DevOps engineer

The opportunity

We are creating from scratch new industrial IoT platform which will be used to provide best in class protection software for Power Grids. Our system is mission critical to keep lights on.

Since project is creating from scratch, we are using cutting edge technologies on practice not only in paper. In daily work you will be able to get hands on experience on containerization, Kubernetes (k8s) and system designed in full fledge microservice architecture with all it benefits and drawbacks. We cannot promise you that this will be easy ride, but it will be for sure fun one.

Concepts like scalability, reliability, and availability are the key base so it is required to have basic knowledge about how they can be achieved in microservice world.

Main message bus and event platform in project is kafka which in our case is put on the stress of millions of messages per second.

Low level system components are written in C#.

Quality is unquestionable so we constantly invest in test automation, starting from Unit Test level which are written in language in which microservice is written, through component and system level, ending on E2E Test which are automated in Python using PyTest.

Our tech stack and tools include .NET 6, REST API, SLQ (PostgreSQL, SQL Server), Git, Azure DevOps, Kafka, Docker, Kubernetes, Prometheus.
