Simple Analytics | DevOps Engineer | REMOTE (worldwide, any timezone) | Full-time, 32h, 24h possible | €5,000/month (full-time) | https://www.simpleanalytics.com/jobs/devops
Hi HN, I'm Adriaan. Simple Analytics exists thanks to HN: it started with my Show HN in 2018 [1]. Today we're a self-funded, profitable team of four building privacy-first analytics.
Privacy is why we run our own bare-metal servers instead of the cloud. We're preparing for a LOT more traffic, and you'll own the infrastructure and its reliability. We have good documentation. First project: leading the infra side of our Elasticsearch to ClickHouse migration, with Alex, our developer.
Stack: Ansible, OpenTofu, Docker Compose, Grafana, GitHub Actions, TypeScript. Clear async communication matters more than knowing every tool.
A tip for the upcoming ones: please tell us about yourself instead of repeating the job ad back to us. Leave your AI off for 10 minutes, and give us those spelling mistakes!
As feedback I just want to say, the salary feels low. I work in the Netherlands too and I think I’d have all your requirements. However, the job would be a big step down in salary - that’s also compared to similar roles I see around.
When you say "Full-time, 32h, 24h possible | €5,000/month (full-time)" is the €5,000/month salary pegged at 40h/week so that the actual payment is scaled up/down based on the number of hours worked per week?
