The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  NexGen Systems is hiring a DevOps Engineer in Tampa, FL.

• Role description

  As a DevOps Engineer at NexGen Systems, you will own features end to end, from architecture through deployment and monitoring. The senior role rewards what you've built — 5 years of AWS Lambda — with $93,000 - $137,000 and a voice in NexGen Systems strategy.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Profile Amazon ECS memory use and chase down the leaks crashing Tampa nodes
  • Refactor the technology module NexGen Systems has been afraid to touch
  • Own a technology service end to end, from OpenShift schema to on-call rotation
  • Tune Amazon ECS queries until the FL database stops timing out under load
  • Defend NexGen Systems uptime through the 2 a.m. Tampa pages nobody volunteers for
  • Build internal tooling that improves developer productivity and velocity
  • Pair with cross-functional partners to scope and deliver part-time projects
  • Optimize application performance, latency, and resource utilization at scale

  What You'll Bring

  • A collaborative mindset and genuine enthusiasm for teamwork
  • Ability to thrive both independently and as part of a tight-knit team
  • Clarity of thought that shows up in tidy documentation
  • Resilience measured across 6 years of technology cycles
  • The communication discipline to over-share early and trim later

  The team at NexGen Systems is small, fiercely-supportive, and entirely convinced that Tampa is the best place to reinvent technology. We keep the Tampa, FL office quiet on Wednesdays so deep Initiative work actually gets a fighting chance.

  We provide a $93,000 - $137,000 salary, full benefits, and dedicated time each week to learn new AWS Lambda and Presentation Skills tools.
