**Heads up req - waiting on getting official approval from HR to assist them***

I just spoke w/ Kamil who is the Manager of IT Operations at Geode, he was referred to me by Dani Pajevic who went to middle school with him, small world!

He is in need an Application/Production Support Engineer.  This role is going to report directly to Kamil and will be his 1st hire since he was promoted to manager.  He is looking for a mid level candidate with about 3-5 years of experience.  This is a pure app support role, so there is certainly going to be some downtime when things are slow.  The position will focus heavily on their internal applications.

 

The ideal candidate is going to work very closely with Kamil and support all of their internal applications and users.  All of Geode's applications are internal applications except for Charles River (All their trading is outsourced to CRD)  They have an Agile environment and would love someone that has exposure to Docker, as that is what they will use to release the current code ( Internal Systems are legacy based, so some old school stuff)

 

Must Haves:

Linux/Bash Scripting (Biggest key)

Docker experience (Preferred)

SQL (Very useful)

He is not looking for a developer, but someone who can at least read code would be great.  He did say he wants a "GEEK" and by that he means, if someone does not have experience with certain technologies, they are someone that would go home at night and learn on their own, and research the newer technologies to teach them self!  A pure technology geek in his own words!

Kamil started his career at State Street and went to Wellington from there and has now been at Geode foe 4 years.  Started in this role 4 years ago and has climbed the ladder and got promoted to manager in April of this year!

 

Salary is in the $70-$100K range + bonus

Eligible for shares in the company upon startgin

401K - Geode takes 11% of your base + bonus and automatically puts that towards your 401K no matter how much you contribute.

They also match up to 4% / 5 year vesting period

Vacation: 15 days, but they do not have "sick days" so he said it is basically about 22 days of vacation time 

Very good work life balance, he came from Wellington so he said it is a breath of fresh air.  He works from 6:30am - 2:30pm so they have very flexible hours if someone wants to come in early or come in later!

Company has 100 people - but only about 10-15 in IT side of the house

 

Application Support Engineer

Team some additional notes: 

This team does a lot of work with unstructured data and advanced data analytics. There is a lot of "grunt work" that goes along with this role. Currently there is a background of 110 projects and interaction with Portfolio managers and research analysts. Candidates must be able to work with a ton of Autonomy and not be afraid of failure. Krishna said they fail at least a few times before finding a solution but they do it together. 

Team this is the place holder for the role with Simon Chao and Krishna Valluru. This is a very unique role that they are looking to fill. This is targeted for a 6 month contract as their internal resource had their H1B denied and they had to leave the country. They are working on getting him back but they are not sure if they will. This person will need to be a TRUE full stack developer that will literally be working on hundreds of projects. They have a daily stand up meeting with 18 ppl in the room every day to target their daily goals. Ideally they are looking for someone that has strong OO dev experience which could be python, C# or Java. On the front end they are using Angular 6. This is their biggest weakness where this person excelled for the team. They are looking for a hard charging young person that wants to learn and asks a lot of questions and is not afraid to speak up. Krishna said that they are going to be hiring more people just like him throughout the year. This role is within Asset Management but they DO NOT need to have experience with Domain. Rate needs to be less than $100/hr and MUST interview in person. Bru will add some of his notes to this as well from our meeting. 

Putting this in just in case we have anyone from Acadian searches - Not an "A" req right now as they do have 2 phone screens lined up today and onsite the end of this week, but I do have Direct Manager contact.

ONSITE INTERVIEW required - I asked about Skypes and he said that the last 2 Skype interviews have not went well, therefore wants local / onsite candidates.  Geode is a smaller shop so communication is crucial!

Interview process will be phone screen with Kamil (Hiring Manager) followed by possibly a 2nd phone or ONSITE.

Rates are equivalent to Acadian roles - I would say in the $120-$140/hr range

Geode is now at 100 Summer Street in Boston as well!

Notes: 
Team,
We received a fixed price bid from Buckeye Partners, who are wanting to partner with someone who can create a ML solution for their “Dig Forecasting/Advanced Analytics” project. This is a great opportunity to showcase our capabilities by providing a consultant that can lead this project.  
I think it would be a good idea to identify a consultant who has done something similar to this project in the Oil and Gas industry, but we can consider someone outside of the Oil and Gas industry if we have no luck finding someone there.
At the minimum, doing this we will show Buckeye that we can find them top level talent to earn credibility and have more seats at the table. Hopefully, we can respond back to Hung with a Times & Materials bid and get a conversation going.
After reading more about the project below, please share any suggestions or comments.

