About the role
- Dive into scaling problems and add new capabilities to our platform.
- Build a future-proof platform that can withstand this scale.
- Collaborate with the business and the engineering team to define SLOs and implement the corresponding SLIs.
- Ensure all communication with external services supports retries and circuit-breakers.
- Implement the infrastructure to support an event-driven architecture and data warehouse.
- Help our developers ship features fast through canary deploys, gradual rollouts and feature flags.
Requirements
- You should apply if you never stop.
- You get weirdly obsessed about a problem that doesn’t yet make sense.
- You’ve built infrastructure at a slightly later stage than Ashby is at.
- You’re a Swiss army knife (all nationalities welcome ;).
Benefits
- Competitive salary and equity.
- 10-year exercise window for stock options.
- Unlimited PTO, and we will encourage you to take it.
- A minimum of 12 weeks of fully paid parental leave, covered by Ashby.
- Generous equipment, software, and office furniture budget.
- $100/month education budget with more expensive items (like conferences) covered with manager approval.
- If you’re in the US, we offer top-tier health insurance for you and your dependents, with 100% of premiums covered by Ashby.
- In other countries, we provide high-quality supplemental health insurance for you and your dependents, also fully covered by us.
