Mendix is on a mission to enable anyone in any organization from the marketing coordinator to the software developer to the CEO to create things that are transformational for their company. We are fundamentally reinventing the way applications are created and we’re reinventing the future of software development. Sounds ambitious, right? We agree.
Not to brag, but nearly 4,000 organizations worldwide, including KLM, Medtronic, Merck, and Philips, rely on Mendix to build web and mobile applications. Thousands of our customers use our platform to delight their clients and empower their employees. It’s no surprise that we’re a recognized Leader by Gartner and Forrester in a red-hot market expected to exceed $21 billion by 2022. Ok, maybe we did want to brag a little. But we’re proud of what we’ve accomplishedandwe’re humble enough to admit that we need you to make us even more effective.
The Mendix Cloud team is responsible for delivering a high quality, high availability Cloud environment where our customers can run their Mendix apps. We develop and run the Mendix Cloud infrastructure and services that offer deployment, operations and monitoring.You'll help drive digital innovation by:
- Solving operational issues for our customers, by both investigating technically and liaising between Mendix Support (1st line) and other development teams in Ramp;D. You'll spend approximately 50% of your time doing this.
- Writing software to automate the operations of our platform, and enable our customers to perform more operations themselves. This will take up the other 50% of your time.
- Providing out of hours support for critical customer issues on an on-call basis.
You’re the innovator we need if you have:
- Experience as a system administrator with a DevOps mindset or very strong 3rd line technical support
- Programming skills, ideally in Python, but similar languages are fine too. You're comfortable writing a Python script to automate complex tasks to reduce manual effort.
- Experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC), such as Terraform, CloudFormation, Ansible, etc.
- Proven experience (2+ years) administering, developing against, or architecting on a cloud platform. AWS is the platform we use, but experience on GCP/Azure is fine too.
- Strong communication skills, both written and verbal. Explaining complex technical issues and reducing them to a form that less technical customers amp; colleagues can understand is an important part of the job.
- A passion for investigating complex issues and finding out the solution in a platform with many distributed applications.
- Experience with logging amp; monitoring tools like- Grafana, Kibana, Datadog, Prometheus, etc.
- Strong experience with Linux/Unix systems.
- A deep understanding of Cloud architecture/deployment and infrastructure services like web servers, load balancing, SSL/TLS/X509 etc.
