antsle because of its affordability and built-in privacy compared to public hosting. The antsle Private Cloud

Server ensures an efficient and joyful user experience by combining cutting-edge hardware with our

preinstalled software anstleOS and antMan. Our antsleOS is based on the mighty Gentoo Linux with libvirt

technology, supporting both KVM and LXC virtualization. If you’re passionate about giving freedom, control

and data ownership back to the people then this is the place for you!

Fun things you’ll be doing to make an impact:
• Be the beloved carer and maintainer of antsleOS: our own Linux distro based on Gentoo, specialized

on virtualization using libvirt.
• Be the hero(ine) — Monitor and apply security updates to antsleOS to keep all ants safe.
• Make customers’ lives better by creating and managing our set of templates, which are pre-

configured OSs and apps.
• Be creative — Constantly improve antsleOS, as well as our template portfolio, and add cool new

features.
• Coach our tech support team to support antsleOS.

Skills that will help you succeed:
• Be our Gentoo Linux wizard, including portage and emerge (6+ months)
• Hands-on experience with ZFS, as well as libvirt and the LXC and KVM hypervisors (6+ months)
• Strength with platforms such as Docker, CoreOS / ContainerLinux, Rancher, OpenStack, Proxmox,

etc.
• Knowledge of basic networking protocols, DNS, DHCP, ssh, IP addressing

Your enthusiasm to learn is just as important to us as what you currently know, hence the following are

preferred but definitely not required:
• Knowledge of several tech stacks (LAMP, Ruby on Rails, nodeJS, Java …)
• Experience with virtualization platforms (VMware, VirtualBox, Hyper-V, etc.)
• Know-how with container orchestration tools
• Power of experience with Solaris or SmartOS

What your colleagues are saying about antsle:
• Our culture is based on mutual trust and empowerment of each individual on our team. We believe

that human dignity is inviolable, and that open communication independent of corporate hierarchy

is key to success. We are all part of this winning team, where you, too, can thrive in our autonomous,

innovative environment.
• Compensation is based on experience.
• Located in Downtown San Diego, you will enjoy beautiful weather year round, stunning beaches, a

relatively low cost of living, and a thriving tech and startup community.
• We embrace cutting-edge and open-source technology (e.g. Clojure, using the functional

programming paradigm, Gentoo, ZFS, etc.), where it is the most effective in our development

process.
