Container Solutions | https://container-solutions.com | Amsterdam, London, Zurich, REMOTE

We are looking for engineers who want to join a supportive, relaxed and experimental environment where they can express their skills. Container Solutions is a premium software consultancy & research company that focuses on programmable infrastructure. We encourage entrepreneurial people; in the last year several projects that started in Container Solutions grew as independent companies.

We are looking currently for:

Systems Developers - Implement immutable infrastructure architecture & write code for leading open source projects: Hashicorp tools, Mesos (frameworks), K8s and own projects.

Application Developers - Write applications for drones, e-commerce, big data and data science as well as for IoT devices

Support Engineers - Provide support for the systems we have built and installed. These systems include DC/OS, Mesos and K8s.

UI/UX Developers - Create beautiful and usable interfaces and are especially interested in building GUIs for distributed systems. Should have an affinity with design thinking and from the beginning, are expected to lead ideation sessions.

All our engineers are expected to share their knowledge at conferences and within the company. Switching between projects/roles is common, people can choose the project they’re most interested in.

We’re active in the open-source area (mainly where we have offices) via: meetups (Docker, Hashiconf, Software Circus), conferences (our own conference in Amsterdam: https://www.software-circus.io ), workshops, code (Minimesos: https://github.com/ContainerSolutions/minimesos ), books (Using Docker: http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920035671.do )

The open positions listed on your website don't mention specific languages which is a good thing I guess. Am I right thinking that the main languages used for a System Developer are C++ and Golang ?
Go and Java are the main languages used by us. We don't want to pass great engineers because they may not have experience with a specific language. We expect them to be willing to learn it if required (same for other technologies).
Are all the positions available for remote work?
We're open to experiment with remote candidates. We have 2 guys working outside the office locations I listed, but they are still in UK (Leeds, Edinburgh), where we have an office.
Is remote working from Asia (India, to be specific) an option?
Hi, for remote candidates, we are looking for proofs of remote capabilities. Open source projects, conference talks, any type of visibility. As we're based in Europe we prefer candidates in our own timezones, because we do collaborate on a daily basis. Or somebody we already know and trust (did business somehow together).
Are you looking for QA, Support or IT? I've provided all these remote and am ready to do so.
Not at the moment.
