About SuperPlane

SuperPlane is an AI-native DevOps control plane. Our mission is to build the platform teams use to ship and manage software in the AI era.

Agents are helping us write an order of magnitude more code, while systems have become too complex for human-driven ops alone. We're rethinking DevOps from first principles for the AI era: a single control layer where engineers and agents safely collaborate.

We move fast. We aim high. If that sounds like the kind of problem you want to work on, we’d love to talk.

About the Role

At SuperPlane, you’ll shape the future of DevOps, creating features that bring intelligence, automation, and simplicity to complex infrastructure workflows. Collaborating with Product, AI, and Design, you’ll build systems that developers love to rely on for every release and deployment.

This is a remote position open to candidates based in Europe and Latin America.

What You’ll Do

• Develop core features of SuperPlane from conception to deployment.

• Develop APIs, integrations, and scalable services for multi-cloud environments.

• Collaborate with the AI and Product teams to implement intelligent automation features.

• Review peers’ work and contribute to engineering best practices.

• Continuously improve performance, security, and developer experience.

Requirements

• You are a full-stack developer

• You have deep knowledge of Go, Typescript, and/or React. We will also accept applicants who have deep knowledge of comparable technologies, but we will expect you to move fast and master React and Go as you join the team.

• You are proficient with AI-assisted development (e.g., Claude Code)

• Solid understanding of cloud-native technologies (Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD).

• You have expertise in designing secure, high-performance APIs and distributed systems.

• You push systems and yourself to world-class standards.

• Communicate clearly and collaborate well across teams.

Why You’ll Love Working at SuperPlane

• Work on an open-source platform shaping the future of DevOps worldwide.

• See your work used and relied on by engineers across the globe.

• Competitive compensation & meaningful equity in a high-growth startup.

• Fully remote and flexible environment that lets you focus and create.

This is a long term full-time 1099 contract role (40 hours/week) for someone who enjoys improving code quality and mentoring through the review process.

What You'll Do: Your primary focus is reviewing pull requests and ensuring the development team follows best practices and coding standards. You'll work in GitHub, approving PRs and providing constructive feedback to help developers write cleaner, more maintainable code. This isn't test automation or UAT - it's production code review. You'll collaborate with the team to refine and improve standards over time. There's also opportunity to contribute code alongside review work, giving you variety beyond pure review.

The Tech Stack:

• Python (Django, FastAPI, SQLAlchemy)
• GitHub and GitHub Actions
• REST/SOAP APIs, Kafka
• Network-focused applications

The Environment: The team is building out formal QA processes as they scale. Management is hands-off and trusts developers to own their domain. Your coworkers are collaborative, skilled, and appreciate someone who helps them level up.

What We're Looking For:

• Strong Python expertise with an eye for clean code
• Experience reviewing code and providing constructive feedback
• Understanding of software development best practices
• Networking or telecom background helpful but not required
• Good communication skills - you're teaching, not just gatekeeping

Compensation: Rate is negotiable based on experience. Submit your proposed rate with your application.

To Apply: Send your resume to jobs@lincolnfreedomgroup.com. Please include a cover letter explaining why you're interested in this specific role and what qualities would make you a strong fit.

About Breezy HR

Breezy HR is a remote-first, hiring platform built for small and mid-sized businesses. Thousands of teams trust us to streamline recruiting from first touch to signed offer, and we’re passionate about delivering a fast, delightful experience for every candidate and every hiring manager.

Why we’re hiring

We need a senior hands-on owner to stabilize, secure, and evolve our cloud platform. You’ll be a primary decision-maker for AWS architecture, reliability, CI/CD, observability, and cost posture, partnering closely with the directors, developers, product, and customer success teams.

What you’ll own (hands-on + strategic)

• AWS architecture & operations: Own production infrastructure end-to-end (networking, compute, storage, IAM, routing, scaling, backups, DR).
• IaC & environments: Standardize and evolve Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform or AWS CDK); codify dev/stage/prod with repeatable patterns and least-privilege IAM.
• CI/CD: Keep deployments fast and safe (build, test, deploy, rollback); drive progressive delivery where it makes sense.
• Observability & incident response: Ensure logs/metrics/traces + actionable dashboards; lead incident command and postmortems.
• Security & compliance: Own cloud security baselines and support SOC 2 / ISO 27001 / GDPR needs.
• Cost & performance: Right-size infra, track spend, and implement guardrails to prevent regressions.
• Technical leadership: Document the platform, unblock developers, mentor peers, and cultivate cross-training so nothing is a single point of failure.
• On-call: Alternate with others on the infra on-call rotation and train others as needed.

Our stack

• Backend: Node.js microservices
• Data: MongoDB (self-hosted) and Redis
• Hosting/Orchestration: AWS
• IaC: Terraform and/or AWS CDK
• Tooling: Git-based CI/CD; common observability suites

What you’ve done

• 7+ years building and running production systems on AWS (VPC, EC2, ELB/ALB, S3, CloudFront, Route53, RDS/ElastiCache, IAM, CloudWatch, SNS/SQS, etc.).
• 5+ years Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, CDK) and environment automation.
• Proven CI/CD ownership for multi-service SaaS, including safe rollbacks and release hygiene.
• Solid security fundamentals (least-privilege IAM, network segmentation, secrets, TLS) and familiarity with SOC 2 / ISO 27001 / GDPR expectations.
• Observability end-to-end (logs/metrics/traces), incident leadership, and postmortem practice.
• Proficient coding in JavaScript/Node.js (enough to contribute to internal tools, CLIs, or platform services).
• Clear, pragmatic communicator who documents decisions and trade-offs.

Nice-to-haves

• Background with MongoDB, Redis, Elasticsearch
• Prior team leadership

How we work

• Senior, low-ego, remote-first team. We value fast feedback loops, little yellow/red tape, ability to iterate at startup-like pace

Benefits

• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) with company match
• PTO: 15 days in year 1, 21 days in year 2
• MacBook Pro + the gear you need
