Our Stack

At SolarWinds we are always striving to move forward! Our Engineering teams are encouraged to always take a proactive approach to technical innovation. They are given relative autonomy to select the best technology and toolset to solve the problem at hand. We host most of our applications within Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud infrastructure, and we are increasingly utilising Docker containers and Kubernetes for the deployment of our infrastructure.

Engineers are always given ample opportunities to research new technologies and the benefit they can bring to our fast-paced, but exciting environment. Currently, we have a growing list of microservices written in Java, C# and golang, utilising Event driven architecture, supported by Kafka.

Responsibilities

Due to this approach, we do have a wide ranging technical stack, giving Engineers an excellent opportunity to learn new skills. We have many different software components and stacks to support our products, including our original LAMP (Linux/Apache/MySQL/PHP) stack and our ever-growing AngularJS UI.

You’ll work as part of a cross-functional Agile team using the latest tools, methodologies and techniques to solve complex problems, both locally and at scale.
