1350518 - Senior Site Reliability Engineer, Infrastructure

Cisco

Remote in the US,
 
Number Of Vacancies: 1
 

PROJECTS INCLUDE:

  • Designing and deploying very large virtualisation environments that scale, using VMWare and OpenStack.
  • Designing tooling that lets teams run seamlessly between our private cloud and AWS.
  • Building an automated service lifecycle platform to coordinate the full lifecycle of all infrastructure (server, storage, network and site).
  • Deploying comprehensive monitoring tools that provide insight into the performance and reliability of our infrastructure.
  • Automating testing infrastructure to accelerate the velocity at which we can deploy changes.
  • This role is to support a specific customer, and there is a 24/7 on-call requirement as part of a rotation. You will work with your team to deliver technical projects to support the wider business, while spending a portion of your time working cross-team to support this critical customer.

YOU ARE AN IDEAL CANDIDATE IF YOU:

  • 5+ years of work experience in Site Reliability, Infrastructure, or Software Engineering - particularly working with cloud systems, networking, distributed systems, or data processing frameworks.
  • Have experience designing and planning large deployments of VMWare or OpenStack.
  • Script or code with 1-2 languages like Ruby, Scala, Python or Bash. You are comfortable digging into other people’s source code (even if you don't know the language) in search of the root cause of a problem. You instinctively write code to deploy and automate infrastructure.
  • Have experience working on production systems where you responded to issues to minimize customer downtime. This role requires being part of an on-call rotation.
  • Believe in the Unix way. You build large systems out of small components that each do one job and do it well. We run Debian and Ubuntu.

BONUS POINTS FOR:

  • Interesting personal projects or contributions to open-source projects
  • A BS/MS/Ph.D in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a STEM field

 

About Cisco

#WeAreCisco, where each person is unique, but we bring our talents to work as a team and make a difference powering an expansive future for all.

We embrace digital, and help our customers implement change in their digital businesses. Some may think we’re “old” (36 years strong) and only about hardware, but we’re also a software company. And a security company. We even invented an intuitive network that adapts, predicts, learns and protects. No other company can do what we do – you can’t put us in a box!

 

But “Digital Transformation” is an empty buzz phrase without a culture that allows for innovation, creativity, and yes, even failure (if you learn from it.)

 

Day to day, we focus on the give and take. We give our best, give our egos a break, and give of ourselves (because giving back is built into our DNA.) We take accountability, bold steps, and take difference to heart. Because without diversity of thought and a dedication to equality for all, there is no moving forward.

 

So, you have colorful hair? Don’t care. Tattoos? Show off your ink. Like polka dots? That’s cool. Pop culture geek? Many of us are. Passion for technology and world changing? Be you, with us!
