Xneelo is looking for senior full-stack developers to spearhead the development of our brand-new product: xneelo Cloud.
Xneelo Cloud is a versatile, Infrastructure-as-a-Service cloud product offering scalable compute, storage, and network resources. This product is currently in beta, and is getting ready for full market release in the near future.
This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a team that is launching a new flagship Cloud product for xneelo. Our initial launch is focused on the South African market, and rapidly building on the Cloud features to add ongoing value to our customers. Once this is achieved, we plan to expand to the global market.
The Cloud product team is a close-knit, engaged, and productive group that is passionate about Cloud. As a developer in the team you'll be responsible for building the tools, services and dashboards that our customers use to create their own virtualised environments.
You'll work closely with the infrastructure team, building on top of the underlying compute and storage infrastructure, powered by OpenStack and Ceph. Python is primarily used to build and customise our open-source dashboard.
The Cloud team is also pioneering Go as the team's primary language, whereas Ruby on Rails is more widely used within xneelo. Other items in our tech stack toolbox are Typescript, React, k8s, Redis, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, and Gitlab to name a few.
