Cloud Team Synopsis : In pursuit of our mission, we run one of the largest private Openstack clouds in the world across seven geographical sites. Operating at this scale comes with challenges. A core value of Blizzard is to learn and grow, so as we solve and overcome these challenges, we are compelled to share our solutions. To that end we contribute to many Openstack projects including Magnum, Senlin and Designate. While we continue to scale and grow an awesome private cloud, our strategy for the future is hinged upon multi cloud. We value public cloud for functionality, reach and scale when it makes sense. The agility offered by multi cloud has helped realize many successes. This internship will provide insight and perspective into the software it takes to run a private cloud environment. Interns will have the opportunity to learn Go in a practical assignment, solving a fixed-length real-world problem for Blizzard. You will make a lasting difference to how we power Blizzards epic entertainment experiences.
