Modus Create
Experience: Senior Level
Hello! Are you ready to work from home and transform your career?
We're looking for an experienced and enthusiastic Senior DevOps / Performance Engineer to join the team at Modus. Want to build awesome solutions? Are you interested in working from home with the best talent on the planet? Then keep reading.
About You
You walk the line between software development and system administration – maybe you're a sysadmin who was a coder in a past life (or vice versa)? Being able to analyze and reason about how the individual components of a tech stack interact and contribute to the overall performance of a system is second nature for you.
You know that true end-to-end observability goes beyond just building dashboards. You find the signal in the noise and improve the observability of complex systems. You’ve used a wide range of tools such as New Relic.
You find the right ways to visualize data and establish relevant baselines to proactively identify deviations. You have experience with instrumenting key user interactions from both the front and back end.
This is a senior-level position. That means you enjoy working with people and mentoring others. Your technical skills are top-notch but you know that the social ones are just as important. You're an excellent communicator who has a knack for knowing when everyone isn't on the same page, and getting them there. You can deal with stress and uncertainty, and lead the team away from them. You don't need to be told what to do, because when you see something that needs doing, you do it.
You are comfortable working in an agile environment with a globally-distributed team while collaborating with subject matter experts from our client’s organization on a daily basis. You’ve got the discipline to work autonomously, and the written and verbal communication skills to collaborate effectively with your team. Having your working hours overlap with your team (US central time) is critical when working in a blended remote team. In addition, reliable high-speed internet is a must.
In this role your primary responsibilities will include:
- Supporting the instrumentation of key user interactions and their associated metadata
- Supporting the development, deployment and usage of custom dashboard applications within New Relic
- Serving as a subject matter expert on New Relic
- Working iteratively to improve the observability of a SaaS application
Beneficial supporting skills and experience include:
- Experience building custom reporting applications in New Relic
- Experience with observability/tracing tooling such as: Splunk, CloudWatch, Logic Monitor, DataDog, etc
- Some professional experience with full stack development
- Existing experience with any of the following: Dart, Go or GohperJS
Why Modus Create:
Our Benefits may vary according to the Country you are located in, so please reach out to our recruiter in case you have any questions.
If you become a contractor we offer:
- Competitive compensation
- 100% Remote work (could vary according to the client's needs)
- Travel according to client's needs
- The chance to work side-by-side with thought leaders in emerging tech
