Responsibilities

VPN is a mission-driven company with a focus on privacy within the larger VPN consumer market. We have been around for 15 years and are preparing to launch new privacy services in 2025. We are also in the process of rolling out a new VPN infrastructure utilizing new technologies to radically improve the transparency of our service. We are looking for an experienced system administrator to maintain and scale our existing high-performance network of VPN servers and related infrastructure. The position is fully remote with a high level of autonomy and requires that you thrive in this type of environment. What you will work on: You will be responsible for maintaining and ensuring the high availability of our network of hundreds of servers in production, using your expertise in DevOps and general Linux server administration. Occasionally, you will be required to address urgent issues beyond normal working hours. You will be responsible for interfacing with ISPs to resolve upstream network issues. You will provide tier 2/3 support to our customer support team for issues relating to infrastructure. You will be responsible for consolidating infrastructure, unifying monitoring, and aligning operational practices across the business. What can you expect: We work in a fully remote setting with a high degree of independence. This means maximum freedom, minimum meetings. If your ideal workplace offers regular meetups and busy chat channels, IVPN is probably not a good fit for you. On the other hand, if you value autonomy and focused work, you will appreciate our culture. We offer 25 days of vacation per year, the hardware of your choice to do your job, plus ample budget for your research projects. How we stand out from the crowd of VPN providers: * Early adopters of the latest protocols and technologies (like WireGuard) to improve our service. * Strict ethical stances around data collection and marketing practices – principles over profits. * Clear commitment to regular audits and transparency. * Recommended by experts whose voice we truly value – those not motivated by affiliate payouts. Requirements: * 5+ years experience managing Linux servers, including bare-metal. * Strong understanding of TCP/IP, UDP, SSL/TLS and other related Internet protocols. * Strong experience working with a configuration management tool e.g. Ansible, Puppet, Salt. * 5+ years experience with Python, Go or other scripting languages. * Understanding and interest in infosec, specifically in regard to public key cryptography, firewalls and Linux server hardening.
