We're on a mission to empower builders.
Massive reach: Our docs platform serves 100 million+ developers every year and powers documentation for 10,000+ companies, including Anthropic, Cursor, PayPal, Coinbase, X, and over 20% of the last YC batch.
Small team, huge impact: We’re only 32 people today, backed by $22 million in funding, each new hire shapes the company’s trajectory.
Culture of slope over y-intercept: We value learning velocity, grit, and unapologetically unique personalities.
We grew in value faster than headcount and we’re looking to align the two quickly.
What you'll work on hereWe're at an inflection point: serving 100M+ developers annually while operating on infrastructure managed by just one expert. As we rapidly scale, we need a second devops engineer to help us build reliable, scalable infrastructure we control.
Monitoring and scaling our AWS infrastructure (EKS and ECS) to support our rapidly growing user base
Migrating services from third-party vendors to our own AWS/EKS infrastructure to gain control and agency over our platform
Building observability and alerting systems to ensure 99.9%+ uptime for our documentation platform
Improving deployment pipelines and CI/CD processes to support our fast-moving engineering team
Collaborating with backend engineers to architect and implement scalable, reliable infrastructure solutions
Working alongside our current devops expert to establish best practices and expand our infrastructure capabilities
What you bring to the table
You have strong experience with AWS services, particularly EKS (Kubernetes) and ECS
You know how to build reliable, observable systems at scale
You have experience with infrastructure as code (Terraform, CloudFormation, or similar)
You're comfortable with monitoring and observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, or similar)
You know how to go from 0-to-1 and aren't afraid to own complex migrations
You have strong communication skills and can translate technical decisions to the broader team
You thrive in a collaborative team setting
Why you should join our engineering team
Engineers at Mintlify appreciate a high degree of ownership, are passionate about reliability and performance, and come to work ready to contribute to a small-but-mighty team.
You'll have plenty of heads down builder time. We believe in the power of strong teams to drive change - and have created an environment where the best ideas win and we can acknowledge when we're wrong.
We're all about finding the intersection between what excites you and business priorities. You'll jump into new territory and learn something new. You'll own projects and features. You'll ship.
