Principal DevOps Engineer
Boston, MA | Hybrid | Onshape
Onshape, a PTC SaaS business, is redefining how professional engineers design, collaborate and manage product data in the cloud. Our platform brings the best of modern SaaS collaboration to 3D CAD - think SolidWorks meets GitHub meets Google Docs - and is used globally by teams building the next generation of products.

Why This Role Matters
Operate and evolve the cloud platform behind a globally used SaaS product. Focus on AWS infrastructure, automation, Linux operations, Kubernetes platforms, security, compliance, and operational excellence.
