Description

Overview

The Rackspace Solutions and Services (RSS) Azure engineering group are looking for committed, multi skilled developers to work on exciting, disruptive and diverse software products and projects. These include:

Advanced control planes that we build and run, accelerating the value of public clouds like Azure to customers

Security platforms that automatically protect thousands of customers across their multi-cloud environments

Data services that run across thousands of nodes and process petabytes of data daily

As a developer in our team, you will be responsible for building cutting-edge applications that deliver innovative outcomes to our customers. You will leverage the best of modern cloud native components, building solutions that are operationally robust and impressively scalable.

A Good Fit

We're looking for developers who work well with others and push our team to be better. Collaborating closely with your teammates across the globe, you will apply strong creative and problem-solving skills to build world-class software that creates meaningful business value.

We continuously evaluate new technologies to assess their fit within our solutions, so a strong desire to learn is a must. Experience with the technologies we work with today is a plus but not essential. We are committed to delivering excellence and every team member has to be comfortable taking ownership of the quality of their applications through testing to production.

How We Work

Our customer and internal-facing platforms are powered by microservices, including event-driven and HTTP APIs. Our services are fronted with a suite of modern JavaScript applications. We own the full stack of each service from application logic to infrastructure and we are operationally responsible for the services we run. We practice continuous integration and delivery, deploying our services to production hundreds of times a day.

Our team is distributed by design. We don’t want location to be a barrier to hiring talent. We rely on Slack for chat, Zoom for video conference and GitHub Pull Requests and Issues for deep collaboration and feedback on technical issues.

Responsibilities include

Architecting, building and operating scalable systems, services, and products

Writing clean, high-quality, scalable and maintainable code

Implementing proofs of concept, prototypes and production-grade software

Instrumenting code and systems with automated monitoring and alerting, including notifications sent to both PagerDuty and Slack

Supporting what you build: DevOps to us means we are primary support for the systems we build, design, test and deploy

Collaborating well, both within your immediate team and across the broader organization

Requirements

Ideal candidates will have minimum 5+ years professional experience with:

.NET Technologies, preferably C#

Designing and implementing service-oriented applications

Building cloud native solutions on Azure

Managing infrastructure as code with Terraform

Source code management using Git

Continuous delivery and deployment, shipping code to production many times per day

Writing automated tests that demonstrate the quality of your application
