The Opportunity

At Flatfile, we're creating beautiful, human-centric experiences to remove the barriers between people and data. We're automating every repetitive and painstaking process involved in teaching machines what data is and where it should go.

The Infrastructure department at Flatfile handles ongoing construction and maintenance of our internal cloud infrastructure and deployment of our software into client's infrastructure (our On Premise product). Everything that Flatfile does with customers runs through infrastructure, whether ours or theirs.

You will own building and maintaining our infrastructure in a way that makes continuous deployment and management easy while also being built in a way that it can be easily extracted for on-premise customers.
