If your idea of fun is ingesting terrabytes and terrabytes of data 24 hours a day, then we've got the job for you. Papertrail is looking for a lead ops engineer to help build, improve, and manage our high performance stream processing pipeline. This is truly one of those jobs where you and your developers/operations friends can use the tool you operate every single day. The Papertrail stack is largely Ruby, Java, Scala, and MySQL. Lots and lots of MySQL. This is your opportunity to come in and lead a small operations team at a company that is growing every month. Plus, with the backing of Solarwinds behind it, there are no worries about running out of VC funding, or where the next round is coming from. We're a small distributed Ops team where everyone writes code, operating an existing successful business and we're looking for the next piece of the puzzle to collaborate in taking our operations engineering to the next level. If this sounds interesting to you, we'd love to open up a conversation about whether we're a good match, setup some interviews and a coding test. You can find the contact info above. About the company: Papertrail manages billions of log messages for operations-savvy companies. Papertrail provides time-saving log tools, flexible system groups, team-wide access, long-term archives, charts and analytics exports, monitoring webhooks, and 45-second setup. It's all your logs in one place, and it "just works". Papertrail is a wholly owned subsidiary of Solarwinds, Inc.
