Sr. DevOps Engineer
Hubble Network
Software Engineering
Seattle, WA, USA
Posted on Nov 7, 2024
Hubble Network was founded with the intention of delivering on the promise of what Internet-of-Things (IoT) was supposed to be. We're building a global Bluetooth network dedicated to machine-to-machine connectivity. We differentiate ourselves as the first modem-less and gateway-less, direct-to-satellite network from off-the-shelf BLE chips. Hubble is ideal for applications in logistics, AgTech, and maritime where economies of scale for volume consumer and enterprise asset tracking is a priority. Our goal is to be the first billion-endpoint-connected network in the world.
Hubble is an early-stage, venture-backed startup supported by some of the best investors in the world. In their previous lives, the founding team has been successful in raising $100s of millions in venture funding, developing the Amazon Sidewalk network, launching billions of dollars of space assets, and leading their teams to successful exits, both through acquisition and IPO. We are now looking to bring on talented team members who are the best at what they do to help us make Hubble a reality for the world.
As the senior DevOps engineer, you will be responsible for leading the development of our cloud and on-prem infrastructure. You will own
pipelines delivering quality updates and operational tasking windows to our growing fleet of satellites; the pipelines process out-of-this-world
data and enable the engineering team to develop solutions for communication with billions of ground-end devices. You will be a key leader
to our expanding team.
This is an on-site, full-time position.
AN IDEAL CANDIDATE HAS
Hubble is required by the U.S. Government to comply with various space technology export regulations including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). All applicants must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident ("green card holder") as defined by ITAR (22 CFR
