Senior Software Engineer, Devops

ABOUT SLATE At Slate, we’re building safe, reliable vehicles that people can afford, personalize and love—and doing it here in the USA as part of our commitment to reindustrialization.

Who we are looking for Slate is looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to build and operate the infrastructure that our digital, data, manufacturing and enterprise teams depend on.

You'll work across a multi-account AWS organization and help stand up a hybrid Kubernetes platform that spans Amazon EKS and self-managed clusters in our own facilities.

You'll be a day-to-day partner to the teams we support: taking their requests, turning them into well-built infrastructure, and helping them ship and debug in production. You will report to the leader of the DevOps team and take part in the team's on-call rotation. The Builder: You like shipping infrastructure that works and keeps working.

You write it as code, you test it, and you leave it better documented than you found it. The Troubleshooter: When something breaks, you follow the evidence from the load balancer to the pod to the log line, and you fix the cause, not just the symptom. The Partner: You treat the teams you support as customers.
