Engineering Manager: Etsydoop Infrastructure
Brooklyn, NY, United States
We’re looking for someone to manage for our Etsydoop
Infrastructure group and to help set a vision for taking the team and
architecture to the next level of growth.
About the Team
Our Etsydoop Infrastructure team is responsible for making our in-house Hadoop cluster easy to use and transparent in nature to our end users. This team oversees our 250+ node Hadoop cluster and makes it run smoothly for the rest of the organization to utilize and build features using data extracted from our ever growing event streams. As a shared resource there are scaling challenges as more people run jobs and compete for resources. In addition, there are data ETL systems that must be maintained, as well as alerting and job debugging tools to improve. Creating usable tools for our end users of the cluster to make their lives easier and helping others use the cluster is a big part of this teams initiative.
About the Job
As a manager, you will provide direction and vision for maintaining, improving and extending our Hadoop infrastructure; drive execution of infrastructure and platform changes; influence organization-wide development and deployment practices on the cluster; and keep Etsy at its best.
About You
You are an optimistic, positive force for your team. You believe your team is composed of humans, not resources. You thrive on helping to develop careers and foster lasting relationships. When you see something broken, you fix it.
You will be Successful in this role if you:
-
Inspire and believe in the goodness of others.
-
Know how to win the hearts and minds of developers.
-
Understand thoroughly how Hadoop works, the current tools and
technologies and when its right to make changes to the architecture
-
Are a good communicator and willing to put in effort understand the needs of our customers, in this case other Etsy Engineers
-

operations systems, including disk I/O, memory usage patterns, Linux
kernel parameter tuning, common command line tools
-
Are well versed in programming and development principles
-
a solid understanding of how to tune the JVM and Hadoop
-
experience managing geographically distributed teams
-

What’s Next
If you're interested in joining the team, please send us your resume. You won’t be surprised to hear, though, that we won’t consider it without a cover letter. Let us know how you fit the bill for each of our requirements above. Etsy is a place that values individuality and variety, so use your judgment and write to us in your own voice. If you have a presence on the web that we can easily access (Twitter, Facebook, rap sheet), contribute to an open source project, write a blog, or practice another craft besides designing beautiful, functional websites, that means something to us, we’d love to hear about it.
