Om jobbet
We are creating a new Performance team within the Infrastructure Department that will work on adding more automated tests to determine the quality of our service, as well as generating reports to be used as a basis for decisions. The result is that the Performance team will be responsible for ensuring our infrastructure performs optimally for our users.
This role includes identifying and testing limits and restrictions, adding alerts and alarms, gathering metrics and insights, and writing reports with findings for business decisions. We need to monitor everything, and be able to report and act on alerts.
This team will create scripted tests that will verify all the features, configurations and limits of all servers as they get modified, as well as to ensure that they work and are usable for customers from all possible locations.
Tools such as Grafana, LibreNMS and BetterUptime are used today for us to gather metrics and send alerts, although it might be the case that an office suite would be used for generating reports in future. An interest in experimenting with obfuscation methods, bypassing restrictive firewalls or experience connecting from restrictive locations would be beneficial as we never know exactly how our customers experience our service.
About you
Required: You have experience monitoring and working on graphs and alerts for server infrastructure.
Required: You have experience crunching numbers in order to map trends on how features or services are performing over time.
Required: You are a doer, you prefer to put pen to paper and iterate quickly, rather than to quietly research at length.
Required: You are comfortable writing scripts to automate repetitive tasks, but not afraid to do things manually when required.
Required: Multiple years experience working on and with Linux, as well as writing Bash or Python scripts.
Note: This is an on-site position in our office in Gothenburg, Sweden. We are flexible to remote work, but expect candidates to live in Sweden and be willing to work from our office minimum 50% of the working week.
