DevOps Engineer, Latin America

Gateless, Inc, is changing how mortgages are done; More speed. More efficiency. More accuracy. Less manual work. Less mistakes. Less cost. We’re building a world class decisioning engine to enable higher level human problem solving.

Gateless’ new tech platform is revolutionizing the mortgage market in two ways; First, our AI Mortgage converts post-closing paperwork from labor-intensive, error-prone workflows into efficient, automated processes using the power of artificial intelligence. Second, we’re building a tech platform to build smart conditions and smart tasks for borrowers. Both efforts ensure less time spent identifying mortgage requirements and help to improve underwriter efficiency.

You’ll join a growing team of diverse, passionate tech professionals who are on a mission to change the mortgage industry. In this new role, you’ll have a tremendous opportunity to help design, build and shape Gateless’ evolving corporate tech environment. We’re looking for a hands-on, experienced Senior Engineer who can think, design and execute across a broad set of tech disciplines and domains. If you’re interested in a predictable, mundane job with few surprises than this is not the role you are looking for.

We believe that open communication and effective teamwork can happen regardless of where you sit, and we’ll provide you with tools to make sure that happens.

About the Team

• We’re a small (but growing), scrappy bunch. We wear multiple hats and are constantly learning and improving.
• We’re remote, but not strangers. Good communication tools with regular usage and fun events like game nights keep us tight on a personal level.
• We collectively put team over self, lifting us all up to our greatest potential and beyond.

About the Role

• Engineer Gateless’ observability and DevOps tools, allowing easy access to metrics, logs and tracing.
• Design and implement infrastructure for resilience and compliance.
• Build, augment, and advise on CICD pipelines.
• Guide and assist engineers in their ability to diagnose problems in the application, and make tuning recommendations.
• Seek opportunities to continuously improve our architecture, operability, or capabilities.
• Continually strengthen our security posture.
• Be pragmatic in approaches to solving problems, realizing that sometimes “good enough” instead of “perfect” is OK. We would rather choose to iterate on “good enough”.
• You will work with Bash/Python/Java/Clojure and may also use other languages. You will work with a variety of tools, including but not limited to Terraform, Docker, and AWS native tools. We expect you to understand and use the best options for the job, making new recommendations where appropriate.
• You will manage systems primarily in the cloud.
• You will have strong understanding of Linux and tools in the Linux ecosystem.
• You are given the autonomy and the responsibility to build systems that are scaleable, reliable, secure, and observable. You are not explicitly told how to do this, so you must be willing to do it properly asking questions when needed.
