What You’ll Be Doing (We don’t love the bullet points, but we love the work!)
GHOSTGEM seeks a valiant Software Engineer, a noble artisan of logic and caffeine, to breathe life into its hallowed suite of applications. You shall develop, sustain, and troubleshoot software with the grace of a thousand git commits and the patience of someone who has read a 400-line stack trace and lived to tell the tale.
Your days shall be filled with implementation, testing, and integration, weaving GHOSTGEM's code into a grand tapestry of COTS and FOSS products, packages, and libraries, like a master chef who doesn't care whether the ingredients are store-bought or foraged from the open-source wilderness, so long as the dish compiles.
Position Required Skills (These are not mere suggestions. These are the commandments.)
- Thou shalt know the Linux CLI — for the terminal is thy temple, and ls -la is thy morning prayer.
- Thou shalt script in Bash and Python — bending the machine to thy will with elegant one-liners and the occasional unholy regex.
- Thou shalt write Java — recently, not from memory of a 2009 textbook. Recent experience. We will ask.
- Thou shalt wield the Spring Framework — Spring Boot, Spring Data, and Spring Integration shall flow from thy fingertips like a river of beautifully annotated beans.
- Thou shalt commune with MongoDB — for life is too short for rigid schemas, and NoSQL is the art of making it up as you go, professionally.
- Thou shalt containerize — Docker and containerd are thy vessels; thou shalt package thine applications within them as one packs a suitcase for a deployment that will not fail in production. Probably.
- Thou shalt orchestrate with Kubernetes — conducting thy containers like a maestro leading an orchestra of microservices, each pod playing its part in the grand symphony of uptime.
- Thou shalt be familiar with the Messaging Arts — RabbitMQ and Kafka, the town criers of distributed systems, delivering messages to those who may or may not be listening.
- Thou shalt know CI/CD — Bamboo and GitLab CI are thy conveyor belts of destiny, automating the pipeline so that no human hand need suffer the indignity of a manual deployment ever again.
- Thou shalt embrace Infrastructure as Code — Ansible is thy magic wand; wave it and servers shall configure themselves, weeping tears of YAML in gratitude.
- Thou shalt use Git — and thou shalt write meaningful commit messages. "fix stuff" is not a commit message. It is a cry for help.
Desired Skills (Bestow These Gifts Upon Us and We Shall Rejoice)
- Not required, but if you have these, we will absolutely put your resume on top of the pile.
- The Atlassian Arts — Jira, where dreams become tickets, and Confluence, where documentation goes to be written and never read again.
- Helm Chart Mastery — the ability to craft Helm Charts and deploy containerized services into Kubernetes with the precision of a cartographer mapping uncharted digital seas.
- Maintains a professional relationship with java and a recreational interest in witty exchanges. ☕
