THE OPPORTUNITY

Industrious is at a once in a lifetime inflection point, transitioning from being a late stage growth startup to an independent business unit of the world’s largest real estate company. This next phase is all about figuring out how to make the most of the platform we’re now a part of, including nurturing our #SoIndustrious team, bringing our expertise in workplace experience to millions of people around the world, building new products, and doing it all with sustainable economics.

At Industrious, we aren’t just building workspaces; we’re building the engine that powers the future of work. We believe that infrastructure shouldn't be a bottleneck—it should be an accelerant. We are looking for a Tech Lead, DevOps Engineer who views "infrastructure as code" as an art form and thrives on the challenge of making complex systems feel invisible to the developers using them.

As the Tech Lead, you will be the primary architect of our deployment ecosystem. You won’t just be "fixing servers"; you will be designing the foundation that enables vibe coding company-wide—an environment where ideas move from an employee's brain to production with zero friction and maximum confidence.

• Strategic Alignment: You’ll have a seat at the table with our Cyber-security team, ensuring our growth never comes at the expense of our safety.

BY THE END OF YOUR FIRST YEAR: A NEW ERA OF PRODUCTIVITY

• The Productivity Multiplier: You will have successfully enabled "vibe coding" across all departments, leading to a significant increase in global company productivity.
• Predictive Stability: Our monitoring is no longer reactive. We can now anticipate most potential issues before they impact a single user.
• The Enhanced Developer: Our engineering team is now equipped with a world-class DX ecosystem that has boosted their individual productivity significantly, allowing them to spend more time innovating and less time "setting up testing environment."
