Gather is a virtual collaboration platform designed to enhance communication and create a sense of community among distributed teams. The platform allows remote teams to interact as they would in a physical office, supporting serendipitous conversations and spontaneous interactions through features like virtual office spaces, shared whiteboards, and Slack integration. Gather aims to improve team productivity and engagement by reconstructing the informal and casual communication that typically happens in physical office spaces. Customers appreciate how Gather transforms remote work culture by reducing formal meetings and facilitating informal connections, which helps in building a strong, cohesive culture for remote teams.

📋 Description

• Architect and implement automation for ephemeral cloud development environments (e.g., cloud dev branches) that allow our AI agents to be tested in isolation. • Own and improve our continuous integration and delivery pipelines. You will ensure our tooling (and its dependency on Argo CD) is robust enough to handle deployments for both the core Gather application and our new AI services. • Streamline build tooling and local development setup. You will remove friction for engineers working across the stack—from the TypeScript codebase powering Gather to the backend services driving our AI knowledge retrieval systems. • Integrate closely with the Infrastructure team, providing expertise in developer tooling while participating in the shared infrastructure on-call rotation (currently 1 week every ~3 weeks. We go weeks at a time without getting paged).

🎯 Requirements

• Proven experience planning and executing projects end-to-end, ideally within a fast-paced medium-sized startup to small enterprise environment. • Deep knowledge of the Kubernetes ecosystem (Kubernetes, Kustomize, Helm). Deploying apps is just the beginning — you must be able to troubleshoot when they don’t. • Strong ownership of CI/CD systems and a commitment to modern DevOps practices. • Proficiency in TypeScript to contribute to and fix build/tooling systems that underpin our entire application stack. • Experience with, or the ability to ramp up quickly on, Argo CD for declarative GitOps deployments. • Comfortable operating as a solo owner of a functional domain (EngProd) while collaborating closely with a partner team (Infra). • A pragmatic, adaptable, and non-zealot mindset; you prioritize shipping and velocity over rigid adherence to any single methodology or technology. • US time zone alignment to effectively collaborate with the engineering team.

🏖️ Benefits

• Work remotely out of a state-of-the-art virtual office! • Competitive compensation, benefits, and meaningful equity • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance for employees and their dependents • 401k and matching program • Generous PTO policy and mental health days to recharge • Meal stipend to keep you nourished • Remote work, education, and health & wellness stipend • Support for family planning & gender-affirmation • The opportunity to join a passionate team in building something that actually makes peoples' lives better, every single day
