• KKR entered into an agreement to purchase the EUC business from Broadcom in early 2024. Within several months, we expect to begin operating as an independent company - a unicorn with ambitious goals and tremendous growth opportunities. This is your opportunity to join the team as we start this new and exciting leg of our journey.

What is the primary need, technical challenge, and / or problem you will be responsible for?

We are always working to improve our SaaS service and stay current with the latest technologies and trends. Currently, we are re-architecting our private data centers and transitioning significant parts of our service to AWS. We have projects focused on security, cost optimizations, improving observability and automating response to alerts. In the spirit of continuous learning, the journey never stops. We are always reviewing and adopting new technologies and techniques to improve our service offering.

Success in the Role : What are the performance goals over the first 6-12 months you will work toward completing?

Even as you onboard, you begin contributing in small ways and start helping the team. You’re contributing code and ideas almost immediately, developing relationships with team members, discussing problems and possible solutions, and learning about our operation.

You quickly establish a reputation for leadership within a team and demonstrate influence within your areas of expertise. You are known for going above and beyond. You collaborate well across the global team.

After 2-3 months on the job, you’re ready to lead technical projects. At the same time you’re contributing to the discussion about “what” we should be doing - not just “how” we do it.

You continue to grow and develop your expertise and understanding of our service and customers. After 6-9 months on the job you’re regarded across the BU as a highly-valued senior DevOps engineer.
