Senior DevOps Engineer

About the role

ABOUT POINT ONE NAVIGATION

Point One Navigation is on a mission to bridge the digital and physical worlds through precision location. Our RTK Corrections Network and Positioning Engine deliver centimeter-level accuracy and high-confidence positioning for vehicles, robots, drones, and devices across industries. We’re API-first, developer-focused, and pushing the boundaries of autonomy and automation.

ROLE OUTCOME

Senior DevOps Engineers own the infrastructure, automation, and deployment systems that keep Point One’s services running reliably at scale - from the cloud and on-premise environments to the CI/CD pipelines and observability stack that the entire engineering team depends on.

This is an ownership-first role: you will build and operate the infrastructure that serves real-time corrections to hundreds of thousands of devices in the field, spanning cloud and bare-metal environments, with the availability and repeatability that mission-critical positioning demands.

The infrastructure you own is the foundation every other team builds on. This role is responsible for keeping it automated, observable, secure, and scalable: provisioning and managing environments as code, hardening deployment pipelines, and ensuring the network stays healthy as new regions, reference stations, and customers come online.

SUCCESS IN THIS ROLE MEANS:

- Infrastructure is provisioned, configured, and managed as code - reproducible, version-controlled, and easy to evolve.

- Deployments are automated, safe, and fast, giving engineers confidence to ship frequently.

- Services run reliably across all hosted environments, even under load and partial failure.

- Observability is comprehensive - the team catches and resolves issues before customers feel them.

- Infrastructure decisions reflect a deep understanding of real-world constraints - reliability, scale, security, and cost.

- Engineers across the company are unblocked by self-service tooling, clear processes, and well-maintained environments.

IMMEDIATE AREAS OF FOCUS

Own Infrastructure as Code

- Provision and manage cloud, on-premise, and bare-metal infrastructure using Terraform and SaltStack configuration management.

- Build reproducible, version-controlled environments that are easy to stand up, evolve, and tear down.

- Break down high-level goals into concrete tasks, schedules, and milestones, and hold yourself accountable for delivering against them.

- Ensure infrastructure is well-structured, documented, and built to last as the product and customer base grow.

Automate Deployment and Delivery

- Design, build, and maintain CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins) that make shipping fast, safe, and repeatable.

- Containerize services with Docker and orchestrate them with Kubernetes across environments.

- Drive improvements in build, test, and release workflows so engineers can deliver with confidence.
