About the Role
We are looking for a Software Engineer – DevOps / Systems Operations who thrives at the intersection of OS internals and release engineering. This role is responsible for the deployment, reliability, and on-prem infrastructure of a large-scale distributed robotics system. Unlike traditional "Cloud DevOps" roles, this position requires deep UNIX/Linux expertise. You will be expected to diagnose issues at the kernel and application layers, manage complex release pipelines, and ensure system stability in high-load, Wi-Fi-dependent environments without relying on cloud-provider dashboards.
Roles & Responsibilities:
- Linux Systems Mastery: Operate and tune bare-metal Linux servers (CPU, memory, disk, network).
- Perform deep-dive troubleshooting using system logs and OS-level diagnostics.
- Release & Pipeline Management: Own the end-to-end CI/CD process, coordinating releases and executing staged production rollouts with robust rollback strategies.
- Container Excellence: Create, layer, and debug Docker images. Integrate containerized stacks into on-prem workflows and troubleshoot runtime issues.
- Network & Wi-Fi Reliability: Validate and troubleshoot network performance (packet loss, latency, jitter) in high-density, real-time environments.
- Automation: Develop sophisticated Bash or Python scripts for log parsing, build automation, and custom system tooling.
- Operational Health: Monitor system throughput and latency using tools like Grafana/Prometheus; design alerts and perform Root Cause Analysis (RCA).
Requirements:
- Deep UNIX/Linux Expertise: Expert-level command of Linux internals (specifically Ubuntu Server).
- Comfortable reading logs and managing processes without high-level abstractions.
- Release Engineering: Proven experience in versioning, rollback strategies, and managing the lifecycle of a release.
- Containerization: Proficient with Docker (image optimization, debugging, and layering).
- Hands-on Scripting: Strong proficiency in Bash and Python for automation and systems-level tooling.
- Networking Fundamentals: Solid understanding of TCP/UDP, VLANs, routing, and troubleshooting Wi-Fi roaming/latency.
- Observability: Practical experience in log analysis and monitoring (ELK, Prometheus, or similar).
Good to Have:
- SRE/Build Engineering Background: Experience as a Systems Reliability Engineer or Build/Release Engineer.
- On-Prem Kubernetes: Experience managing K8s in a bare-metal or edge environment.
- Database Ops: Operational familiarity with Postgres, MongoDB, or Redis (availability and backups).
What We Are NOT Looking For
- Pure Cloud Specialists: Candidates whose experience is limited to configuring AWS/Azure/GCP services (EKS, Lambda, etc.) without deep OS-level troubleshooting skills.
- Dashboard-Reliant Engineers: We need experts who can diagnose a system failure from a terminal when the high-level dashboard doesn't provide the answer
What Success Looks Like
- Precision Releases: Stable deployments with zero-friction rollback capability.
- System Visibility: Clear, actionable metrics and logs that reveal the "why" behind every incident.
- Deep Diagnosis: Fast, accurate root-cause identification at the OS and network layer.
We Value:
Constant learner to become a Subject Matter Expert
Proven record in start-up environment working with innovations
Exposure to a high paced working environment
Ability to conduct detailed procedures in a time-constrained environment
