Solid impact
While we have infrastructure monitoring in place, we believe that adding a dedicated DevOps Engineer will enable us to enhance development processes even further. We're looking for a professional who will bring fresh ideas and think of things that we haven't.

Professional development
Depending on how fast you pick things up, you'll be able to help shape your career path by demonstrating your aptitude and interests. For example, you may do some development in Ansible if you have the experience. You might also help Professional Services and Operations team with troubleshooting.

Great culture in a new space
Across AMAG you'll find a collaborative culture, and our move to Chelmsford provided an opportunity to reinforce that. We expect to have about 40 or more people in this office, almost all focused on development. We run flat and promote an entrepreneurial spirit.

Intriguing challenges in diverse markets
We partner with a wide variety of customers, helping them solve unique security and access concerns. You'll have occasion to interact directly with them. AMAG's customers include Yale University, Virgin Islands Port Authority, DCH Regional Medical Center in Alabama, United Kingdom Passport Service, Port of Houston, Halliburton, Northwestern Mutual and others.

We know there will be a learning curve as you get to know our business and technologies, but we'll look to you to get up to speed as quickly as possible. Meanwhile, you should be able to leverage your knowledge of DevOps tools and languages to start contributing right away.

Your technical expertise will be essential, but just as important will be strong interpersonal skills. You'll need to be able to interact effectively with multiple internal and external contacts. Those who thrive here are able to self-manage and achieve individual goals independently, but they are just as comfortable collaborating with and contributing to teams.

In addition, to be an outstanding DevOps Engineer, you will:
  • Provide constructive feedback and input, and remain open to the same from others
  • Maintain an upbeat attitude and personable approach
  • Assume ownership of your success by accepting challenges, pursuing goals and learning from mistakes
  • Provide expertise, but also seek expertise when needed
  • Remain flexible and adaptable as priorities change
