Founding DevOps Engineer (Video and Platform) – SpatialChat
Role Overview: As a Founding DevOps Engineer, you will be at the core of building and scaling SpatialChat's platform from the ground up. In this pivotal role, you'll need to embrace a startup mentality—taking ownership of the product, wearing multiple hats, and moving fast to build, iterate, and deploy features that will shape the future of virtual collaboration.
You will design and implement the systems that integrate live video, audio, and multiplayer interactions, all while working with a small, scrappy team in the early stages of the company. This role requires hands-on development across the full stack, rapid problem-solving, and a commitment to creating scalable, reliable, and high-performance systems that can grow as we do.

- Collaborating with engineering teams to ensure smooth and efficient deployment of production services.
- Implementing and maintaining deployment pipelines to support continuous delivery (CI/CD) processes.
- Troubleshooting and resolving issues related to infrastructure and application performance.
- Designing, implementing, and maintaining scalable cloud infrastructure to support production workloads.
- Collaborating with compliance teams to ensure that infrastructure and processes adhere to regulatory requirements

- Have experience installing, configuring, and monitoring Linux systems in physical data centers

- Experience with Cloud environments (AWS, GCP) and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) principles and tools (e.g. Terraform)
