Staff Engineer - Devops

Our DevOps team is at the forefront of innovation, driving high-performance and highly scalable emerging technologies with Infinia Software Defined Storage (SDS). Infinia SDS is designed to support multiple client protocols, delivering robust, enterprise-grade storage solutions for cutting-edge use cases. With a global presence of expert developers, QA, and DevOps engineers, we are transforming the way software-defined storage operates in both on-premises and cloud environments.

Why Join Us?

We provide a unique blend of on-premises and cloud DevOps - more than just managing infrastructure, you will have the chance to deploy critical applications on Kubernetes and shape infrastructure as code (IaC) from the ground up. Here’s a glimpse of the exciting work we do:

Infrastructure-as-Code: Constantly evolving our infrastructure with Terraform, Python, and Bash, building cloud infrastructure on GCP with future plans to into other cloud providers.

On-Premises Excellence: Develop and deploy self-sustaining infrastructure that delivers mission-critical applications faster, while enhancing flexibility and performance.

Build and Release Acceleration: Engineer build acceleration solutions by integrating with Nexus/JFrog Artifactory, streamlining build workflows, and connecting tools to self-managed artifact repositories.

Cutting-Edge Tools We Use:

Our infrastructure and tooling reflect our commitment to modern DevOps practices. Here’s how we empower engineers to stay at the top of their game:

Kubernetes and ArgoCD: Orchestrate scalable deployments with Kubernetes and leverage ArgoCD for automated and declarative application management.

Packer + MaaS: Create custom bare-metal images with Packer and deploy them seamlessly using MaaS (Metal as a Service) for Ubuntu.

K3s + KubeVirt: Build a self-provisioning VM environment to empower developers and QA engineers.

Infinia & Harbor: Utilize Infinia for S3 storage services, and Harbor for container image management.

GitHub Enterprise (GHE) + Actions: Collaborate using GHE, with DevOps leading the development and maintenance of workflow actions for CI/CD pipelines.

Docker: Build containerized environments for both cloud and on-prem applications.

Quay & GCS Buckets: Manage external artifacts with Quay and Google Cloud Storage (GCS).

What You’ll Work On:

Self-Deployable Environments: Our DevOps engineers are building a seamless, self-service environment to empower developers and QA teams.

Bare-Metal & Cloud Integration: Get hands-on experience with bare-metal provisioning using MaaS, while deploying infrastructure in hybrid models with GCP and expanding to other cloud providers.

Streamlining Build Systems: We integrate tools like Nexus/JFrog Artifactory to accelerate builds and optimize workflows, ensuring smoother development and faster delivery.

Constant Innovation: We believe in continuous improvement, constantly enhancing infrastructure-as-code to make deployments faster, more reliable, and easily replicable.
