DevOps Engineer - TitanFile Inc.

DevOps Engineer

About us

TitanFile's mission is to democratize secure client communication. This is a challenge worthy of pursuit! The costs and risks associated with complex projects like litigation, processing insurance claims, and conducting regulatory investigations are skyrocketing as the amount of data increases. TitanFile is transforming these processes so they can be done in minutes, not days, by anyone, anywhere. As a result, our customers, who range from financial institutions to law firms and from government agencies to higher education, can service their clients faster with the privacy and security that they expect.

What we need:

TitanFile is looking for a DevOps Engineer who is personable, persistent, and confident. A person who is passionate about learning new technologies and improving the skills they already have. A person who wants their work to stand for something. A person able to juggle multiple priorities and work with minimal supervision.

This person will report to our Lead Architect and Infrastructure Manager and will be central to how we build, deploy, and operate our platform. The role is an even split between building and running: automating infrastructure with Terraform, improving our GitLab CI pipelines, and strengthening observability, while also keeping a security-sensitive production environment fast, available, and recoverable.

Our customers hold us to a high bar. TitanFile is SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001 certified, and we are pursuing FedRAMP certification to serve the U.S. federal market. The right DevOps engineer will appreciate the importance of security, availability, usability, and performance in software systems, and will not be afraid to use cutting-edge technology to solve mission-critical enterprise problems. We expect our engineers to work fluently with AI tooling and to apply the same engineering judgment to what it produces as they would to their own work.

TitanFile offers an incredible opportunity for a DevOps Engineer to learn and grow, while being part of an awesome growing team in Toronto.

• Support our security team with infrastructure work tied to FedRAMP, SOC 2, and ISO 27001, including control implementation and evidence automation
• Automate repetitive operational work, and document what you build so the whole team can run it
• Use AI tooling to work faster across infrastructure code, scripting, and incident analysis, while holding a high bar for what gets merged and deployed
