When I Work is an employee scheduling and communication app using the web, mobile apps, text messaging, social media, and email. The program provides a powerful tool for employers to communicate with employees and ensure schedules are properly communicated.

Does owning an infrastructure and driving its evolution excite you? Do the words “automation” and “open source” make your brow perk up? Can you configure a new system in the morning, scan for security and validate at lunch, and have 500 of them live by the end of the day? Do you respond to mentions of “HIPPA” or “SOX” with ‘Challenge accepted?’ Are you outraged by manual repetitive tasks? Does ChatOps interest you? Then this is your job! You'll be responsible for enhancing, securing, and scaling our production servers and the applications that run on them. You'll ensure that our databases are not only performant, but being backed up properly, and secure. You'll work with the development team to automate our deployment processes, as well as monitor performance and uptime. You’ll also be responsible for scaling our infrastructure as our business continues to grow. In short, you will be involved in all aspects of infrastructure, build, deploy, and operations.
