Excellent Linux systems engineering skills, including practical knowledge of configuration / infrastructure as code (Ansible, Puppet, Terraform, etc.)
Experience and enthusiasm for collaboration and mentoring
Well-honed problem solving skills, including a willingness to pitch in to resolve issues even if they're not part of your domain.
Ability to lead large projects to completion
Excellent written and oral communication skills including the ability to communicate highly-technical concepts to a non-technical audience

Bonus Points

At Pixar, you'll tackle meaningful technical challenges while contributing directly to the films that inspire millions. Beyond your technical work, you'll be part of a vibrant community where Pixarians express themselves through art, board games, maker projects, and more—you might find yourself spinning up new Kafka clusters by day and performing with your band at Pixarpalooza by night.
