About Aalto:
Aalto has set out to create the modern, self-serve real estate platform homebuyers and sellers have been craving for decades. Beginning in 2021, sellers have been able to list their homes with a flexible and no-risk process, unlocking homes for sale months earlier than traditional real estate. Homebuyers enjoyed Aalto’s exclusive homes, unique insights, and rebates. Tens of thousands of buyers and sellers across the Bay Area are already using Aalto.
We are a distributed team of do-ers with five pillars at our core: start by being bold, drive a little over the speed limit, be an owner not a renter, disclose often, and demonstrate radical caring. Learn more at aalto.com.
About the Team:
We are a group of 12 engineers from startups and established companies alike. We divide and conquer with members of our team working on one of the following: Growth, Consumer, Platform, and Infrastructure. We are a growing Infrastructure team within Aalto’s engineering organization. Our responsibilities span infrastructure management, automation, security, and compliance. We work in a primarily GCP environment and manage a reasonably sized Kubernetes fleet of services.
We aim to hire an Infrastructure Engineer who is passionate about changing the way people buy and sell homes

Our Values
