DevOps Engineer

*What does Nodes & Links do?*
Did you know that an ancient Roman Aqueduct initially cost 12 million sesterces but ended up costing more than 30 million? Big projects have always been problematic to humanity - we want to fix that.

We are developing an AI-first SaaS platform to help people who deal with very large projects. If someone is building a nuclear plant or a data center, they need a special kind of software to organize and prioritize their work. That's us.

Recognized by TechNation, Construction Tech Review, and Amazon as industry leaders, we're part of Oxford University's Creative Destruction Lab and Entrepreneur First alumni, with awards from CIR, CogX, and the British Construction Industry. Our global clients include Intel, AECOM, and BAM, and we've raised $30M to date from top VC funds.

This is a great opportunity to join an ambitious deep-tech start-up in a dynamic and mission-driven environment, driving our growth from a start-up to a scale-up

You will also be helping to solve one of the oldest problems of mankind and potentially save the economy billions - not bad right?
