About the company and project:
ZONE3000 is proud to represent its partnership with Namecheap (www.namecheap.com). Namecheap was founded in 2000 on the idea that all people deserve value-priced domains delivered through stellar service. Today, Namecheap is a leading ICANN-accredited domain name registrar and web hosting company with over 16 million customers and 19 million domains under management — and we’re just getting started.
Our culture is built on the values that we live every day: the way we work, the way we collaborate with our global network of colleagues and the way we relentlessly innovate solutions that meet the emerging needs of our customers.
We are the Hosting team, and we’ve successfully launched a new VPS Hosting product for customers around the world — and this is just the beginning. The project is growing fast as we expand its capabilities and evolve it into a large-scale platform.
We’re looking for a teammate who shares our passion for building and improving hosting infrastructure that is secure, manageable, and intelligent.
Our working processes are designed to help you do your best work: you’ll have time to focus, plan thoughtfully, and dive deep into problems without constant interruptions. We emphasize research and development over routine operations.
You’ll be joining a collaborative team that supports each other, openly discusses ideas, and isn’t afraid to challenge assumptions in pursuit of better solutions.
