Who We Are...

About Us

SmartVault is a cloud-based document management and file-sharing solution for small-to-medium-sized businesses, professional accountants, and bookkeepers. In 2017, SmartVault became part of the GetBusy Group, which is AIM-listed and currently trading on the London Stock Exchange. SmartVault continues to operate as a wholly owned subsidiary in the US, but we are now part of a much larger global team with expanded products serving the US, UK, and Australia / New Zealand markets.

The Role

We are looking for a motivated and hands-on DevOps Engineer with 3-5 years of experience to join our agile, cross-functional product team. You will be responsible for designing, implementing, and optimizing highly secure, scalable, and reliable cloud platform solutions on AWS.

This role requires strong analytical and troubleshooting skills, excellent communication, and a proactive approach to problem-solving. While an infrastructure background is beneficial, you should also be comfortable writing scripts and basic software code to enhance and streamline operations.

The SmartVault product team is dynamic and fast-paced, keeping up to date with the latest technologies, and using agile and self-organising principles to help deliver quality products and services. The team wholeheartedly embraces the DevOps culture, continuously striving to add value to products and customers through automation, collaboration, and a proactive monitoring and feedback loop with product teams.

And that’s only just the start! It’s a great cross-functional team that works to produce great technical solutions in a great way.

We offer you the opportunity to :

• be part of a talented, collaborative and motivated team
• learn from and be inspired by skilled colleagues
• teach and inspire others
• work across the entire product life cycle
• develop your skill set and research / adopt the latest design patterns, methodologies, principles and technologies
