       Fly.io (YC W20) Is Hiring Site Reliability Engineers
        
       Fly.io takes container images and converts them into fleets of
       Firecracker VMs, running on our own hardware around the world. It's
       easy on Fly to run applications close to users, no matter where
       they are in the world. Try it out! If you've got a working
       container already, it can be running here in less than 10 minutes:
       https://fly.io/docs/speedrun/  We've got a lot of fun ops
       challenges here. We're HashiCorp stack (Nomad, Consul, and Vault),
       plus Firecracker, plus WireGuard, which is what our network fabric
       is built on. Our users drive Fly.io through a Rails-based GraphQL
       API. We host a heavy-duty Prometheus-style metrics cluster, an
       ElasticSearch cluster for logging, a monitoring system using Sensu
       Go, BGP4 peering with Bird... the list goes on.  We're hiring SRE-
       types to help us manage and keep this stuff running smoothly. The
       role includes:  * Intense observability and monitoring, so that
       Kurt only gets paged during his on-calls when something important
       happens.  * Coordinating deployments of new infrastructure across a
       fleet of servers with custom kernel and networking configurations.
       * Enabling us to quickly ship new features to prod with canaries or
       blues and greens or whatever the cool kids are doing, because some
       of what we deploy right now is scary enough to slow us down a bit.
       We're a small, almost entirely technical team. Ops and dev are
       tightly integrated, and devs don't throw things over the wall
       expecting ops to magically keep them running.  We're remote, in
       Chicago, Montreal, Colorado, Virginia, Utah, Wisconsin, and London.
       We all share an on-call rotation, which is a company value that
       won't be changing any time soon.  We're weird about hiring. We're
       deeply skeptical both of resumes and interviews. We're believers in
       aptitude and of discovering and developing talent. Regardless of
       your background, we're interested in hearing from you; you can't
       waste our time. More about the role and our hiring process here:
