Security and DevOps Ninja in Training
If you need to be making an impact instead of just keeping the lights on, if you thrive on being constantly challenged, and if you soak up tech knowledge and certifications like a sponge, then read on…
At Cloud Quarterback we provide devops and security services and the security part of the business is expanding. As part of the company growth, we need someone who in the next year can do this:
Quickly learn and adapt to client systems and processes
Provide backend / 2nd level application and devops support to clients across the country
Write slick back end and automation code
Make servers and applications dance using configuration management and automation tools
Provide a friendly, outstanding client experience
Interface directly with clients in a co-operative and constructive way
Solve problems every day
Get involved in implementing security controls
Get involved in writing technical and security policy documents
Contribute ideas and feedback on new products and services
Be certified to at least one industry security certification
Implement technical solutions
While you could be anyone, we realistically need someone with a systems or programming / devops background who has a keen interest in all things relating to security and privacy. You’ll have to be able to do a few of those things day one, but not all of them. As an example this might be you:
Bachelor’s degree
Proven success in a client facing role such as sales, support, or customer service experience
Previously described as something similar to a “Tech Swiss Army Knife” by awestruck co-workers or friends
Excellent Google-Fu
Passion for security
You could be a bit of an introvert but still like to be sociable, you’re definitely not a misanthrope, and you’re positive and friendly by default.
You have the ability to work on projects with others and complete tasks solo when required
You like learning and getting things done way more than you like reading Reddit or watching cats dance
Highly flexible and adaptable
Comfortable with thinking laterally and prefer to either jump right in or read the barest amount of documentation to get started.
Working in consulting means chaos, you can adapt, respond, and negotiate with everyone – clients and coworkers alike – with a clear head
You probably know at least one programming or scripting language really well (eg. Powershell / Ruby / Python)
You wonder why most programmers can’t understand systems and why so many sysadmins can’t code
You’re operating system agnostic
We’re 100% remote workers and catch up in person twice a year (once at BlackHat), and encourage access to a local co-working environment in order to maximize your success. We also offer health insurance and retirement savings
You can be anywhere as long as you’re in the USA, although it would be preferable if you were on the West Coast or able to work a similar timezone to PST.
