Why This Job is Featured on The SaaS Jobs
Enterprise SaaS increasingly needs credible on premise delivery alongside cloud options, especially when buyers operate under strict security and compliance constraints. This Deployment Engineer role is notable because it centers on deploying a SaaS solution inside customer environments, spanning Proof of Value through long term production operation. Sitting within the CTO organization signals close proximity to core technical decision making rather than a purely services led function.
For a SaaS career, the value is in building the muscle to take a product from “works in our stack” to “runs reliably in many stacks.” That includes designing repeatable deployment architecture, hardening Kubernetes based systems, and translating contractual or RFP driven requirements into executable technical plans. The customer facing element also develops a rare blend in SaaS: infrastructure depth paired with the ability to run technical reviews and align stakeholders through go live and post deployment support.
This role tends to fit engineers who enjoy ownership across the full deployment lifecycle and prefer solving environment level problems over narrow feature work. It also suits professionals who like structured execution, clear communication with enterprise customers, and independent work in a remote, cross time zone setup.

Job Description
Deployment Engineer
- CTO
- United States – East Coast – Full-time (remote)
Description
We are looking for a hands-on Deployment Engineer to lead the secure and scalable deployment of our solution within IVIX client environments. This role owns the full technical lifecycle of customer engagements, from Proof of Value through to long-term enterprise deployment.
In this role you will own and develop the IVIX on-premise deployment, leveraging DevOps and engineering skills to ensure it is scalable, stable, and secure for enterprise-level customers.
If you are a DevOps engineer who is comfortable working directly with customers through the deployment process, we are looking for you.
You will sit at the intersection of engineering and customer partnership: deep enough to manage infrastructure and resolve complex environment-level issues, senior enough to translate a client's technical requirements into a deployment plan and drive it through to execution.
The role sits within the CTO organization.
About the postion
- Own and develop the IVIX on-premise deployment architecture end to end, driving engineering decisions on how it is built, scaled, and improved over time
- Execute complex deployments in client environments, working hands-on with Kubernetes, containerized services, networking, storage, and multi-component infrastructure configurations
- Serve as the technical point of contact with clients from pre-onboarding through go-live, leading technical conversations, managing expectations, and handling any technical questions that arise throughout the deployment process
- Translate RFP requirements and contractual specifications into structured installation plans, coordinating all moving parts and managing the deployment timeline end to end
- Take full ownership of post-deployment technical operations: resolving infrastructure failures, networking and connectivity issues, and containerized service configurations across client environments
- Equal Opportunity Employer
Requirements
What You Bring
- 5+ years in a technical deployment, DevOps, or SRE role within a B2B or B2G enterprise software environment
- Hands-on experience with Docker, Kubernetes, Linux systems, networking fundamentals including firewall rules, DNS, and VPN configurations, and virtualization platforms
- Demonstrable experience operating within security and compliance-heavy environments, such as government, financial services, or comparable regulated industries
- The customer-facing skills to match the technical depth. You can lead a client technical review, navigate difficult technical conversations, and communicate clearly to both engineers and executives
- Strong organizational and project management skills, able to manage multiple client deployments, timelines, and moving parts simultaneously
- Ability to work independently in a US-based remote role, collaborating closely with an Israel-based team across time zones
Strong Advantage
- On-premise deployment experience specifically. Cloud-native engineers with strong internals knowledge are considered, but prior on-prem exposure is a meaningful differentiator
- Python proficiency for scripting, data processing, or integrations
- Fluency in Spanish
- Background working in US-based roles within Israeli-founded technology companies
ADDITIONAL
- Willingness to travel to client sites as needed
- East Coast US-based (remote)