Best,
Josh


More information about the project: Dig Forecasting is referring to call 811 (811 is the national call-before-you-dig phone number for anyone who plans to dig). They receive 1,000 requests a day via 811 for their 6,600-mile footprint of pipeline. This is being done manually and they want someone to provide a solution to automate this process. The current process is, they receive a call via 811 requesting where Buckeye’s pipe is exactly in the ground, a ticket is created, then Buckeye has to manually provide their documents/easements to provide this information.

Here is a search string I ran to see what I could come up with on LinkedIn Sales Navigator and it pulled up some good candidates. You probably could drop the "dig OR 811" and find a lot more. 
SS: Azure and Architect AND ML OR "machine learning" AND dig OR 811

Project Description:
As part of an advanced analytics initiative, Buckeye set up a platform on MS Azure foe end-to-end lifecycle of ML based solutions for various use cases. In the first phase of the initiative, Birlasoft will help with the architecture and implantation of underlying infrastructure on MS Azure to onboard an existing advanced analytics use case (ML model for Dig Forecasting) already developed by the operations team. The main goal is to leverage an existing ML Model to architect and deliver a platform which will set the foundation and can be scaled in the future to deliver and support various operational use cases.
 
Scope:
Due Diligence / Requirements discovery for the future-envision Unified Azure Platform:
Ø  Assessing the requirement on Azure platform assessment areas – Cost, Storage, Reporting, Security, Monitoring, Periodic Re-training, ML Pipeline, deployment, re-training in Azure Cloud
Ø  Understanding the existing Technology ecosystem
Ø  Understanding of existing Machine learning model(s) requiring deployment to Azure
Recommendations & Build for the Platform:
Ø  Recommendation on platform and configurations
Ø  Setting up Azure Infrastructure based on present ML model needs
Machine Learning Deployment:
Ø  Implement scoring files to expose existing model using Python scripting
Ø  Deploy the model developed by our customer on the Azure Platform and make it functional end-to-end
Ø  Exposing the ML model as an Endpoint for Inference (consumption) process
Ø  Creating the Azure SQL DB for data storage & maintenance
Ø  Utilizing the model output via Power BI (using endpoint keys of ML model).

-Have you ran into any issues with Entity Framework? What are some of the pitfalls?
-When it comes to LINQ, we use it heavily. We load everything into memory; then we do a bunch of map produce types of operations on that data - all in memory with Linq. So, we use seratex Linq methods; are you familiar with other methods?

-How about the task parrel library (TPL)?
-Are you familiar async programming and parallel programming?
-Can you tell me more about what is going on behind the scenes whenever you are dealing with async await situation? Do you know what the intermediate language is actually doing under the covers?

-How much experience do you have with Angular?
-Are there any downsides or limitations associated with Angular guards? And is there anything you would need to do besides Angular guards to ensure the application is secure?
-When you have a frontend app that is an angular app, how do you get data in?

-What sort of data is in a jwt token?
-Are jwt's secure by themselves?

-How familiarity do you have with Azure? Azure DevOps?

Team, below is the information for the DevOps "wizard" Steve is wanting at Cetera. I'm adding it to the sheet (not bolded). If we can find someone that aligns, I will send immediately. 

Rate wise, I am open to suggestions. I would imagine someone like this will be $140+, but I have never lived in the DevOps world that much. 

As for the software development (Java) background requirement, I'd say if we can find a candidate that has been a software engineer/developer (Java) for at least 2-3 years, let's give it a shot. And if we feel like someone may not be strong enough in Java, we can give them a quick Glider test to send as well. 

Please let me know if you have any questions , suggestions, or candidates. 

Josh



Job Title: DevOps Engineer

Location: Remote (US hours)

Return to office policy: n/a

Bill Rate: unknown; I would think around $130 give or take. If you can find me this "wizard" I will send them!

Duration: long-term

Interview mode: 1 IV via Zoom

Notes: 

"Hi Josh. Here’s a wish list. There more of these boxes we can check, the better. Preferably someone with a Developer (coding) background, not just someone who knows pipeline setup. Terraform knowledge. AWS experience. Better if they’ve worked on more than one brand of cloud platform. (AWS, Azure, GCP) Familiar with CICD principles and blue/green deployment architecture. Our goal is multiple daily releases to Production during normal business hours. Understands Trunk Based Development. Test Driven Development. ATDD. Familiar with ensemble programming (pairing, swarming, mobbing). Familiar with Agile/Scrum. If they are familiar with Dave Farley, Jezz Humble, Gene Kim, Dragan Steponovich, Thierry DePauw that’s great. Team is all remote essentially, so location is anywhere"

