At Retool, we're changing the way software is built. We've developed the fastest way to build internal tools, saving companies time, resources, and engineering bandwidth. Whether it's refunding orders, underwriting loans, managing marketplaces, rolling out new features, analyzing transactions, or providing customer support, Retool makes it dramatically faster and easier to build internal tools that teams need.

As an early member of the infrastructure team, you will build and automate foundational systems for reliability, security, performance, developer velocity, and scale. You will work cross-functionally, supporting the engineering, product, design, customer success, support, and sales functions.

• Work with the team to set and prioritize our roadmap to maximize customer impact
• Define and automate developer process/workflow
• Support our systems in production
• Develop new data solutions
• Build monitoring and observability for production systems

The skillset you'll bring:

• 7+ years of relevant experience
• Track record of delivering engineering projects and process improvements
• Experience scaling cloud infrastructure
• Passion for building and productionizing developer productivity tools, frameworks, and other aspects of platform engineering
• Experience with inner workings of Linux, containers (Docker, containerd), and container orchestration technologies (e.g. docker-compose, Kubernetes)
• A love of building productive, collaborative relationships, both within an engineering org and across the broader company
• You're excited by the ambiguity and high-ownership culture of early-stage startups
• You are pragmatic, solution-oriented, and scrappy
• You enjoy working collaboratively with a broad range of job functions and roles
• Experience with our tech stack: Node, Postgres, Docker, Kubernetes
• Experience scaling relational databases (Postgres preferred)
• Good knowledge of cloud, on-prem, traffic routing, service architecture in multi-region setup

Retool offers generous benefits to all employees. Join us in our mission to be a force multiplier for developers and technical builders, helping them move considerably faster in building software.
