At Tripadvisor, we want you to bring your unique perspective and experiences, so we can collectively revolutionize travel and together find the good out there. Tripadvisor captured the online travel market 20 years ago as a Boston-based startup before an online travel market existed. The fact that we still dominate the industry proves that we know how to operate a fast-moving technology company and hire the right people who allow us to maintain that lead throughout the many advancements in technology. As we enter the era of Large Language Models and mobile-based internet everywhere, we are poised to innovate again. As a Tripadvisor Engineer, you will work with some of the best and brightest minds that technology offers and learn best practices and engineering methodologies that will empower you for the rest of your career.

As a SiteOps Engineer, you will be involved in designing and implementing how we perform those migrations, testing them, and then performing them with a "no surprises in production" mindset. What You'll Do: Infrastructure Automation: Design, implement, and maintain automated infrastructure provisioning and configuration management using tools like Ansible to ensure consistency and scalability. Monitoring and Alerting: Set up monitoring and logging systems to proactively detect and address potential issues, ensuring optimal performance and reliability in environments like on-prem Prometheus/Thanos, Grafana Cloud, and Grafana Cloud Loki.

Linux Systems Administrator - Be trained with AWS/ Docker - (url removed)
One of the UK's fastest growing Health Tech Start ups are looking for an ambitious and motivated Linux Systems Administrator to join their rapidly growing team to join the Head of Infrastructure in moving the company towards continuous integration/ delivery and a cultural shift towards devops!
So what do these guys do? A fast growing health tech firm that allow an online consultation with a doctor from the comfort of your own home - saving all the hassle of getting up early and booking doctors appointments for small illnesses. Having trebled in size in the last couple of years they are looking to grow further and, hence, are moving towards 'devops'.
Now, do not fret if you fear this 'buzz word' - these guys believe in the methodology and not the buzzwords - so if you lack the experience with buzz words of 'puppet', 'chef' and so on BUT have a drive to want to work with new technologies and expand your career then this is the role for you!
These guys live and breathe agile - having brought in a well known agile consultancy to help them with this transition - 2 years later they are now aptly given the title of agile evangelists. With a new CTO brought in a few years back to help with this transition IT was brought to front of the business to allow it to scale and grow at the rate the business was.
They are, therefore, looking for an experience Linux systems Administrator/ Engineer who is comfortable working on web applications to help maintain the current infrastructure but also learn all about the devops ways of working and tooling so he/she can work with the head of infrastructure to set up continuous integration/ delivery. Knowing the Head of Infrastructure well I can tell you he is a massive proponent of AWS and Docker so these are tools you will definitely be trained on.
What are they looking for?
* Experienced on Linux Systems
* Experienced on Web Applications/ Servers: Tomcat/ Apache/ Jboss
* Strong Scripting experience: Python, perl, php, bash
* Knowledge of cloud servers: AWS, rackspcace, Vmware
* Knowledge of configuration management: chef, puppet or ansible
Massive thirst to learn and work with new technologies!
This is truly a once in a while opportunity where there is no emphasis on buzz words but on experience and true appreciation of the 'devops'/ agile methodology. A lot of companies at the moment want devops engineer experience from their Linux Systems Administrators - THESE GUYS DO NOT!
These guys want a keen desire to learn! Collaboration is the key here - they have grown so quickly by everyone working together and sharing knowledge to solve problems! This is the perfect role for any Linux systems Administrator who wants to advance their career, work with all the latest technologies and be fully supported through out!
You will be trained with Docker and AWS - what more could you want?! - Apply Now!
