Senior Systems Administrator

Keepit is a cloud-to-cloud backup service provider. The purpose of our platform is to provide our customers with an immutable historical archive of their primary data in systems such as Microsoft 365, GSuite, Salesforce and Dynamics, to protect them from everything from ransomware to simple accidents

At Keepit, we like to keep it simple. We like to think "less is more". We are one of the leading cloud data protection platforms in a very rapidly growing market and we can see that customers like what we do. We are looking for more colleagues to help us do even more.

The Keepit platform is a set of networked services working in concert; we have a strong emphasis on performance and reliability and this influences how we approach development and how we write our code.

The majority of our back-end components are written in clean modern C++ using mainly purpose-built components and the STL. Several components that deal with business processes and data mining are built using Common Lisp.

About the job:

You will participate in a 24/7 operations team that operates, monitors maintain and troubleshoots our global cloud service operations. Our focus is on assuring reliable and predictable operations; we prefer to do things right and then only need to do them once.

As the cloud software we operate is our own, the operations team closely collaborates with the development and QA teams to ensure that any problem uncovered in production gets resolved properly and in a timely manner.

Work hours:

You will work 40 hours per week on a shift schedule. The working week is four days of 10 hours, then three days off. As you are part of a 24/7 operations team you should expect to sometimes work on holidays, but you can always trade shifts with your colleagues.

What we require from you:

Clean criminal record

Good working verbal and written English

Solid Ubuntu (or other) Linux experience

Troubleshooting and shell usage

Structure and discipline

Would be a plus:

Experience with Postgres and Pacemaker/Corosync

Networking skills; firewalling, NAT, VLAN, ...

Familiarity with ITIL, ISO27001, ISAE3402

We offer:

- An exciting and challenging job in a successful business. Our culture is characterized by a positive tone, commitment and result-oriented professionalism, heavily influenced by excitement for what we do

- Unique working environment where your opinion matters

- Competitive salary

- Career and professional growth

If all above describes you, Keepit hopes to have you as our new team member to help us grow in the direction that sustains Keepit’s culture of many different talents and nationalities within an informal and trusting environment. We kindly ask you not to provide us with any sensitive categories of personal data when applying for a job with us.
