Senior DevOps Manager

Cooperative Computing (CC): We accelerate growth minded companies into the automated economy. 

The business market is in rapid change, with consumer behavior placing significantly high expectations on businesses at every phase in the client experience. Each day, we experience a company dramatically shifting “industry norms” and in many cases, removing historical market leaders from their market leading position. These elements create extraordinary opportunities for our team members to excel. 

CC delivers superior client experiences as the premier digital enabler of growth minded enterprises enabling their rapid growth and ensuring their sustainable and smooth transition into the Automated Economy. 

Our team is passionate about delivering client value and is fanatical in how we go about ensuring we deliver extraordinary business results for our clients. We are committed to growing as individuals first, becoming the best version of ourselves for who we have been created to be. We take responsibility in our thoughts and actions, know our purpose and our end in mind, and put these first in our lives. 

• Be Fanatical and Passionate Delivering Superior Client Experiences - It’s who we are! 
• Growth is Contagious - I grow, You grow, We all grow! 
• Be Innovative - Looking at tomorrow today. We live outside our comfort zone; we ask difficult questions of ourselves; we take risks, and we are fearless to experiment and lead the way forward. 
• Show Empathy & Be Honest - Every single word spoken, or action performed for our Customers, Team Members, Partners & Stakeholders will be filled with kindness, candor, and honesty. 
• High Performance - It’s not for everyone - Our culture is our team members. We make the lives of our fellow team members better by first recognizing “I” am a team member first. We measure our progress constantly to be a better version of ourselves with every new day.
