DevOps Engineer at Pie Insurance, Inc. (Denver, CO)

Job Description

Your Mission

Establish Pie as the preeminent commercial insurer by ensuring small business owners have a seamless shopping experience while using our platform.

How You’ll Do It

As a DevOps Engineer and key Engineering team member at Pie, you own production support.  Production support includes the deployment, monitoring and operations of our platform.  Your work will be absolutely critical to our collective ability to build, automate and streamline operations and processes across Pie.

There’s a good bit of fire-fighting in a highly dynamic startup environment, so you should enjoy rapid problem-solving and root cause analysis. Expect to build and maintain tools for deployment, monitoring and operations so you become more effective in your ability to troubleshoot and resolve issues across our dev, test and production environments.

Pie’s Engineering team works out of both Denver and DC, but don’t let the geographical divide fool you.  This incredibly collaborative team is in tight, constant communication as we design, deploy, operate and support our systems.
