Original posting
San Francisco, Austin, San Antonio TX
We're solving hard infrastructure problems at Rackspace, and building products that other developers use and love. We're looking for smart Linux/Python software engineers located in San Francisco, Austin or San Antonio, who want to sell awesome tech, not advertisements. We'll relocate you if needed.
About our team:
- We love Linux and open standards.
- We solve problems with software and hardware. We love hardware.
- Our favorite GUI is ssh/bash, preferably served grey on black.
- We deploy to many data centers all over the globe.
- We have a hot key for everything.
- Some of us have never dragged or dropped anything.
About you:
- You have strong opinions on concurrency models.
- You are an intellectually curious US-based hacker.
- You want to have an enormous impact on a product developers love.
- You know what an architecture astronaut is and you're not one.
- You want to learn from us and you have something to teach.
- You've managed your own memory on multiple occasions (successfully).
We need help with:
- Running software at scale. Running it well. We want to re-invent a data center.
- Hacking on OpenStack/Python, especially on Nova.
- Systems-level hacking: PXE Booting, BMCc, iDRACs, hardware management.
- Controlling the new generation of network devices and SDNs.
- Good knowledge of Python is helpful but not mandatory.
If you're a hacker who're generally unhappy with the state of cloud hosting - or generally with hosting - and want to do something about it, we want to talk to you.
If this sounds like you, let me know: russell.haering@rackspace.com
