Senior DevOps Engineer

Who we are

Smarty is a 10+ year company that is self-funded, profitable, growing, and crazy fun! But don’t take our word for it: we were recognized by the Salt Lake Tribune as one of Utah’s Top Workplaces for 2022 & 2023. Come grow with us!

We think we are pretty great-but don't just take it from us. Since our founding in 2011, Smarty has become a recognized industry leader in location intelligence. Don't really know what that is? That's okay. The candid answer is, we provide enterprise-grade SaaS solutions for address validation, geocoding, and data enrichment around the world. If that went right over your head, that's okay too. This is probably still the best job you will ever apply for-we are pretty certain of it.

Who we are looking for

Lucky for you, we have an immediate opening for an experienced Senior DevOps Engineer. Do you remember how MacGyver was able to handle the most complex challenges like saving a derailed train or opening that plastic packaging for headphones without using dynamite? And how he did it all with a ball-point pen, paperclips, and a sock? That’s what we need, but for digital challenges that come with managing and leveraging a world-class infrastructure supporting billions of daily requests. So if you’re a digital MacGyver, please keep reading!
