Space Inch · Brazil · Remote

Posted 7/31/2026 · last confirmed live 8/26/2026

We're looking for an experienced DevOps engineer to join Space Inch and take up work with the Core team of one of our long-standing clients, a leading investment and asset management firm in the US. You'll work alongside Space Inch teammates and the client's own engineers, who together make up a large part of five combined teams spanning infrastructure, SRE, and various application teams that build on top of them. The work sits at the intersection of DevOps, SRE, and platform engineering . Beyond keeping pipelines and clusters healthy, a big part of the job is treating the underlying infrastructure as a product: building the self-service tooling, reusable modules, and paved paths that let the application teams ship safely without reinventing deployment, observability, or security every time. Much of this work is greenfield, so there's real scope to shape how the platform looks for years to come rather than just maintaining what already exists. If you like owning infrastructure that other engineers depend on, and want a seat in the architectural conversations that decide where it goes, we'd love to hear from you. Our Mission, Vision, and Values At Space Inch, we prioritize alignment with our clients and team, ensuring a deep understanding of their needs. We are committed to delivering exceptional work while supporting the personal and professional growth of our team members.
