When work is challenging and rewarding it shouldn’t feel like work.
That’s why at Personify we make it a priority to ensure our employees have work/life balance, our offices are fun environments, and the teams we build are made up of people who not only work hard but play hard too!
We're growing! And we're looking for talented people to join our team. Personify is one of the most diversified and fastest growing providers of technology solutions to the association, chamber, non-profit, higher education, and corporate markets. Our platform of integrated software solutions enables our clients to fulfill their important missions by acquiring, engaging, and retaining organization members, charitable donors, event attendees, and more.
Personify is large enough to set the industry standard for quality products, client support, and growth, yet we still have that entrepreneurial spirit. We love new people, new thinking, and better ways of doing things. And we operate in diverse, growing, dynamic cities: Austin, Atlanta, and Toronto.
Who we need
Reporting to the Sr Director, DevSecOps, we are looking for a Senior Cloud Engineer. You will join our cross-functional Member Clicks products squads that embrace a DevOps philosophy in their development processes. They appreciate the "you build it - you run it" mentality. As the Senior Cloud Engineer, you will bring subject matter expertise to the team's ongoing efforts.
Who you are
You are an experienced software development or automation delivery professional who knows that DevOps is not just about automation and genuinely believes that collaboration is the only way to develop quality products, with all engineering roles contributing to the codebase - and the success of the application. You have an in-depth understanding of infrastructure, security, automation, and DevOps. You may be at the intermediate level looking for the next step up and a place to grow your career. Or, you may be at the senior level already, looking to introduce and implement your insights and best practices. You think like an engineer - solving complex problems in logical ways, building processes, and ensuring scalability and resilience. You know how to build cloud infrastructure without an existing foundation, and how to improve upon a baseline framework.
What’s in it for you
Exposure, impact, and influence. You want to be part of a self-organized, self-directed, collaborative team of Software Engineers that plans their own approach, chooses the technologies they need, and creates the process for themselves while ensuring high quality outcomes. Our mobile applications are built on-demand, meeting a genuine need. For hundreds, thousands, and even tens of thousands of end-users. These are customized iterations for our clients, filling their need to ensure their members can navigate massive events, spaces, and itineraries with ease and accuracy. You will see your ideas come together - and make their way into the hands of end-users within weeks or days.
Cutting-edge technology. We use Docker Containers, Kubernetes; AWS cloud infrastructure to build and launch real world applications, such as MC Trade or MC Professional , used by thousands of people. You will have the autonomy to work with and earn certification in some of the best tools for security and automation in AWS right now. This is an opportunity to expand your understanding of best practices for delivery of cloud-based managed applications (e.g., DevOps, Immutable Infrastructure, Infrastructure as Code, CI/CD, etc.) - and apply that knowledge directly to how we design, develop, and deploy new applications and features.
Collaboration and career growth. At Personify, we offer a balance between established and responsive, between new and tenured. We are proud to say, many of our team members have been here for 5, 10, even 15 years. And, we have people who've joined us recently. The management team at Personify is supportive and encourages professional development, creating space for you to grow in your hands-on skills and people leadership with the option to try new avenues and pivot back if that’s what you need to do your best work.
How you will make an impact:
- Provide solutions. You will work closely with the product managers, software engineers, and customer-facing teams to understand business requirements, detail possibilities, and develop improvements in delivery pipelines, prioritizing security and quality.
- Collaborate to solve problems. You will provide mentorship and guidance, helping others achieve their goals, contributing ideas, and embracing proposals of your peers. You will react to incidents, providing expertise during service interruptions. You will be part of an on-call rotation. Participate with other engineers in the on-call rotation.
- Manage relationships. You will work in close partnership with our hosting providers and other third-party vendors.
What you bring:
- The expertise. You have a combination of software engineering and automation/cloud engineering experience gained over the last 5 years. You have an understanding of best practices for delivery of AWS cloud-based managed applications, including DevOps, Immutable Infrastructure, Infrastructure as Code, CI/CD, etc.
- The technical toolbox. You have worked with a range of modern technologies and you are eager to learn more tools. You have hands-on experience with AWS. You are familiar with how Docker, Kubernetes, and Jenkins and understand how they work together for containerization.
- The collaborative approach. You understand the concepts of collective responsibility and ownership and practice active listening and empathetic engagement across diverse perspectives. You are driven to stay at the cutting edge of technology, continuously learning and growing. You have outstanding communication skills. You respond to change by adapting.
- The knowledge. You can explain why you made certain choices and how you would improve the security and automation using newer technology. You have a quality mindset and dedication to delivering high-quality products.
