Avo is hiring a Senior Infrastructure Engineer

About Us

At Avo we believe good products are built with fast and measurable iterations towards a clear purpose. Every successful data-driven company needs relevant and reliable analytics to stay focused on what is important so they can drive their business forward. However, while there are plenty of customer analytics solutions out there, over time every company begins to suffer from analytics debt -- drowning in inaccurate, duplicative, and incomprehensible data, leading to wrong decisions and lack of trust in data. Avo helps companies ensure that their existing and future tracking data is clean and functional, so they can make informed decisions that drive growth. With Avo, everyone gets the right answers.

We are developers and data scientists who solved this problem at scale at QuizUp (100m users, backed by Sequoia and Tencent). We focus on building outstanding tools for developers and product teams, so they can ship products fast without compromising data quality.

We welcome talented people from all backgrounds, remote or onsite in San Francisco or Reykjavik. Come join us!
