DESCRIPTION

Would you like to help implement innovative, robust cloud computing solutions used for state-of-the-art silicon design? Do you have a deep passion and desire to engineer and operate the world’s largest cloud computing infrastructure using a wide range of AWS services?

The Blink/Ring ASIC team uses a variety of AWS infrastructure including compute, storage, containers, serverless, and systems management. We also rely heavily on CI/CD to enable fast-paced development and testing. To meet our growing demand for AWS services, we need exceptionally motivated people who are driven by learning and innovation.

If you join us, you’ll be part of a world-class team in a dynamic environment that has the entrepreneurial feel of a start-up. This is an opportunity to operate and engineer a variety of cloud systems, and to gain world class experience in cloud computing. You’ll be surrounded by and providing operational support to people who are passionate about their work.

Key job responsibilities
You can expect to deploy and maintain AWS infrastructure as code, monitor and maintain the health of resources in AWS, act as a Linux systems administrator for silicon design & verification engineers, create tools/scripts/containers to solve DevOps needs, and learn from senior engineers the best practices and design patterns for architecting robust and secure cloud solutions.

You will grow your expertise with AWS, CI/CD, scripting, Linux administration, containers, networking, and more – as well as supporting non-cloud experts as they make use of these systems.

A day in the life
A typical week could look like: Monday, you investigate a congested CI/CD job queue and fix the root cause. Tuesday you license and deploy a new third party tool and network filesystem requested by silicon engineers. Wednesday you update test environments with OS and third party security patches. Thursday you are consulted for help with a misbehaving Raspberry Pi managed with AWS SSM, and Friday you make improvements to Python infrastructure as code and Docker containers.
