Seeking a DevOps Engineer with solid Kubernetes experience to join our DevOps team and help manage and deploy open source data platforms and infrastructure. Datopian creates agile data management solutions for government and the enterprise using (and building) open source technologies. Were fully remote, have a passion for data, and a culture that values autonomy and initiative.
About You

You are curious, eager and hard-working and have retained a willingness to learn and grow with your experience.
Communication: reasonable spoken and written English is essential so that you can communicate regularly with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
DevOps and Coding: you should have several years of experience including at least 1-2 with modern DevOps stack and tech such as Docker and Kubernetes. Our platform is largely written in Python and Javascript so some familiarity with python and web applications is a definite plus. Solid debugging and troubleshooting experience (including site reliability work) is a real plus.
Team: youll be working in a tight-knit team with other developers and engineers so experience working productively with others is highly desirable.

## Core Technologies

- Unix
- Python / Javascript
- Docker
- Kubernetes
- Google Cloud Platform, AWS, Azure

## Key Points

Rate: Competitive with location. Pay may increase further once youve proven yourself.
Hours: full-time or close to full-time.
Location: we are fully remote and you will work virtually.
Timezone: be available at least 50% of 8am-6pm London (the more the better).

## What Will You Do?

Our work focuses on data - collecting, managing, processing and presenting it. Thus, whatever you do with us youll be working with data in some capacity. Our platforms include web applications primarily in python and javascript. We also deploy using standard containerisation technologies such as docker and kubernetes. Key responsibilities will include:

- Architecture and iteration of various Kubernetes-based systems
- Design and implementation of automated infrastructure configuration

## About Us (Datopian)

We develop data management and integration platforms for governments, companies and NGOs all over the world. Our founder designed and built the worlds most successful open data platform (CKAN), and we have built solutions for dozens of clients ranging from NGOs and governments to multinationals. A lot of our work is open-source and we have a strong emphasis on seeing data used to make the world a better place.

## How are we organized?

We arent like most companies: we are a small, fully remote, virtual team working across multiple time zones. We have a very flat (bossless) structure where youll get to play a major role from day one, use a broad range of tech and learn new skills.
