About Hubstaff

At Hubstaff, our mission is to empower people to have their most productive workday. We do this by providing the industry-leading workforce analytics and time tracking platform for remote and distributed teams.

We've been fully remote for over a decade—long before it became a trend—and we continue to believe that remote work represents the most significant shift in the modern workplace since the advent of the PC. Our platform helps more than 200,000 global users track time, gain visibility into work, manage schedules, and automate payments with transparency and accountability at its core.

We're a product-led company with a winning culture, strong momentum, and a long-term vision: to become an essential part of every remote company's tech stack. And we're just getting started.

 
 
The Role

We're hiring a Staff DevOps Engineer to help shape the future of Hubstaff's cloud platform.

This is a high-impact, fully remote role for an experienced infrastructure engineer who enjoys building secure, scalable, and highly automated systems. You'll partner with our CTO, architects, and engineering teams to improve reliability, security, developer experience, and platform scalability across our global SaaS platform.

This isn't a traditional operations role. We're looking for someone who thrives on solving complex infrastructure challenges, automating everything possible, and building the internal platform that enables engineering teams to move faster.

If you enjoy building secure, scalable cloud platforms, automating infrastructure, and solving complex engineering challenges, we'd love to meet you.

 
 
What You'll Do
  • Design and operate scalable cloud infrastructure across AWS and GCP.

  • Build and improve Kubernetes, Linux, and cloud networking environments.

  • Standardize infrastructure using Terraform, Terragrunt, Helm, and GitOps practices.

  • Improve CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions and ArgoCD.

  • Build monitoring, logging, and alerting using Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, CloudWatch, and Better Stack.

  • Strengthen security, disaster recovery, and platform resilience.

  • Drive platform strategy while remaining hands-on with implementation.

  • Improve developer productivity through automation and self-service infrastructure.

 
 
What Makes You Successful
  • You've built and operated production cloud infrastructure at scale using AWS (GCP experience is a plus).

  • You're an expert in Terraform, Kubernetes (EKS), Docker, Helm, and modern GitOps practices.

  • You've built reliable CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, or similar tools.

  • You have experience supporting production PostgreSQL, Redis, and distributed systems.

  • You've implemented monitoring and observability using Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, CloudWatch, or similar platforms.

  • You understand networking, IAM, encryption, disaster recovery, and cloud security best practices.

  • You're comfortable supporting applications built with Ruby on Rails, Go, Rust, or Node.js.

  • You enjoy solving complex infrastructure problems through automation and ownership.

 
 
You'll Stand Out If You Have
  • Helped scale infrastructure for a high-growth SaaS product.

  • Built or evolved a platform engineering, SRE, or DevOps function.

  • Led cloud modernization or infrastructure transformation initiatives.

  • Supported applications built with Ruby on Rails, Go, Rust, or Node.js.

  • Worked with GitOps, service mesh technologies, or serverless platforms.

  • Built infrastructure for data platforms or ETL workloads.

  • Thrived in a fully remote, async-first engineering culture.

 
 
Why You'll Love Working Here
  • Work alongside experienced engineering leaders on a platform used by hundreds of thousands of people worldwide.

  • Own projects from architecture through implementation.

  • Join a highly autonomous, remote-first engineering culture built on trust and ownership.

  • Work with modern cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, Infrastructure as Code, and observability tooling at scale.

  • Make a direct impact on platform reliability, developer productivity, and customer experience.
