At PLACE, we’re building a category-defining company at the intersection of real estate, technology, business services, and the consumer. As a profitable, hypergrowth startup, on the path to an IPO, our standards are high, and our team is scrappy, and our commitment is to execute the best work of our lives.
This is YOUR CHANCE to shape the backbone of a company that’s scaling rapidly and innovating boldly. As our Senior Azure DevOps Engineer, you’ll partner with our Platform & Infrastructure Engineering leadership, founders, and executives to architect and govern our enterprise Azure cloud platform, drive CI/CD and infrastructure automation strategy, and set the technical standards that keep our systems secure, scalable, and reliable across every engineering team. If you thrive in complexity, entrepreneurial problem-solving, and believe in scaling through tech and AI, this is your PLACE. This is a hybrid role based in Bethesda, MD.
Who Develops You: VP Software Engineering and IT Operations
You are a hands-on cloud platform expert who thinks in systems, not just servers. You’ve spent years deep in Azure — App Services, AKS, Key Vault, API Management — and you know how to turn that expertise into infrastructure-as-code that other engineers can trust and build on. You’re as comfortable designing a zero-downtime deployment strategy as you are leading a root-cause analysis after a production incident. Security and cost aren’t afterthoughts for you; they’re built into every architecture decision you make. You mentor generously, communicate clearly with product and engineering leadership, and you’ve got the scars — and the certifications — to prove you’ve done this at scale before.
Salary: $150,000-$155,000/year depending on experience.
We believe people do their best work when they’re trusted, supported, and surrounded by others who are equally driven. That’s why this role includes a “work from the PLACE you work best” approach – at home, in an office, or on the move. Our competitive benefits include PTO as needed, comprehensive insurance coverage, a 401(k) match, stock option grants, and a stock purchase plan. Every team member is an owner, building the “PLACE” they are proud to call “my company.”
