Hey, I'm applying for this position at Hyperscaled. Their infrastructure must be something! #SeniorDevOps

@harry their W21 YC batch participation means they just got fantastic funding and great mentors. I can see them growing A LOT.

@ron I think the more exciting part is the impact you make in a hyperscaling company, it's a completely different world

@neville I agree. I once had 2 years of experience in a hyperscaling company, vastly different than any other company with experience.

@ron what would the scaling approach be if large scale traffic conundrums like J.K. Rowling's numerous fan sites are to be expected? (;

@moody harnessing load balancing and auto-scaling with K8s would be my preferred approach #ScalingHigh

@harry best of luck with the job hunt. Stay positive even if you experience failure, and don't forget learning and connections are important too

Honestly, this is my dream job. Been following their opensource contributions and tech stack. #cloudnative # containerorchestration #RESTAPIs

@hermione just make sure you know K8s, Docker, Ansible like the back of your hand and strong software design principles. You'll ace it.

@hagrid even with that background, making an impact comes with understanding the company's culture, mission, and tech. Anti everything is a wrong mindset

Do you think they'll pay relocation fees? I'm desperate to get away from my bootcamp's small town vibes #careeradvice

@voldy from my personal experience, hypergrowth companies love to bring in talent from afar, for their experience and unique take on challenges #Maybe

@sirius you're right, old sport. Same principles I apply as Headmaster at Hogwarts, adapt, keep your morals, and still grow #HumanFirst
