Infrastructure Engineer, Platform

Canvas is at the forefront of revolutionizing the remodeling, architecture and interior design industry through cutting-edge AI and computer vision technology. With our LiDAR-enabled iPhone or iPad scans, we capture precise 3D representations of homes in minutes, providing interactive models with accurate-to-the-inch measurements. Our proprietary process then turns these scans into highly detailed, editable, as-built files in industry-standard formats. Our technology was featured in Apple's keynote when the iPhone's LiDAR sensor was introduced and now we model millions of square feet each month.

We’re an early-stage startup that is growing and ready to accelerate even further. As a global virtual-first company, our team members are distributed worldwide, with a concentration in the US and Europe.

We are looking for an experienced Infrastructure Engineer to help us scale, secure, and maintain the systems that power our business.

• You have experience writing infrastructure automation using tools such as Ansible and Terraform.
• You are proficient with Git and have experience working with GitLab CI/CD pipelines.
• You have a good understanding of container technologies and orchestration, including Docker and Kubernetes.
• You can write or maintain automation scripts and tooling in Python.

Any of these qualifications will make you stand out:

• Experience setting up Machine Learning operations.
• Experience working with Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, or similar observability stacks.
• Experience with relational databases such as PostgreSQL.
• Familiarity with managing production-grade Kubernetes clusters.
• A passion for clean documentation and systems architecture clarity.
