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. At any given point, this may involve ssh'ing into a machine, updating a configuration manifest, troubleshooting a running system, spinning up a docker registry, or providing guidance on the best deployment options for a new service.

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.

More information about Ksplice is available at http://ksplice.oracle.com/, and you can contact me by email at travis.jensen@oracle.com for more detailed specs. Oracle is an equal opportunity employer.

Tech stack includes MySQL, Linux, Python, Django, Puppet, Ansible.

It seems unusual for a nonprofit to be able to offer what appear to be market-rate salaries for technical positions. Wonder how they do it. Couldn't find much info on the site about where, exactly, their funding comes from.

I looked at their 2016 Form 990 (most recent available on Guidestar) and it looks like vast majority of funding is from contributions and grants, and revenue exceeds expenses, so that's a good sign.

Flowminder Foundation is looking for a senior developer to help us open source, and augment our mobile phone data analysis stack.

We’ve used this tool to do things like monitor displacement after natural disasters and conflicts and help understand disease spread in low and middle income countries.

Built on docker, python, and Postgres. We also increasingly use JavaScript for visuals, R if appropriate, and anything else that’s the right tool for the job at hand.

Diverse and friendly team of mostly academics (although we’re looking to increase our diversity on that score), free terrible coffee, lot of opportunity for travel to unusual places.

We can’t currently sponsor visas, but are open to some degree of remote working.

Full job spec is at http://www.flowminder.org/vacancies/senior-developer
