About Dscout
At Dscout, we're building the most flexible and powerful UX research platform on the market-trusted by the world's top brands in finance (JP Morgan Chase, Intuit, Charles Schwab, PayPal), healthcare (Aya, Headspace), consumer goods (Keen, Verizon, Target, Northface), and tech (Google, Amazon, Facebook, Meta, Spotify, AirBnB). Our tools help teams deeply understand the humans behind their products, so they can build better ones. We are expanding our smart and driven team and would love for you to join us.
We're looking for smart and driven DevOps Engineers to help scale our platform. You have experience with AWS infrastructure and beyond and have seen a couple (or more) different ways to do it. You are fully bought into IaC (Infrastructure as Code), have used one of the popular tools (Terraform, CloudFormation, etc), and are excited to help us evolve our infrastructure automation.
You have a product mindset and have a history of working with application developers, Quality Engineers, and Security & Compliance teams to understand their needs, prioritize them, and deliver DevOps solutions that address those. You use AI coding tools daily, and like everything else you ship, you trust the output only as far as you've verified it. You are also data driven and use metrics to drive your decisions.
You are capable of juggling many tasks involving future projects, support requests, and SRE duties - including being a primary responder to production incidents, since compliance limits production access on many systems to DevOps.
Our team is growing but we're not a big company. We work collaboratively, move fast (we deploy to production many times a day), and we value technical quality. If you are excited about the challenge of building a platform that powers an incredible product while working alongside a great engineering team, we'd love to hear from you!
