About the role

We're looking for a Senior Devops Engineer to own the infrastructure behind one of the world's largest location analytics platforms - from CI/CD pipelines and cloud environments to developer tooling and observability. This is a hands-on, end-to-end ownership role at the intersection of scale, reliability, and engineering velocity. Your recruiter can share more about the specific salary range for your preferred location during the hiring process.

What they're looking for

  • 5+ years in a Production Engineering, SRE, or Platform Engineering role at a SaaS product company
  • 3+ years of hands-on Kubernetes in production - not just deployment, but operating and scaling it
  • 2+ years with IaC tools - Terraform, Pulumi, or equivalent at real scale
  • Experience managing production databases and queues - PostgreSQL, Redis, Kafka, or similar
  • Proficiency in at least one general-purpose language - Python, Go, or Ruby
  • Strong monitoring and alerting fundamentals - you build the systems that catch problems before users do

Our A.I.-based SaaS platform transforms how leaders make critical decisions by unlocking unparalleled visibility into markets and locations, creating a blue ocean market of more than $100B.
