Want to build the future faster than most people think reasonable? We need DevOps Engineers to help us transform how people interact with the web.

We’re a fast‑growing, profitable, self‑funded SaaS platform with 4.8★ customer love and a 4.9★ team score. Right now we’re building the next generation of our platform to capitalize on what modern AI can do

What you’ll build

  • Streamlined CI/CD pipelines to ship code safer, faster, and more often

  • Highly available Kubernetes clusters powering real-time auditing and simulation bots

  • Observability systems that help us see around corners, and act fast when things break

  • Scalable infrastructure on AWS to support planet-scale crawlers and AI-driven analysis

  • Terraform-powered playgrounds where devs can experiment, scale, and even break things - without taking the whole house down

How we work

  • Core stack: AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform, MySQL, Redis, RabbitMQ, Temporal

  • Tooling: GitHub Actions, Grafana, Helm, ArgoCD, Docker, OSS LLMs

  • Culture: ship often; own the outcome; debate ideas, not egos

You’ll thrive here if you…

  • Have 3+ years of experience building and managing cloud infrastructure (AWS, Terraform, and Kubernetes are must-haves)

  • Value clean, reusable IaC and clear documentation

  • Take pride in keeping systems optimized, scalable, and secure

  • Enjoy automating everything - from infrastructure provisioning to monitoring

  • Are excited about working with generative AI and bringing its capabilities into real-world infrastructure

  • Are passionate about optimizing the developer experience - from faster pipelines to clearer tooling

Bonus points for…

  • Monitoring / metrics tooling (Grafana, etc.)

  • Experience with MySQL, Redis, RabbitMQ, or Temporal

  • Self-hosted LLM experience or AWS-based side-projects

You won’t love it here if you…

  • Avoid ownership or blame the tools

  • Need a ticket for every task

  • Prefer “enterprise process” over “move fast and fix things”

Location & lifestyle

  • Hybrid in downtown Austin - 3 days a week at our dog‑friendly office in the historic Littlefield Building, 106 E 6th St (6th & Congress) with 24/7 parking

  • Walk‑out access to the city’s best tacos, coffee, live music, and Lady Bird Lake trails

What you’ll get

  • Top-spec MacBook Pro (M4 or better)

  • Private Health / Dental / Vision + monthly wellness stipend

  • 401(k) with company match

  • 20 days PTO + US holidays (vacation grows with tenure)

  • Flexible hours, casual dress, weekly team lunches, monthly outings
