DevOps/ SRE Engineer (NYC, Austin or Remote US)

At Trunk Tools, we are tackling the massive $13 trillion+ construction industry. We’re an exceptional team of serial entrepreneurs, brought together by our shared mission: automating construction. Our founding team (SpaceX, Stanford, MIT, Carta, etc.) has successfully built and deployed software in construction for 140k+ users, millions of users beyond the construction space, and worked on +$2 billion of built-environment projects. We aren’t another out-of-touch tech startup, most of our team comes from construction.

We spent the last few years building the brain behind construction. Now we are deploying workflows/ agents, starting with Q&A document chatbot, to be ingrained in construction teams’ workflows, ultimately to automate construction. Given our immense traction with several Fortune 500 construction companies, we are doubling our team in order to deploy several more agents this year. You will have an opportunity to drive the transformation of a multi-trillion-dollar industry full of waste, risks and inefficiencies.

• Design, implement, and manage scalable, resilient, and secure infrastructure on AWS to support our growing applications and services.

• Automate infrastructure provisioning, configuration management, and application deployment processes using modern DevOps tools and practices.

• Collaborate with development teams to optimize CI/CD pipelines, ensuring seamless integration and delivery of code written in Node.js, TypeScript, and React.

• Monitor system performance, troubleshoot issues, and ensure high availability and reliability across our platform.

• Implement and maintain infrastructure as code (IaC) using tools like Terraform or CloudFormation to manage our AWS environment.

• Optimize resource utilization and manage cloud costs effectively while ensuring the scalability and performance of our applications.

• Contribute to the development and implementation of security best practices across our infrastructure and application lifecycle.
