We are Route
Buying stuff online can get messy once you hit that "order" button. Managing dozens carrier tracking links, dealing with lost or damaged packages, and resolving issues with customer support can feel like a wild goose chase. That's why we created the Route — to make the post-purchase experience for consumers like you, and the brands you love, as seamless as possible.
Route is on a mission to connect the world's commerce. Through our network of +5 million Route App users and 15,000 merchants, we're making it easier than ever for consumers to track, insure, and discover their favorite products in one place — which connects the world's coolest direct-to-consumer brands to happy, repeat customers.
Since Route launched in 2018, we've been on a journey to build innovative products that empower our customers, all while fostering a people-first, values-driven company culture. We're looking for talented people across the ecommerce space to join us on the next steps of this adventure.
Don't just take our word for it! Discover what life at Route has to offer.
The team
The Route Engineering team develops next-generation technologies that change how millions of consumers see, share, and discover the world's most innovative brands and products. Route Engineers have backgrounds in distributed systems design and development, large-scale data storage and processing systems, UI design, mobile, and much more — but what unites this talented team is a passion for the Route mission to connect the world's commerce through our suite of transformational products.
The opportunity
We have an amazing Engineering Department at Route! Lots of self-starters and high-performance teams with collaborative mindsets, ready to continue our journey to grow and accelerate with cutting-edge technologies. We've set forth on a mainly microservices mission on ECS Containers as an Cloud-born, AWS Shop, solely in Gitlab and gated by Terraform. In supporting our B2B and B2C business models we have an array of engineering teams with full-stack experience looking to continue to elevate our technology teams and platform to the 10x model with this team's help!
The SRE(Infra-Ops) team is leading the charge on maturing the automation and tooling for engineering teams to self-support areas of Observability, CICD, and Cloud Resource Management. Our clients are internal engineering teams, and we are here to help fill the void of infra, networking, CICD, and observability awareness to build the services and the GitOps operations for self-support in a secure and optimized manner.
What you'll do
As a member of the SRE team, you are a self-starter and creative problem-solver. You are passionate about staying up to date on the latest technologies and solutions in the world of Observability and Cloud. You appreciate automation as a path to creating time on the daily. Our SREs are passionate about observability (i.e. the grafana/prometheus stack) and appreciate the optimizations that set us forth on new challenges. The SRE team helps bridge the gap for CICD automation for scale, velocity, and security at the forefront. We are the go-to resources for the Infra, Cloud, and Terraform for our guided advice to heed engineers to reusability and best practices.
As an SRE you will have an opportunity to build tools and automation with code while designing processes to empower engineering teams to deliver software at scale. You get to champion operational excellence across the engineering organization
and empower engineering teams on subjects such as CI/CD, Cloud Infrastructure within AWS, application security monitoring and observability. You will be instrumental in reducing engineering overhead by spotting problems and areas for improvement
