Network Operations Engineer
- Full-time
Company Description
We started with a simple idea—that everyone should be able to accept credit cards—and we’ve been rethinking buying and selling ever since.
For sellers, we’re creating one cohesive service to run your entire business, from a register in your pocket to analytics on your laptop. For buyers, we’re making it faster to order from the businesses you love and more fun to pay your friends back.
Buying and selling sound like simple things—and they should be. Somewhere along the way, they got complicated. We’re working hard to make commerce easy for everyone.
Job Description
As a team, we value correctness, efficiency, and safety. We measure and monitor everything, and have a culture of continuous reflection and improvement. We aim to eliminate friction and believe that no project should be delayed due to lack of reliable infrastructure. We believe that a well built and operated network can be beautiful. We're looking for a network operations engineer who shares our values and wants to help us deliver a reliable and secure network infrastructure.

• Support and troubleshoot switches, routers, firewalls, load balancers, wireless networks and VPNs
