Hearsay Systems is hiring an experienced DevOps (Site Reliability) Engineer to join our engineering organization in Budapest.

The Hearsay Platform is the preeminent omni-channel digital engagement center for the financial services advisor. It tethers the most effective marketing, acquisition and servicing channels into one ecosystem which enables the advisor to focus on the most important part of their job - building and servicing relationships - without the friction of switching between systems or the fear of compliance backlash.

At Hearsay, we are true believers in the power of having engineers be capable of, accountable for, and enthusiastic about owning their services from development through production, delivering value in small increments that add up to a big deal. Doing this at scale is where you come in: providing guidance, and expertise, and performing the “hands-on” projects and tasks that drive outstanding customer experience while also improving the day-to-day work of our software developers.

We are serious about our work, but we are also serious about our people. Technology provides a gateway for creativity and innovation and we want you to bring your ideas and experiences to add to our team.
