University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) Library | DevOps/DevSupport Engineer | Los Angeles, CA| Full-time | ONSITE or REMOTE | https://ucla.in/2yb3TtA
The UCLA Library has an opening for a DevOps/DevSupport Engineer to be a part of our Digital Initiatives and Information Technology (DIIT) team. You are a technical professional with advanced knowledge in the field of Linux systems administration and will serve as a technical contact for the Library's software development teams and applications. You will work as part of a team, collaborating with project managers, developers, and engineers, to architect systems, design roadmaps, and create automated workflows taking an application from development to production status. You will take a lead role in helping teams within DIIT adopt a DevOps culture to better standardize and automate infrastructure provisioning and application deployment.
You are comfortable operating with minimal supervision and take ownership of projects. You value documenting processes to ensure tasks are reproducible. You are capable of resolving complex issues where analysis of situations or data requires in-depth evaluation of a variety of environmental factors. You respond to stakeholders with tact, using innovative resources to research solutions. You will be one of DIIT's technical contacts with campus Information Technology Services, and you occasionally train fellow DIIT staff on system configuration procedures.
System administration and development efforts take place within Red Hat Enterprise Linux environments split among physical servers, VMWare, and Amazon Web Services. Our teams use distributed version control (Git), configuration management tools (Ansible), containers (Docker), and continuous integration/delivery pipelines (Jenkins, Travis) to deploy software releases and ensure stable environments. System and service monitoring utilities (Nagios, StatusCake) and centralized logging platforms provide mechanisms to notify operations and developer teams of server and application health.
We will consider full-time remote applicants authorized to work in the United States and who are able to travel to the UCLA campus at least once per academic quarter (~3 months).
University of California, Los Angeles Library | DevOps Systems Engineer | Los Angeles, CA | Full-time | Onsite | https://ucla.in/2IGcURR
We call our Linux Operations Engineering team here at the UCLA Library, Development Support. We do this because it embodies who we are as individuals and the relationships we cultivate with our colleagues. Our mission is to embrace DevOps as a culture, rather than a job description. The focal point of our efforts is to support the Library's software development projects by enabling our developer teammates to use the tools, infrastructure, procedures, and workflows to get the job done with as few hindrances as possible. Within our team, no one throws tasks or responsiblities over a wall - putting the burden on somoneone else. The phrase, "That's not my job", doesn't exist here. We understand that DevOps is everyone's job. We support one another, we don't point fingers of blame, and we see failure as an opportunity to learn.
If this resonates with you, and sounds like a environment you'd like to be a part of, please consider our open position for a Development Support Engineer within the UCLA Library's Digital Initiatives & Information Technology (DIIT) organization.

UCLA Library | Head of Core Systems Development | Los Angeles, CA | Full-time | ONSITE
This is a senior management position within the UCLA Library's Digital Initiatives and Information Technology department (http://library.ucla.edu). The objectives of this position are to help manage and set the direction of the Library's software development efforts, as well as the operations/support of production services. We are looking for a leader with a strong technical background that can bring teams together, drive consensus, and set strategic direction.
This role supervises 8 career FTE staff, contract staff, and student employees who are responsible for maintaining a large number of web applications, web services, database driven applications; service usage analytics; and for development of new applications and services. The position is responsible for day-to-day supervision including delegating projects and tasks to individuals with varying levels of formal education, certification, professional experience, and with diverse software development and IT skills.
We are looking for Senior Linux System Administrators with backgrounds in supporting development teams and project managers. What's great about this position is the autonomy we have to create environments that serve the vision of the Library. We'll be working on creating continuous integration methods, using configuration management tools, developing infrastructures in in-house virtual infrastructures and in clouds services (like Amazon).
We value candidates' communication, organization, documentation, and overall "soft skills" just as high, if not more so, than technical abilities.
We are a fun IT organization with many interesting projects. We support websites that host collections of materials where our Library has the only copies of the images, audio, and video in the entire world. We are working through challenges for how to preserve terabytes of data where if they're lost, there's no getting them back.
The Library is a place where we learn something new every day, and is an awesome place to come to work.
