Paylocity is an equal opportunity employer.
Don't just land a job. Launch your future.
Our all-in-one software platform gives HR pros a way to easily manage daily tasks in payroll, benefits, talent, and workforce management.
But what makes us different is that our technology is backed by a culture that cares. We care about our team members, clients, and partners - because people matter most. And people have always been at the heart of our business.
Since our founding in 1997, this is the thing that's stayed the same, from our employees to the millions of users nationwide that access our platform. We pride ourselves on partnering with our clients to build the workplace they and their employees crave.
Let's go forward together.
Position Overview:
As a DevOps Engineer, you will support, develop and maintain tools and processes surrounding our Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) cloud-based Payroll and HR products across multiple development, staging and production environments, and provide support to development teams producing our software products.
You will assist product development teams to provision, deploy, configure, and monitor the software they create, and partner with other DevOps Engineers to develop and improve tools and processes that empower teams to work faster and easier, on their own. You will collaborate with members of many teams (particularly software development and security) to implement new applications, features, and environments; to upgrade existing systems; to troubleshoot and resolve issues; and to implement security measures to keep software development, delivery, and execution fast, safe, and working at top performance.
(Note: Different teams put more emphasis on certain goals and types of work, and by extension the toolsets that support them. For example: Delivery Platforms focuses on CI/CD and software artifacts. Environments focuses on building out and configuring large groups of servers into environments. The SRO team focuses on application telemetry, reliability, and fast recovery from critical incidents. The Dev Support team combines all the above to ensure development teams are successfully building, deploying, operating, and monitoring their software.)
