Our games serve more than one million unique users per day across a number of platforms and we need somebody with experience and excellent sys admin kungfu to help us manage our server infrastructure requirements.
You’ll be responsible for supporting and maintaining our server and networking infrastructure ensuring that our games are up and utilizing resources as efficiently as possible on a day to day basis. You'll be on call, but you'll continue to build out and tune our already robust systems to the point where we're always up and running smoothly.
You'll be an extremely nimble and flexible problem solver with the sense of ownership and urgency it takes to ensure our games are always up. Serious experience building/administering at least a medium-scale (20 servers) system in a LAMP environment (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) is the baseline for this role. You'll likely have MySQL replication knowledge, and good knowledge of a variety of standard services such as Nagios and Cacti. On top of that, you may have some combination of experience with Lighttp, setting up DNS, load balancing, sharding, CDNs, and cloud computing (Amazon S3 and EC2). Great communication skills and ability to multitask are a must.
