Department
Globus Systems Operations
Globus (www.globus.org) is a sustainable, non-profit unit within The University of Chicago delivering solutions to the research community worldwide. Globus develops and provides critical services that support scientific research for governmental, academic, and commercial organizations in a wide range of disciplines including life sciences, physics, and astronomy.
We develop and operate commercial-quality, cloud-based software application and platform services used by 10s of thousands of researchers to manage their large–and growing–data management challenges. We have offices located at the NBC Tower in the heart of downtown Chicago and remote employees who work-from-home.
Globus, together with Globus Labs, a research group within the University of Chicago, and part of the Data Science and Learning Division at Argonne National Labs, develop and deploy cutting edge technologies to solve new challenges facing the scientific community and enable break-through scientific discoveries.
Job Summary
The Globus Operations team is a 4-5 person group that designs, builds, and operates the cloud infrastructure behind a research-computing platform used by hundreds of institutions worldwide. Globus is a hybrid solution combining AWS-hosted orchestration services with installable applications, delivering identity and access management, data transfer and sharing, and task automation as both software-as-a-service (SaaS) and platform-as-a-service (PaaS).
As a senior member of this small, high-autonomy team, you will ensure software development and operational best practices are effectively integrated across our services and AWS infrastructure. The team owns an unusually broad estate — an AWS Organization of roughly thirty production accounts, a golden-image pipeline producing around thirty machine images, a self-hosted monitoring platform, a centralized security-logging pipeline, and in-house compliance and security automation — all managed as code in Python, Bash, Terraform,
CloudFormation, and Ansible. You will work both collaboratively and independently on complex issues and projects, in some cases making progress under minimal guidance. You will also embed with select software engineering teams to provide operational and infrastructure guidance on best practices.
We are looking for a senior engineer equally comfortable improving a build pipeline and debugging a production incident, and who will be a leader and educator both within and across teams.
