Job description

Generative Engineering is bringing AI design into the real world by enabling generative engineering design for physical products. Our focus is creating millions more engineers globally and giving them the data and knowledge necessary to make efficient decisions quickly, one of the main challenges of the physical engineering industry today.

Our team has a background in scaling software to millions of users and successfully disrupting industries, creating Unicorn's and Decacorn's along the way. We combine the advantages of an early-stage start-up with the ability to focus on creating high-quality, high-impact systems, without the distraction of fundraising.

We are looking for a DevOps engineer to join the team, one who understands the reality of pace and ability needed to build genuine products that scale. Please show success in your past positions.

Must Haves

• Any experience working with tech that is genuinely scaling.
• ComSci or related degree.
• Familiarity with the modern AWS stack (from S3 to IAM, to Cognito, to ECS)
• Reasonable programming ability in modern Python
• Shell scripting
• Extensive experience in modern CI systems, ideally Gitlab

Nice to Have

• Terraform / other IAC
• Deep familiarity with Linux
• SRE experience (on-calls, incident management, post-mortems)
• Nix, ideally with custom derivations, Flakes, and cross-building
• Experience with Kubernetes
• Experience running in AWS ECS in production
• Please state the word 'Salmon' anywhere in your application, just to prove you can read a job advert. Our last job ad had 657 applications, yet not a single person applied with this word. Come on, you can do it. IVE EVEN WRITTEN THIS IN BOLD AND THIS PART IN CAPITALS. PLEASE, COME ON!

We aim to improve all our colleagues' abilities and careers by exposing them to the bare bones of a tech start-up, whilst giving them the opportunity to support the company in any way. If our people continuously improve, so does our product.
