Oracle | Remote
Ksplice is the leading technology that allows administrators to patch
the critical components of a Linux system on the fly with zero
downtime and zero disruption. We're looking for an experienced DevOps
engineer to join our team. As a DevOps engineer, you would be
responsible for automating the deployment, monitoring, and day-to-day
management of Ksplice's infrastructure for building and serving
critical security "hot fix" updates for various flavors of the Linux
kernel and for user space applications.
The Oracle Ksplice team is a remote team, so you must be comfortable
interacting remotely and working autonomously. We are a small team that
expects its members to be comfortable with self-directed work. We won't
micro-manage you, but, in return, we expect you to learn your job well
enough that you know what is important to work on.
More information about Ksplice is available at
<a href=", and you can contact me by email at
REDACTED_EMAIL for more detailed specs. Oracle is an equal
opportunity employer.
