RevenueCat removes the headaches of building and scaling in‑app subscriptions. Since graduating from YC’s S18 batch we’ve grown into the default monetization platform for mobile: we’re in >40% of newly shipped subscription apps, we process $12B+ in annual purchase volume, and we help everyone from a solo dev in Brazil to the OpenAI mobile team understand and grow their revenue.
We’re a remote‑first crew of 150+, spread across 25+ countries, and guided by values we actually practice: Customer Obsession, Always Be Shipping, Own It, and Balance. If you want your work to touch hundreds of millions of end‑users (and help the developers behind them get paid), you’ll fit right in.
The role:
We are looking for a Senior, proactive DevOps / DevEx Engineer to join our engineering team and help building and scaling the internal development platform. You would be building the tools, services and automation that empower the rest of our engineering team to ship safely and fast.
RevenueCat invests heavily in tooling. We already have custom services for CI/CD, automated one-push-per-commit releases with automatic canaries, Feature Flags, DB query approval workflows, VPN access workflows. We are using Pulumi and python for IaC to describe k8s services and associated infrastructure in a single place. We want to provide autonomy, build a self-serve culture that allows teams to move fast but ensures safety and best practices.
The advent of IA and agentic development is going to change a lot of things, and you will help shape this future fostering adoption while ensuring our security and architectural standards remain sane.
Your job is to take all this to the next level.
About you:
•
You are a builder: You don't just use tools; you build them. You have 5+ years of experience in SRE, DevOps, DevEx or Platform Engineering with a heavy emphasis on software development.
•
You are proactive: You see what is needed, you take action and own problems to turn them into solutions.
•
You love building frameworks, abstractions and automation: You see that the best way to ensure best practices are follow is to make something so easy and joyfull to use that nobody wants to use anything else.
•
You are AI-curious: You understand how LLMs and AI coding tools are changing engineering and want to help a world-class team leverage them effectively.
•
You move fast, test and iterate quickly.
Preferred Experience:
•
Experience with AWS cloud, k8s, docker, IaC, Github
•
Solid knowledge of Python
In the first month, you'll:
•
Meet your team!
•
Get up to speed on our unique infrastructure-as-code patterns.
•
Familiarize yourself with our existing internal tools for releases, canaries, and access control.
•
Ship your first project—improving an existing tool or automation.
Within the first 3 months, you'll:
•
Be able to scope and work on tasks self-sufficiently.
•
Understand most of our internals tools and feel confident making changes to them.
•
Start on-call training.
•
Participate in code reviews, design reviews, brainstorms.
Within the first 6 months, you'll:
•
Design and ship major initiatives and have a positive impact in the engineering team.
•
Collaborate closely with other engineers, creating ties, understanding their pain points and starting to become more involve in the roadmap and prioritization of new initiatives.
Within the first 12 months, you'll:
•
Be the go-to expert for our internal platforms, services and infrastructure abstractions.
•
Have your own initiatives for improving DevOps and DevEx.
•
Lead AI tool adoption across the engineering org, following well-established patterns for safety and simplicity.
What we offer:
•
Competitive equity in a fast-growing, Series C startup backed by top-tier investors, including Y Combinator
•
10-year window to exercise vested equity options
•
Fully remote and flexible work environment
•
4-5 weeks of suggested time off annually for mental, physical, and emotional recharge
•
$2,000 USD for workspace setup and $1,000 USD annual stipend for continuous learning
