Boulder, Colorado, United States Sovrn Holdings Full time

About the Team

Sovrn, Inc offers a suite of products to allow independent creators to stay independent (i.e., "sovereign") by making an income while serving their audience. Of these products, the Advertising Exchange is the oldest and largest. It's also probably the most complex. It operates at massive scale, in open market conditions, with sophisticated counterparties.

The Exchange team is currently undertaking to move its entire architecture from hybrid cloud/bare metal to an entirely cloud-native environment. We've made substantial progress, with all major infrastructure replicated in our cloud environment. Our next challenges are to scale, test, and harden, but also to adapt and evolve our systems to their new home.

The team is seeking an experienced cloud engineer to help us with this next phase of an exciting project.

About the Job

As a Sr. Cloud Engineer you will have a pivotal role in building and maintaining our cloud systems, porting our operations from bare metal to the cloud, and, after the move is complete, continually optimizing the operations of the systems.

Some of our key tenets are low latency, high performance, sane architecture, observable systems, operational maturity, and a blameless culture of learning and improvement.

Cloud engineering includes deployment pipelines, software configuration management, infrastructure configuration management, containerization frameworks, monitoring, and performance engineering. You will bring experience with SRE and DevOps transformation, implementation, and sustaining activities.

What You'll Be Doing:

Helping move a large (100B+ requests daily, petabyte-scale) application from bare metal to the cloud
Preserving and improving our low-latency, cost-efficient performance across the move
After the move is complete, optimizing for observability and efficiency
Driving the maturity of our load balancing strategy via a design/test/measure/iterate workflow
Advocating for best practices for container management and tools
Contributing to the evolution of cloud native practices, guidelines, patterns, and standards
Providing technical and architectural/vision alignment guidance and mentorship to other team members

About You

You are a self-starter and desire to work without micromanagement. You enjoy being part of a collaborative team but are also independently responsible. You are energized by technical challenges and solving problems with your team to make better software. You are security-minded and above all are excited about technology with an endless curiosity to learn.

The successful candidate will have experience with:

Containers and orchestration (Kubernetes, EKS, Docker)
Automation tools (Jenkins, Github Actions, Terraform, Vault, etc.)
Networking (particularly in AWS), DNS, and load balancing
Any scripting language (shell, Python, etc)
Deploying and operating cloud services (observability, monitoring, alerting, and handling critical issues)

Bonus Points:

Certified Kubernetes Administrator or Application Developer (CKA, CKAD)
Cloud Certifications (AWS, GCP, Azure)
Java experience
Experience with large scale, latency-sensitive systems
Full software development lifecycle experience
Experience with Cloud-based security protocols

This position reports to: Director, Advertising Exchange Engineering

Location: Boulder or Denver, CO

We understand that no candidate is perfectly qualified for any job. Experience comes in different forms; many skills are transferable; and passion goes a long way. Even more important than your resume is a clear demonstration of accountability impact, and the ability to thrive in a fluid and collaborative environment. We expect you to learn new things in this role, and we encourage you to apply if your experience is close to what we're looking for.
