We're hunting for a senior person to join our devops team. MOB is an R&D lab based in Sydney, but our team is distributed all over the world and we all collaborate together using irc, skype and other online tools as required. You'll need to be independently motivated and focus on communicating clearly and helping make sure we all deliver as a team. If you can deliver, then you'll have all the freedom you need and the support of a smart, tight-knit team of experts.

We want someone with strong experience managing networks of Ubuntu based servers running web applications built with OO based perl. Our applications are all built upon a smart multi-device aware services framework and our front end applications are built using javascript, objective-c (iOS) and java (Android).

Your focus will be to make sure these services are efficient, scalable and easy to extend. If you want to add lots of new code and promote your favourite framework then this is not the place for you. If you love elegance and you love to take an existing powerful platform and make it sing then we want to talk to you.

On top of this we hope you're someone who loves automated deployment systems like capistrano and puppet so you can make your job easier over time, not more complex.

We also offer some of the most challenging development projects available, with a focus on R&D in the areas of Computer Vision, Augmented Reality (https://buildAR.com) and the Augmented Web (http://www.w3.org/community/ar/demos-and-projects/). But be prepared to have your brain stretched and your crazy ideas listened to.

Once you've worked with our team you'll have head hunters from all over the world chasing you.
But be warned...you'll also probably never be able to work in a traditional job ever again!

NOTE: This job opening will stay open until we find the right person and we're very picky so this takes as long as it takes.

If you think you can add value to our team then contact us at jobs <at> mob-labs <dot> com.

* Based in Sydney or Canberra
* Full-Time Continuing Contract
* Competitive Salary Package
