Engineering Denver, CO

At Flowhub, we're on a mission to make legal cannabis accessible to everyone. Founded in 2015, Flowhub pioneered the first Metrc API integration to help dispensaries stay compliant. Today, over 1,000 dispensaries trust Flowhub's point of sale, inventory management, business intelligence, and mobile solutions to process $3B+ cannabis sales annually.

Flowhub creates user-friendly business management and compliance products that increase revenue in the highly regulated cannabis industry. Our Engineering department is highly creative, incredibly resourceful, and obsesses over the user experience. We’re currently looking to add to our engineering team by hiring a Senior Data/DevOps Engineer.

Data and DevOps Engineers at Flowhub use their expertise to make sure our data systems are built to scale and efficient in their performance, but they also have an interest in making our other engineering tools performant, secure, and easy to use. They look for opportunities to optimize everywhere - cost, security, performance, efficiency. Flowhub engineers are pragmatic thinkers - they choose the right technology to solve the problems we’re facing. Our Data and DevOps engineers take pride in delivering a high-availability, performant product to the businesses we serve.

  • Some experience with Clickhouse, Elasticsearch, Kubernetes (even better GKE), and Gitlab

What you’ll do:

  • Optimize our data offerings by reconfiguring database system settings, managing load, rewriting queries and indexes, and introducing archival and sharding strategies

  • Understand the underlying ETL and setup of our Clickhouse and Elasticsearch data systems, ready to jump in and fix any problems that arise without notice

  • Improve developer efficiency and reduce toil by building, supporting, and improving the tooling they use every day

  • Help to identify and fill any critical gaps in our data application architecture or our security posture

  • Become familiar with our CI/CD stack (Gitlab), pass on that understanding to other teams, and identify and implement improvements to our release process

  • Work with the engineering team to reduce failures flowing into production to improve velocity and stability, improving our database deployment strategy

  • Use IAC Tools (primarily Terraform) to maintain system state and make changes

  • Implement security best practices across our infrastructure

  • Experience with data tools like Clickhouse and Elasticsearch

  • Experience with Authorization Tools like (Auth0)
