Hudl is looking to solve the problem of ensuring the reliability and performance of their website, Hudl.com, which is critical for coaches and athletes worldwide to analyze data, share highlights, and improve their game. The role focuses on scaling DevOps, site reliability, security engineering, and FinOps best practices across the engineering team.
Requirements
- Exposure to mature, full-stack web application code. You have 2+ years of experience building across many levels of a web application, from client-side code down to the database.
- Experienced with public clouds, preferably AWS. You understand the state of operating in the cloud and know what every company should be doing in them. You are excited by cloud services and the reliability and scaling benefits of adopting managed services.
- Knowledgeable in monitoring and observability technology. We’re investing in OpenTelemetry and tools that support it.
- Believe in the 'DevOps' philosophy. You want to empower feature teams to own their services, from provisioning to operation and incident resolution.
Responsibilities
- Define, document, and drive adoption for the processes and tools used to improve production alerting and incident response sitewide at Hudl.
- Understand, evangelize, and help implement the best strategies and tools for faster discovery and resolution of production incidents.
- Help Hudl define and measure reliability metrics, such as MTTD, MTTR and availability. You’ll help teams become more accountable for individual microservice metrics.
- Collaborate and embed with teams to eliminate architectural weaknesses or anti-patterns across our systems.
- Take on-call shifts a few times a year. All engineers at Hudl participate in ops duty, not just infrastructure engineers. Expect about one 24-hour on-call shift out of business hours per quarter.
Other
- We’re looking for someone who lives near our offices in Lincoln and Omaha, Nebraska, but we're also open to remote candidates in Kansas City, Chicago, Austin, or Dallas.
- A collaborative, team-first mindset. You know building excellent software is a team effort and you’re willing to collaborate with others to get to the best outcome—whether that means providing input in technical discussions, pitching in when a teammate needs a hand, or providing quality feedback in code review.
- Experience independently navigating uncertainty. You’re used to working with many possible implementation options and know how to identify the one that pragmatically balances quality, consistency and delivering immediate customer value.
- Curiosity. You’ve picked up new technologies and domains on the job and know what form of learning helps you most. Working across myriad layers of the stack and multiple products energizes you.
- Experience working with hybrid teams. Our engineering team is spread across the U.S. with a combination of people working in the office and remotely. A background working with global teams isn’t a must but will help you adapt more quickly to Hudl’s culture.
