Infrastructure Engineer at Mullvad VPN // Gothenburg

We believe that privacy is fundamental to a well-functioning society where norms, ethics, and laws can be safely discussed and challenged. That same society cannot flourish and develop, nor can it exist, without privacy. That’s why we provide a VPN service: because privacy is paramount. We are Mullvad VPN ( (https://mullvad.net/en/)) and we want to grow, get shown and become accessible in stores all across the globe. Do you, our new Infrastructure engineer, also believe in making internet censorship and mass surveillance ineffective?

About the position as Infrastructure engineer
The Infrastructure team is looking to grow in order to expedite, iterate upon and improve the delivery, continuous integration and scaling of our services. Within our team, you will collaborate with the Services, App, Operations, and Support teams to ensure that our services are functioning optimally.

The next projects in our pipeline are to do with adding a more thorough testing and implementation CI/CD model for our Ansible configuration management set up. This is with the hope that we can improve our current deployments and work more towards our trustworthy computing platform with System Transparency (https://mullvad.net/en/blog/2019/6/3/system-transparency-future/).

We are looking for you...
if you have a flair for programming and a keen interest in technology. The cause is what drives you, and with that, you have a huge passion for transparency. You know that trust is a fragile thing: difficult to build, easy to lose. And now you want to blaze the trail with us and develop the most secure VPN service (it’s not a statement, it’s an ambition). If so, and if you are a problem-solving ninja with a profoundly curious mind for systems with a heavy focus on security and privacy, then you’re already a Mullvad, ready to come home.

Requirements

- Extensive experience and knowledge working with, implementing and maintaining CI/CD tools and pipelines. Even better if you have managed the servers yourself
- Knowledge and experience in Ansible (or similar SCM tools: Salt, Chef, Puppet, etc) for Linux server configuration management. (We run Ubuntu)
- Comfortable working with Bash and/or Python scripts
- Experience with Docker and container orchestration technologies


Desirable:

- A flair for programming or a keen interest in learning more about Golang or Rust
- Familiarity with using Qubes OS
- A history of working with bare metal infrastructure
- An interest in dabbling with tools and concepts related to network booting. (perhaps you have already read about System Transparency?)
