About the role

Lumafield's scanners produce the data. Voyager is where that data becomes a decision - with nothing but a web browser, anyone can visualize, analyze, and share industrial CT data globally.

  • You've owned a production SaaS platform end to end: uptime, on-call, release engineering, and the infrastructure bill. You know what your cloud spend is and why

  • You know what it takes to deploy solutions in the cloud and on premises. Performance deltas and reliability are proactive motions, not afterthoughts
  • You define what done means, you unblock the team, and you are well versed in Radical Candor
  • You love startups. You're highly engaged, you control the chaos, you rally when it's crunch time, and you love working through ambiguity
