nextmv (YC W20) is changing how companies automate and optimize their operations. We provide developers with the building blocks to create and test decision models, quickly. From logistics to healthcare to finance, every company can benefit from decision engineering using optimization and simulation. We’re looking for incredibly motivated people to help!
In a little over a year we have made substantial progress. We’re already landing enterprise clients. We’ve raised over $11 million from leading VC firms including Y Combinator, Firstmark Capital, Dynamo Ventures, and 2048 VC. And we’re just getting started.
We are looking for a DevOps Engineer II who is familiar with cloud platforms, container technology and loves automation. As the first dedicated hire supporting cloud infrastructure, internal tooling and automation you will have an impact on how we operate all our systems and services. In this role you will help build and maintain cloud infrastructure for our tools and products as well as assist with customer deployments ensuring we are following best practices and industry standards. You'll directly contribute to the success of our new hosted product by serving a hybrid DevOps / SRE function. This role will participate in our on-call rotation.
Requirements
Not required, but a plus:
These are some of your traits:
How we work
We are remote first
We value amazing work and a strong work-life balance. The majority of our collaboration happens on Slack and Zoom. We get together quarterly for team offsites so we can get some facetime (Covid Pending).
Salary Transparency
We believe that financial transparency creates trust, and that teams with a high level of trust are able to execute more effectively. We view salary transparency as a way to challenge a rampant problem in our industry: the wage gap. The base salary for any two employees in the same role is the same. Performance in that role is the differentiator, not upfront negotiation.
Benefits
This is a salaried role. In addition, nextmv offers:
This role (and all roles at nextmv) is remote. That being said, all employees should be able to travel to company retreats quarterly (when COVID settles down).
About nextmv
nextmv helps companies automate and optimize even the most complicated operational decisions. The nextmv platform allows any developer to quickly build, test, and deploy models that automate routing, assignment, matching and scheduling.
Our Values
Our values are aspirational and affect everything we do. At nextmv, we hope to instill core attributes and practices into our daily lives. We will work toward these goals together, and help each other along the way.
Community
We act as a group of skilled contributors with diverse backgrounds and a common mission.
We listen to each other to actively instill empathy in ourselves.
We introspect about our actions and their impacts.
Candor
We share information, from company strategy to small insights and feedback.
We collaboratively review our decisions and code using the same process.
We own our mistakes and admit our vulnerabilities.
Focus
We are ambitious and value achievement over status.
We are innately driven to innovate and improve the world.
We apply our time and skills effectively to challenging problems.
Balance
We separate our work from our self-worth to view and improve it objectively.
We don't overwork, and take regular time away to encourage creativity.
We take care of ourselves so we can give our best to our team.
Also, we love animals.
