DevOps / Backend Engineer

About the role

Fully remote (EST overlap required). Reports to our Director of Software Engineering. High-trust role — this person will touch production infrastructure, secrets, and sensitive data, so we need someone thorough, security‑minded, and trustworthy. We're bullish on AI; ideal candidates are excited to use AI tools to move fast, but grounded enough to keep humans in the loop on anything security‑ or trust‑sensitive. Diamond Solutions is a tech‑forward company focused on easing the process for property owners to maintain their parking lots. The tech team is a small, close‑knit unit punching above our weight class. No egos here – we’re a collaborative group focused on doing great work without the drama. We work hard, and we build cool things that go straight into the hands of our users.
