Responsibilities
    *    Lead a distributed team of sysadmins working across multiple products and initiatives. Help the team grow their skills and develop their careers.
    *    Web platform design/engineering - Stand up AWS capabilities and lead the migration of properties hosted on premise to AWS. Develop AWS operational strategy and processes
    *    Establish operational process and accountability mechanisms that help us manage platform quality, strategic aims and fiscal control
    *    Defend the sustainability of the web platform by developing technical roadmaps that consider automation, scaling existing workflows, capacity planning, new technology evaluation and technical debt reduction
    *    Develop, maintain and manage vendor relationships that are critical to the team’s success by negotiating deals and finding better ways to achieve our goals
    *    Continually improve the way we work by sharing lessons learned, instituting organizational learning capabilities, and evaluating customer feedback against organizational goals

Qualifications
    *    BS in computer science, information technology or related field is required. Equivalent academic and work experience also qualifies.
    *    Demonstrate proficiency in the standards of web operations, technical and managerial skills

Experience
    *    Five or more years of experience in managing operational teams, working in an SLA-driven environment required
    *    Experience in production-level, Linux-based, cloud based infrastructure required
    *    Experience developing work processes and operations strategies required
    *    Experience delivering operational IT services such as monitoring, security, data backup and DR processes is beneficial
