Swift Navigation provides precise positioning solutions for automotive, autonomous vehicle, mobile and mass-market applications. What began as the GNSS industry’s first low-cost, high-accuracy, real-time kinematic (RTK) receiver has evolved into a Swift Navigation ecosystem of positioning solutions for autonomous applications. From the nationwide GNSS corrections delivered from the cloud by the Skylark™ precise positioning service, the hardware-independent, integrated software solution that is the Starling® positioning engine to the centimeter-level accurate Piksi® Multi and ruggedized Duro® and Duro Inertial RTK receivers, Swift Navigation is enabling a future of autonomous vehicles to navigate and understand the world.

You will be part of the team that owns the provisioning, scalability, availability, and maintenance of our multi-cluster cloud platform. You will participate in operating infrastructure-as-code, integration/deployment automation wherever possible, and maintain production-critical services across many Kubernetes clusters.

We value a strong sense of ownership, service, and integrity demonstrated through clear communication. We are looking for creative problem solvers and people who can develop and operate great services.

We love to meet great people, so even if you don't tick every single box, apply anyway!

Duties/Responsibilities

• You will participate in a globally distributed small team of cloud engineers that develops and operates the platform for our cloud corrections service
• You will develop services that manage our global network of reference stations
• You will champion automation, infrastructure-as-code, security, DevOps practices, and CI/CD to Swift’s development teams

Desired Skills/Experience

3 or more years of experience with managing and building services on cloud infrastructure:

• Experience with monitoring, logging, and metrics infrastructure
• Experience with container-based infrastructure and orchestration
• Experience with automated configuration and infrastructure-as-code
• Programming experience
• A solid understanding of distributed systems (pitfalls, scaling issues, residency, integrity) to include algorithms, data structures, data stores, and the use of database systems in these environments
• Experience creating and operating scalable and highly-available production services

We also value skills in one or more of the following areas:

• Have launched a cloud service from scratch
• Success in implementing and promoting continuous integration and deployment
• Creating and integrating services with REST and RPC interfaces
• Creating build and deployment pipelines
• Experience with security protocols and how to architect secure cloud infrastructure

Key Technologies

We don’t expect you to know all these technologies, and we’re hoping for you to push us forward to better technologies where useful:

• AWS, Docker, Kubernetes
• Serverless infrastructure using AWS Lambda, DynamoDB, Cognito
• Build/CI/CD: Jenkins/JenkinsX, Artifactory, Deployment tools such as Spinnaker or ArgoCD
• Prometheus/Grafana for metrics and monitoring
• Programming with Python, Go, C++, Rust (you can also find Groovy, and Haskell)
• Terraform, Packer, and Python for automating infrastructure

we are unable to do conduct any visa transfers at this time.
