– Startup of London Team

The Role

To build on our DevOps culture at Juro.

You will focus on using your knowledge and experience to help our product teams move faster, bringing DevOps to the forefront of everything we do — using SRE best practice and processes to design, oversee and secure infrastructure and improve it in every possible way.

**When you join our Tech Scaling team**

You will face non-trivial tasks and challenges that require creativity and critical thinking to solve. Some of the items and projects that you’ll be involved in:

• Seeking and removing bottlenecks in Juro’s infrastructure by employing suitable patterns, best practices, platforms and technologies or making changes to the codebase and data architecture.
• Streamlining, configuring and automating deployment of infrastructure and services.
• Optimising our communications infrastructure so that microservices exchange data in a safe and reliable way.
• Optimising database performance and architecture to meet the demands of our users.
• Overseeing infrastructure and applications performance using observability best practices.
• Automating to ensure repeatability, eliminate waste and remove dependencies.

This might be for you if…

Research shows that while men apply to jobs if they meet ~60% of criteria, women and those in traditionally underrepresented groups tend to apply only if they check all boxes.

So if you think you have what it takes but don’t meet every single point above, please ****still get in touch. We’d love to have a chat and see if you could be a great fit.

• You have experience with containerised environments such as Docker and Kubernetes.
• You have used a variety of AWS services such as EC2, S3, Route53, and lambdas in your day to day role and are familiar using them to build, secure and run SaaS-oriented solutions.
• You get observability and know that Prometheus or other monitoring tools help you to get infrastructure and application insights that can drive reliability and improvement.
• GitHub actions or GitLab pipelines to build CI/CD solutions are second nature to you.
• You have been involved in product architecture: creating and improving architecture, migrating from old to new services and structures and shifting+left.
• Preferably managed MongoDB, Redis or Kafka clusters.

Bonus points if:

• You got the UDP joke

Your progression with Juro:

You will join us at IC3 level in our career map and with time, grow as as either an Individual Contributor (IC) or Team Lead (MN). More can be found about this in our career framework for progression at Juro. We will offer support for whichever route suits you best in your future.

Why join us?

• You decide what is best.
  You will have the autonomy to make decisions, define tooling and contribute to processes that lead to the best outcomes. You can propose new tools and systems for solving problems.
  
• No legacy technologies.
  We use a modern stack including TypeScript, Node.js, MongoDB, Redis. As a bonus, you will have debugging tools such as Sentry, Greylog, Grafana and a geek tool for task tracking — Linear.
  
• Make an impact.
  We are still a small team — ca. 5 engineers per workstream. As a result, your impact on what we build will be significant: you will see the results of your work not in months, but weeks.
  
• Code review to help you grow.
  Our PR’s are rigorous, but that’s because we believe in them as an opportunity to keep improving and for wider knowledge transfer. Of course, where appropriate we will also pair or mob to get the best results.
  
• Join the best startup to work for in 2022.
  We’re immensely proud being voted #1 of the top 50 London startups to work for in 2022. This is the result of hard work, to show not tell, and make Juro the best place to work for. This spans from setting concrete steps become a truly diverse, inclusive workplace, to investing in a culture of growth, to offering flexibility to everyone and more.
  For 2022, we plan on expanding on all of these areas — what benefits we offer, how we give and receive feedback and how we foster a genuine sense of belonging for all Jurors to bring their full and best selves to work.
