Collage.com’s mission is to make custom products easy for everyone. We strive to do this by providing superior software and excellent customer service. We sell an expanding variety of photo and home products, including photo blankets, photo books, canvases, pillows, and more. Our company has been featured on the TODAY Show, The View, and Good Morning America many times. We are a profitable, 100% employee-owned company that has rapidly grown to 50 employees and $22M annual revenue over the past five years.
As a remote company, our development team is set up to empower individuals. The less time developers spend dealing with cumbersome processes and inefficient systems, the more time they have to solve problems and make an impact. We believe in staying at the forefront of best practices so that we can focus on work that matters. We use continuous deployment (anything that is merged following a pull request goes straight to production) and are fully distributed with all of our systems in the cloud. We invest heavily in developing software well and using the best technology to delight our customers.
We are seeking an ambitious and nice dev ops leader who shares our passion for building a great software company. As a 100% remote organization (read about our remote workplace at remote.co), this is a unique opportunity to define how our software development organization should run without having an office. As the leader of DevOps at Collage.com, you will play a pivotal role in improving the experience and productivity of your team members every day. You will be the key evangelist of a vision to continuously strengthen our underlying foundation of infrastructure and automation to deliver performance and reliability while making software easy to develop. Our goal is to continue our fast pace of growth and create the best work environment for engineers to be happy, productive, and grow professionally.
