ThoughtWorks

Infrastructure Developer (DevOps Champion)

As technology consultants, we work with a variety of clients that hire us to solve complex and interesting problems. We believe in change through delivery and collaborate with client teams to build world-class technology that breaks through traditional enterprise models.

Each client we work with gives us a new perspective and a broad exposure to different technologies, which leads to a pretty unlimited learning environment. We are constantly questioning the status-quo, innovating, and delivering. If you have a passion for exploring new technologies, chances are you’ll fit right in.

We are looking for developers who share our enthusiasm for CD to:

  • Build large-scale and distributed software systems
  • Work almost exclusively with our customers to offer a combination of development and consulting services
  • Coach our clients to practice CD & CI and reduce time from production to deployment and to adopt an agile development workflow
  • Design and build end-to-end continuous delivery pipelines, including designing pipelines for infrastructure code and pipeline-integrated metrics and monitoring (observability) practices and infrastructure
  • Deploy and manage virtualized and/or containerized workloads in development through production (Vagrant, Docker, VMWare, etc)
  • Foster environments with stronger levels of trust, that give more autonomy to technologists

ThoughtWorks is synonymous with innovation, and even more so when it comes to Continuous Integration & Continuous Delivery practices. We created the first known CI server, Cruise, in 2001, which was later open-sourced and renamed CruiseControl. As we evolved our knowledge, we created goCD and also wrote the first book about CD. We also travel the world sharing what we learn in various conferences.

We certainly don’t expect to stop there. We’re looking for people who want to join us in a lifelong learning journey to continue pushing our industry forward. 
 
We work almost exclusively on customer site providing a mix of delivery and consulting services, so you’ll be flexible about travel, and willing to travel extensively as part of your role.  Most of our consultants travel every week and fly home for weekends. We do everything we can to make life here as easy as possible and do our best to take people’s personal situations into account.
 
Our North America offices are in Chicago, Dallas, New York, Atlanta and San Francisco.  Relocation isn't necessary if you live in one of these cities. If you live elsewhere, please let us know to which one you are willing to relocate to.
