We are looking for a skilled DevOps Engineer to enable efficient and effective collaboration across development, operations, and quality assurance teams. In this role, you will design, build, and operate modern, scalable, and secure DevOps platforms and processes, with a strong focus on Kubernetes and Infrastructure as Code.

Project Description:

Our project, GroundOS, is not just another screen manager. It is a next-generation Universal Display System (UDS) built to power the future of global mobility. We are building an "Operating System for Reality" that orchestrates massive, data-driven signage networks across critical infrastructure, from major international airports to sprawling public transport systems. GroundOS moves beyond static displays; it uses a state-of-the-art digital twin to process and react to real-time operational data. To guarantee continuous operation, the platform features a resilient, offline-first edge architecture that ensures screens keep running smoothly even if the network fails. Join us to blend high-performance Rust edge computing with modern TypeScript cloud services and help us set a new global standard for how hundreds of millions of passengers experience their journey.
