As a product-driven company founded by engineers, we know the value of a great engineering culture, and we’re looking for a Principal DevOps Engineer to join a team built from the ground up on trust, teamwork and tight feedback loops.

As a Principal DevOps Engineer you’ll work collaboratively using a pragmatically-chosen modern tech stack (Kubernetes, AWS, Terraform, .NET) to help Gearset run a scalable, secure and reliable service, and enable development of the solution to scale with the rapid growth of the company.

We live by our core values, which aren’t just nice words - they guide us through day-to-day challenges and are the foundation of how we work together. Our pragmatic approach has allowed us to maintain the ability to release updates to our application multiple times a day, even as we add new features to the product and expand our global footprint.

Have experience running production-level services in Kubernetes and managing and maintaining clusters

Practical experience automating the management of infrastructure with Terraform

Experience in the configuration and running of a CI/CD pipeline

Previous experience supporting the operation of a hosted, multi-tenant SaaS product at scale
