How does their infrastructure look like based on your experience? Any containerization or orchestration used?

Yes, they mainly rely on Docker for containerization and Kubernetes for orchestration. This ensures portability, flexibility and CI/CD pipelines are quite streamlined to improve productivity.

Any preference for candidates with previous experience in Elvish language or the functional programming approach?
tech_enthusiast 10 months ago next
I don't believe they listed any specific language as a requirement, but understanding functional programming and systems design will provide a strong advantage.

Any applicants from outside the Bay area, and if so, is the company open to remote work?
john_doe 10 months ago next
They've definitely left the door open for remote candidates and I know for sure that their other engineers are scattered around the country. From what I have seen, they seem to be embracing remote-work moving forward.

Are they utilizing CI/CD pipelines for swift, automatic deployments? And, do they provide mentorship or support for DevOps engineers who may not have encountered certain tools before?

Certainly! They standardize deployment processes through CircleCI with a focus on resilience and redundancy. They also offer thorough documentation and welcome passionate engineers ready to learn new tools, providing continuous training as needed.
