Intelligence & Automation 

The Intelligence & Automation team’s mission is to help DevRev grow and scale efficiently by designing the best possible “machinery” of the company as early as possible. In many ways, this team is in service of DevRev teams and employees who are delivering the best products and services for our customers - operations, product, engineering, sales, and support.

Great design and delivery makes the difference between a mediocre “this is how it has always been done” and a more elegant, scalable, and flexible solution that evolves with DevRev. Community-building, engineering efficiency, hiring, employee success, knowledge management, real estate, travel, performance management - you name it - can all benefit if we get it right during these early days. It can’t be an after-thought, as it often is in start-ups.

The day-to-day specifics of the work of members of our team vary, but typically involve a hybrid of software engineering, operational, strategic, analytical, and growth marketing. We dive deep into DevRev's needs, people, processes, data, and systems, identifying where great system designs (or redesigns) can deliver 100x improvements through first-principles thinking, as well as where small operational efficiencies, automations, and tools can buy us “inches.” We are expected to work cross-functionally and collaboratively across DevRev to deliver measurable results.

Job Description

The Members of the Intelligence & Automation team will have the opportunity to work on the highest-priority, company-building initiatives associated with rapidly scaling a new global technology start-up.

The grit to drive complex endeavours forward, the wisdom and decisiveness to acknowledge losses and failures, and the foresight to see all leaf nodes of the possibilities from the high-level strategy to the low-level implementation are all required.

Ideal Candidate Qualifications:

• BS/BA (or MS/MA) in Computer Science or related technical field, or equivalent practical software development and deployment experience
• Strong familiarity with cloud-based platforms, including AWS products, GCP products, and REST + GraphQL API frameworks
