Who is SpiderOak?

We want to change the world, and we’ve already done it once. SpiderOak has been building encrypted software since before the first iPhone was released.

SpiderOak is committed to building secure and reliable software that protects our customers’ data. Our approach is fundamentally different from most mainstream security companies. Instead of adding layers of security on top of an insecure system, we build software that is inherently secure.

SpiderOak builds need-to-know technology that supports customers working in hostile environments. Traditional systems trust IT infrastructure to maintain the whole security system, even though the news is rife with evidence that this model does not work. Our software combines end to end encryption with a distributed ledger (aka Blockchain) technology to offer best-in-class security with no backdoors.

Who is Our Operations Team?

Help SpiderOak's Technical Operations team build out the infrastructure we use to deploy our CrossClave, and Backup products; share your operational expertise with our development teams; and work from anywhere as part of our remote-friendly team!

What We Need

We're looking for a full-time operations engineer with experience building microservice architectures using Kubernetes. As part of the Technical Operations team, your expertise in networking, deployment, monitoring, and operational best-practices will help our product and business teams succeed. The Technical Operations team's mission is to provide the physical, organizational, computing, and networking infrastructure that the rest of the company relies on every day.

Candidate must be located in the greater Kansas City, KS area to work on on-site servers when required (not a regular occurrence).

• Develop tools and services to help the company utilize our infrastructure easily.
• Participate in 24/7 on-call rotation (approx. 1 week per month.)
