SpotHero | Toronto, CA | Kubernetes, AWS | Full-time | Senior Systems Engineer

I lead our Developer Tools team (basically ops with a focus on supporting Engineering as a whole). We run basically everything in Kubernetes on AWS. We're a team of 3 now, growing towards 6 over the next few years. Some of our major upcoming projects are:

* Multi-region deployments + DR prep (can we run our search endpoints active-active?) * Scaling engineering onboarding, support and consulting (we're treated as experts in systems and help devs understand the layers below their apps). * Extracting services from our monolith and building automation to keep them organized and up-to-date.

We connect the dots with cutting-edge technology, delivering value to both sides of this exciting, evolving marketplace.

I'm actually in the middle of building something really similar, but targeted at manufacturing/distribution companies (i.e. they have an ERP/inventory system, how does that data get onto the eCommerce website?)

Would you be interested in talking with me about how you're building your system? Email in my profile.

Good Luck!!


Gotcha. Good to know. Thanks!
