Description For DevOps Engineer

Metalenz, a pioneering venture-backed startup revolutionizing meta-optics technology, is seeking a DevOps Engineer to join their innovative team in Boston. This role presents an exciting opportunity to work at the intersection of cutting-edge optical technology and software development.

The position involves managing and optimizing the entire CI/CD pipeline, including Jenkins builds, GitHub Actions workflows, and automated release processes. You'll be responsible for supporting a fast-moving software team by maintaining build infrastructure, managing cloud-based compilation systems, and ensuring smooth development operations.

What makes this role unique is its blend of traditional DevOps responsibilities with the opportunity to impact adjacent technical areas. You'll work with state-of-the-art metasurface technology that's already being implemented in millions of consumer devices. The company's technology, built on Harvard University research, simplifies and improves optical devices through innovative semiconductor manufacturing processes.

The ideal candidate will bring 1+ years of experience with cloud-based build systems, strong Python skills, and a deep understanding of modern CI/CD practices. While the core requirements focus on DevOps expertise, the role offers growth opportunities in software development, quality assurance, and IT.

Metalenz offers an attractive compensation package including competitive salary ($100K-$130K), equity options, comprehensive benefits, and a collaborative work environment in downtown Boston. The company's recent $30M Series B funding and existing partnerships with major venture firms demonstrate its strong market position and growth potential.

This role is perfect for a DevOps professional who wants to be part of a transformative technology company while building and maintaining the infrastructure that enables software teams to succeed. You'll have the opportunity to make a significant impact in a company that's literally changing how we see the world through their revolutionary optical technology.
