DevOps Engineer

We are looking for a Dev Ops Engineer who thrives on making development and operations teams more efficient. In this role, you'll design and build tooling that abstracts away complexity, empowering developers to spend more time focused on building great products. If you enjoy solving problems, streamlining workflows, and driving productivity across teams, this is an opportunity to make a big impact.

Buyers Edge Platform stands at the forefront of revolutionizing the food service industry through technology, purchasing power and partnerships. We are dedicated to empowering stakeholders across the entire food service ecosystem (operators, distributors, manufacturers) with efficiency and unprecedented visibility. With a diverse portfolio of over a dozen brands, our mission is clear: to reduce costs, streamline the food service supply chain, and propel the industry from manual to automated.

Today, we are one of the largest players in food service, with over 200K operator locations across North America and over $50 billion of aggregated spend volume. Our commitment to food service excellence is proven in four distinct areas of value:
Digital Procurement Network, Fresh Solutions, Supply Chain Management, and Software. Buyers Edge Platform is not just a provider – we are a strategic partner on the journey towards a more efficient, connected, and automated future for the food service industry.

We are focused on performance, not presence.

In practice, this might mean working extra hours some days to hit that while having other days that allow for more free time and recovery.
