Why HOVER wants you:

HOVER is looking for you. A strong software engineer with an affinity for cloud infrastructure. An individual who is eager to learn about and solve a diverse set of infrastructure problems that are unique to a company that deals heavily with 3D data and machine learning. Someone who likes building internal tools and who thinks finding a simple solution to a hard problem is a high form of art. No matter how much you know now, you will always be learning more.

The Infrastructure team interacts with or owns everything past the application binary. The rest of engineering is our customer. Through automation, we strive to have the easiest path be the fastest and most secure path. We own, maintain, and advise on all cloud infrastructure such as our Kubernetes environment, databases, network, storage, and cache. All of engineering are our peers and we work with them to form consistent patterns for solutions to common architectural challenges around rich geospatial and machine learning workloads. We have a strong command over best practices for cloud architecture and CI/CD and use application development as a means to apply them.

You will contribute by:

• You will help us make boring solutions to interesting problems.
• You will work with the rest of engineering to make their lives easier, their changes faster and safer, their applications more stable and observable.
• You will collaborate with frontend, backend, computer vision, data, and machine learning engineers to bring their ideas to the world at scale.

One week this will be helping design cloud architecture, another week centralizing automation through our dev tooling, writing helm charts, optimizing docker files, provisioning terraform resources in GCP, or evaluating our security posture.

Your background includes:

• Strong software engineering practices: Preferably Go, Ruby, or Python
• Expertise with containerization (e.g. Docker) and Kubernetes
• Familiarity or a desire to learn Google Cloud Platform (GCP) or familiarity with Amazon Web Services (AWS)
• Experience with Terraform, Ansible, INCLUSIVE OR other tools like Chef
• A systems oriented mindset around observability, consistency, failure modes, and concrete implementations
• A desire to work collaboratively
• Comfort learning new technologies and practices

Benefits

• Compensation - Competitive salary and meaningful equity in a fast-growing company
• Healthcare - Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage for you and dependents
• Paid Time Off - Unlimited and flexible vacation policy
• Paid Family Leave- We support work/life balance and offer generous paid parental and new child bonding leave
