Overview

Loom is on a mission to empower everyone at work to communicate more effectively, wherever they are. We are already trusted by over 3M users across 70k+ companies. Our customers are global and use Loom at work at world-class companies including HubSpot, Square, Uber, GrubHub, and LinkedIn.

Founded in 2016, Loom has raised $45 million from top-tier investors including Sequoia Capital, Kleiner Perkins, the Slack Fund, and the founders of Instagram, Figma, and Front.

The Role:

Loom makes it simple to create HD video content and have it instantly available to share with anyone in the world. Because of this simplicity, multiple years’ worth of video content is created on Loom every week from people in almost every country around the world, and this growth rate has been rapidly growing. It’s vital that Loom continues to be seen as a utility that our users can depend upon. Loom needs to continue to just work. Given the nature of processing video at scale, this is no easy feat and requires being conscious about price, performance, and the evolution of our culture.

As we introduce Team and Enterprise offerings, mobile applications, innovate on the core recorders, and explore strategic integrations and partnerships, we anticipate the complexity and scale of our systems to increase by an order of magnitude over the next year. As the Infrastructure manager, you will be reporting directly into the VP of Engineering and will have a critical impact at one of the most exciting times in our company’s history.
