[linuxjobs] [JOB] Server Engineers at Sony Computer Entertainment Europe, Soho

[Stephen Nelson-Smith]

Hi there,

One of our clients - Sony Computer Entertainment Europe - have a
number of vacancies for full-time, permanent server engineers, based
in Soho, London.

Working within the online technology group, the purpose of the
position is to enhance the operational effectiveness of Sony's online
software. The group collaborate with Sony Worldwide Studios game teams
to create high performance, scalable, highly available applications
and services.

We're looking for people who are able to combine programming and
systems administration, and who can build tools themselves if a
solution doesn't already exist in the open source world.  The
environment is broadly agile in its outlook, and any exposure to agile
ways of working such as XP or Scrum would be handy.  Chef
(http://opscode.com/chef) is at the heart of the infrastructure, and
we would expect engineers to be able to program independently in Ruby,
particularly with a test-first attitude.  The server environment is a
mixture of Ubuntu and CentOS, and experience of managing Java
applications on Linux would be beneficial.

The salary range is 30-45K, and with several positions to fill, we're
interested in hearing from people with any level of experience,
regardless of whether you feel you might be over or under qualified.

If you're interested or would like some more information, please
contact me off list for a chat.

Thanks,

S.
