About the Role:

We are looking for a DevOps Engineer to join our DevOps team. This role sits at the intersection of infrastructure, deployment, reliability, and developer enablement. This is a hands-on technical role working closely with development teams (your internal customers) to build and improve the systems that power MaintainX.
You will play a key role in two major initiatives:
Developer Experience (DevEx)
We are evolving how developers interact with infrastructure. Our goal is to empower product engineers to independently own and deploy their services while ensuring security, scalability, and reliability. You will help build the tooling and infrastructure that makes this possible.
