  • Manage service availability and scalability through process, tools, and automation. Perform post-mortems and optimize incident response processes

Requirements:
  • BS or MS in Computer Science or equivalent experience

  • Experience with Linux/Unix internals and systems services like DNS, DHCP, TFTP, IPtables, SMTP, as well as networking protocols such as TCP, UDP, and HTTP.
