The Linux Foundation Training and Certification team seeks a product-focused engineer to assist in the creation and delivery of exams for flagship open source technologies such as Linux, Kubernetes and Hyperledger.

We are a small, cross-functional team responsible for the implementation and support of performance-based exams which we compose with technologies we love (Hugo, Packer, Terraform and Ansible). We also design, implement and support the bespoke delivery platform (Python and AWS services) which delivers our exams to thousands of candidates every month.
