For my friends who might be considering their next career step. Or maybe also for #FediHire My team is responsible for a bunch of internal security-related services at GitHub. That means we're write tooling around vault, tailscale, openvpn and a lot of internal things around managing secrets while we're also operating these services.We're considered software engineering but someone with SRE experience would feel right at home.Helpful skills are def. ability to code, operational experience and something I consider very important: Excellent system thinking/analytics skills. You need to understand a distributed system, recognise atypical behaviour and similar in order to successfully operate such a thing.We're looking at hiring maybe two people for this team (the HR slang would be "backfilling for 2 regrettable attritions") in the near future but have not done any of the paperwork yet and therefore do not have a job description or similar.We're a global and fully remote company but there are limits to where we are actually able to hire due to legal and organisational reasons: https://www.github.careers/life-at-github#where-we-hireI would love to hire someone located in one of the European countries from that list.If you think that rough job description above might be interesting and you'd like to talk a bit more, I'd love to chat. Even if we do not have an official job posting yet.My aim here is to be able to improve targeting of the actual job postings as it seems we can only do a limited amount of countries per job posting.
