  • Use our data to create new metrics.
  • Make tools to automatically generate reports to satisfy compliance requirements, e.g., audit trails. We adhere to PCI and SOC2.
  • Script out any repetitive task that is slowing us down.

Required Skills:

  • A mix of software development and Linux System Administration experience with decent shell scripting skills.
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills.
