Digabit - DevOps

"benefits including UNLIMITED PTO"

Let's be real - unlimited PAID time off is not real.  Maybe you can manage your own out-of-office time, as long as everything gets done on time.
________________________________________

*Who are you?*
Do you have a passion for Cloud and SaaS applications running on
state-of-the-art technology? Do you have technical expertise with Web and
Java Application Servers, Linux/UNIX? Do you enjoy scripting, automation
and working with configuration management tools like Puppet/Chef or
monitoring tools like Nagios? If so, we have a great opportunity for you.

*Who are we?*
We founded Digabit after meeting an Original Equipment Manufacturer
executive who was frustrated by the distribution of his company's technical
documents. Even though they built equipment that cost millions of dollars
and provided customers with thousands of pages of documentation, there was
no easy way to link these documents, update them and redistribute them.
There had to be a better way.

Documoto, along with its suite of supporting products, is our answer to
this frustration. This modern, web-based library for technical
documentation and parts catalogs gives employees, dealers, distributors and
customers the tools they need to effectively find the right part, repair
assemblies and publish and access electronic parts catalogs on the go,
24/7/365.

Documoto supports aftermarket parts sales, ERP integration, and 3D parts
catalogs for OEMs and asset-intensive industries.

*The Role*

software.

for our production platform, and the development and test infrastructure
