The Company

Object Matrix is the award winning software company that pioneered object storage and the modernisation of media archives. Our on-prem and hybrid cloud storage solutions bring operational and financial benefits to our customers by securely managing content at every stage of its lifecycle; from ingest and nearline to archive and distribution.

Our flexible approach, coupled with our focus on the media industry, means that our customers can trust us to deliver the solution they need. Our domain expertise, solutions and world class support are tailored to meet the growing demands faced when creating, archiving and sharing media content. Customers include: BBC, Orange, France Televisions, BT, HBO, TV Globo, MSG-N and NBC Universal.

Our offices are situated a short walk from Cardiff Central train station making it an easy commute by train. Object Matrix was listed as the fastest growing Welsh Software company 2016 (www.fastgrowth50.com/2016 (18)).

The Role

If you've proven yourself as a top-notch support engineer (Linux / Windows) and you've either gone beyond that or are looking to progress beyond that, this could be the job for you.

As a key member of a small operations team (4 people) you'll be expected to take on a variety of important company tasks. Communication skills must be excellent, along with attention to detail in all aspects (English skills, technical skills and general logging of information).

Object Matrix works with media companies around the world and from time to time travel abroad and out of hours technical support will be required. Other projects will require you to organise and manage resources (people and equipment). Other projects will require problem solving and configuring and testing new technology platforms. Another day you might be travelling abroad to give deep training on product usage. This is for a Technical Operations Manager who likes a challenge and for no two days to be the same.

Technical and Other Skills

Linux skills are essential (we use Ubuntu server mainly). If you have a strong networking background that will be helpful.

We'd expect most candidates to have 5+ years of key operations team experience - if that's missing we'd like to understand why you think you are capable for the role.

Ability to work independently and as part of a team that operates during and outside normal business hours. If you were representing the company in a key meeting would you be comfortable carrying out that meeting?

A strong desire to work with new and upcoming technologies.

Nice to Have

Multi-lingual, Broadcast + Media technology experience, Storage system experience,

Relevant Qualifications (HND, BSc, BTEC etc)

Working Hours

This is a full-time position. You will be expected to work 40 hours per week and our core business hours are UK 09:00am - 5:30pm Monday to Friday. However, as occasional travel is essential, flexible business hours will take into account hours away from base. There is also a requirement to provide out of hours support on a weekly rota basis.

What do we give you?

We are a small team of 25 people delivering a critical storage solution to media and entertainment companies around the world. As a small team, every member can make a difference to us.

Full team engagement where input will help us achieve our ambitious growth plans

Full product training

We offer flexi-time - we don't expect you to work out of hours / travel abroad and not get time back.

Company pension scheme.

Company bonuses.

Up to 25 days vacation + public holidays

Object Matrix is based in one of the coolest offices in Cardiff - you get a view over Cardiff Castle, the Millennium stadium and the Severn Estuary.

And remuneration: depending on experience: £35k -> £42k.

Application and Interviews

Please apply by sending your CV to hr@object-matrix.com with your covering letter explaining your experience relevant to the role. Interviews will be held in our Cardiff office at a mutually convenient date and time.
