DiligenceEngine Inc. | Toronto, Ontario, Canada |Remote possible
Clojure DevOps Engineer
DiligenceEngine Inc. is a Toronto-based startup using machine learning to automate legal work. We’re looking for a DevOps engineer to help us manage and automate our technology stack. Our team is small, pragmatic, and inquisitive; we love learning new technologies and balance adoption with good analysis. We prefer to hire in the Toronto area, but also welcome remote work in a time zone within North America.
Primary skills we are looking for:
- proficiency with scripting for automating tasks (we use Python and a bit of Bash)
- proficiency in Linux systems administration
- knowledge of system security
- proficiency with PostgreSQL administration
- knowledge of managing clusters and highly available systems, especially PostgreSQL
Skills that are nice to have:
- some Clojure experience
- familiarity with Docker
- building distributable virtual machines
Responsibilities:
- approximately 50% systems administration and 50% development
- required to be on-call at some times
- maintaining and extending cluster manager software
- automating build and deployment processes
- automating testing processes
Don’t worry if you are only experimenting with Clojure or other nice to have skills, we’re happy to help you learn. Development tasks vary depending on your strengths and interests. Everything from working with our clustering software to the web service is an option.  We are really interested in someone who sees an opportunity to automate something, helps us work out the kinks, and takes the initiative and does it.
To apply, send an email to REDACTED_EMAIL with your resume and links to previous work.
