Platform Developer   (Docker, NoSQL, MySQL, Git, bash, AWS, etc.)

Do you enjoy wielding the power to create, scale up, down, in and out compute clusters in the cloud? Are you a technical puppet master able to automate and extend build systems? Do you think not using a button on a web browser to deploy an entire compute cluster is so 2010? Are you an entrepreneurial spirit with strong closing abilities? Do you dream of containerization and virtualization systems and think the cloud is not big enough for the software you help deploy? Do you dream of building your army of automated robots to find bugs in the matrix?
