastructure, scripting, automation, etc) may just get you in the door to a great career…

The essential skills for this project are

**Strong problem-solving skills:**
- Ability to communicate effectively with multiple disciplines
- Solid foundation in either IT or Software Engineering
- Linux systems administration
- Open source configuration & automation
- Strong Ansible or other config management tools
- Experience with Apache Hadoop, Kafka, Spark, Presto, Hive (so any clustering, big data & data processing open source tools)