"I'm one step away from the hiring, so I'm just trying to farm people. Cetera is the company. I am a contractor myself. A lot of our people are contractors, but there are some FTEs. I don't know if they'll do FTE for this, but I would say it's possible.  Day to day: We both need to bail water out of the boat, and also fix holes in the boat. So the person may need to work with a team of developers writing code if that's the hottest item on our plate. If it makes more sense to fix holes in the boat, then they would be evaluating our DevOps practices and building the new CICD pipeline.  I have a pretty strong sense of what I want, bc I've built it before at another company. My goal is a blue/green CICD pipeline in AWS. The target is multiple daily releases to Production during normal business hours. Each environment identical, built by Terraform.  I have a PPT that gives a block diagram level explanation of what we built before, and how our process works. I can share that if you'll remind me your email address.  Comp, I literally have no idea. It's not my budget. And I'm not the person hiring. Which means I can be incredibly candid with you and the candidate. I can tell you anything with full transparency and try to help you out as much as possible - and I don't have to tell the company anything.  We just need to see how many people fit the specifics of what we need, and what they want for comp."


Senior DevOps Engineer with Developer background.
Fully remote. Must be US business hours.
5+ years experience across both DevOps and software development. Front-end + back-end a plus.
Experience with AWS, Kubernetes/EKS. Other cloud platform experience a plus.
Experience with IAC. Able to build/tear-down identical environments via Terraform.
Experience with more than one repo environment a plus (Gitlab, BitBucket, etc.)
Familiar with Agile principles and Scrum framework.
Experience with data and databases in a modern CICD environment a plus.
Experience in regulated environments (health, finance) a plus.
Superior communication skills and social work habits. Enjoys working with others, sharing, teaching. Mentor, advise, guide. Help build a better environment around you every day. Strong internal motivation and “never content” mindset, while also accepting “what is” today.
 
Strong opinions, principles, philosophy of modern development. BDD, TDD, TBD, ATDD, ensemble programming (pairing, swarming, mobbing). Familiarity with Dave Farley, Jezz Humble, Gene Kim, Nicole Forsgren, DORA principles and metrics. Bias for automation, continually seek to reduce reliance on manual intervention. Bias for root cause analysis, not blame.
What you’ll do: Modernize a mid-size software development organization. Prioritize between development as needed and the primary goal of building a modern CICD DevOps pipeline. The target goal is blue/green CICD triggered by passing fully automated test suites. Enable multiple daily releases to Production during normal business hours with zero risk (as covered by tests, in a non-user-visible Prod environment before exposure to users).
By working with development teams as needed, you will understand the software, find opportunities and advise on specific steps to move towards modern DevOps principles. Work with Release Managers to understand release priorities and timelines and provide guidance to help continually improve release capability. Work with environment infrastructure to own the CICD DevOps pipeline and optimize total system flow. Advise, collaborate, and teach others. Understand the needs and goals of each group, and adopt their goals as your own, while maintaining strong principles. Find ways to explain Ideal State, and individual steps towards that Ideal State. 
 
Our stack/environment: Angular, Java, AWS, Elastic, BitBucket, SonarQube, MuleSoft, JMeter, SpringBoot, Informatica, Drupal, Redis, Apache Tomcat, Docker, Rancher, Postgres, NPM, Gradle, Jenkins, Fortify, Centrify, Salesforce, box, Docupace. 

Team, below is one of the two positions with Motion Industries (Mi). George is wanting these two resources, or one full stack resource, to help rebuild their ecomm platform. We have to administrate a code challenge where they actually code and present the results. Also, I have never know him to hire someone with out a CS degree. Please take a look below and the Backend Software Engineer job as well and let me know if there are any questions. 

Thanks,
Josh

Talked to John about the PM role this morning. He is doing the interviewing for the role which will consist of a phone screen with him and then bring the person onsite - but the hiring manager is actually Steve Jamison. The role has been open for about 6-7 weeks. He absolutely needs to run it through Veritude because he wants the person for the long term and he said it is that much easier to keep someone longterm rather than Professional services. 

The key factor for this role is the RATE. He ABSOLUTELY needs to keep the rate at $90/hr absolute max. He has spoke with several strong candidates but the rate has been a struggle for him. 

Although this is a Project Manager role the person will be doing about 40% Project Administration --- status reporting/financials/coordination/facilitation etc. 

API/Webservices experience is preferred but not a must - but he would like someone that has an understanding - they dont need to come from a software engineering/technical background - but if they do that will put them to the top of the list. 

I mentioned that we worked with Kevin West and Vicki and he instantly said anyone that you have spoke to that has done well with them would be someone he would definitely want to talk to as he knows they are a tough group to get into. 

Position can sit in MMK or Smithfield - MMK is the preference though. It will include 1-2 days a month of travel to either location depending on where the candidate is sitting!!

Some travel to Smithfield, but role sits in MMK!!
