Who We Are
Veson Nautical empowers the global maritime industry to navigate complexity on all sides of the trade. Veson's platform combines AI-driven workflows, trusted data, and seamless collaboration, to deliver the insight and context needed for confident, competitive decision-making.
The Opportunity
As a Site Reliability Engineer at Veson Nautical, you will design, build, monitor, and support the cloud infrastructure that underpins our rapidly growing SaaS platform. This is a multi-cloud role spanning both AWS and Google Cloud Platform, with an immediate focus on growing our GCP footprint and the systems that connect our environments across regions, accounts, and clouds.
The work is a mix of greenfield and stewardship. You'll stand up infrastructure for new applications from scratch, and you'll take on the harder problem of making our existing estate more consistent, more observable, and easier to operate.
Our suite of products includes:
- Veson Platform - the core commercial maritime platform used by the world's leading shipping organizations to manage vessel communication, operations, and trade decisions
- Oceanbolt - a dynamic data intelligence platform, tracking over 23,000 vessels in real time to deliver accurate, timely market intelligence to drive decision making
- Shipfix - using proprietary AI-driven tools to infer cargo and vessel information, extracting, anonymizing, and aggregating billions of data points with near real-time processing of email exchanges in the shipping market
The Team
You'll join a global Site Reliability Engineering team with members in the United States and the United Kingdom.
This position is based in London or Boston in a hybrid model, with an expectation of 2-3 days per week in our office. We think those days are worth showing up for: our beautiful office is stocked with snacks, there's a weekly team lunch on us, and the atmosphere is friendly, informal, and genuinely collaborative.
The team participates in an on-call rotation -more details will be provided in the interview process.
Our Stack
- Google Cloud Platform - primarily PaaS services (Bigtable, Cloud SQL, Dataflow, Datastore, GKE, GCS, KMS, Pub/Sub)
- Amazon Web Services - multi-region, multi-account, with a broad range of managed services
- Containers and orchestration - Kubernetes (GKE and EKS)
- Infrastructure-as-Code - Terraform, Terragrunt, and Atlantis
- CI/CD - GitLab Pipelines, ArgoCD, Octopus Deploy
- Data - ElasticSearch hosted with Kubernetes Operator, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, BigQuery
- Monitoring and Security - Splunk, Grafana / Grafana Tempo, OpenTelemetry, Cloud Armor Enterprise, OpsGenie, Renovate, Sentry
- AI Tools - Claude, Amazon Bedrock, Gemini, Vertex AI
Key Responsibilities
- Design, implement, and operate scalable, reliable, and secure infrastructure across Google Cloud Platform and AWS
- Lead greenfield infrastructure builds for new applications, and modernize existing infrastructure toward common patterns
- Solve cross-region, cross-account, and cross-cloud problems — networking, identity, data movement, and the operational patterns that hold across environments
- Drive automation of infrastructure provisioning and configuration management using Terraform and related IaC tooling
- Establish and maintain comprehensive monitoring, alerting, and observability practices
- Cross-train and mentor other engineers, with the explicit goal of broadening GCP and multi-cloud capability across the team
- Partner closely with development teams to ensure the reliability, performance, and scalability of our platforms
- Set technical direction through design reviews, architecture proposals, and clear written documentation
- Participate in and improve incident response, and drive the follow-through that keeps the same incident from recurring
- Improve the cost effectiveness of our cloud footprint through visibility, analysis, and sound architectural choices
Skills/Experience Needed to Be Successful in This Role
Required:
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
- Previous experience working on a large-scale Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform supporting thousands of global users in a 24x7x365 environment
- 3+ years of hands-on experience with Google Cloud Platform services and architecture, including running production workloads at scale
- Production Kubernetes experience, particularly Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE)
- Proficiency with Infrastructure-as-Code, preferably Terraform
- Experience with Google Cloud networking, including VPC, Cloud Load Balancing, and Cloud CDN
- Strong programming skills in Python, Go, or TypeScript for automation and tool development
Highly Desirable:
- Hands-on experience with both GCP and AWS, and a clear point of view on where multi-cloud helps and where it hurts
- Working knowledge of Google Cloud security best practices and IAM implementation
- Experience with Google Cloud data services including BigQuery and Dataflow
- Experience working on a geographically distributed team across time zones
Nice to have:
- Google Cloud Professional certifications (Cloud Architect, Data Engineer, or DevOps Engineer)
- Experience with GitLab CI or Octopus Deploy
We are focused on building a diverse and inclusive workforce. If you're excited about this role, but do not meet 100% of the qualifications listed above, we encourage you to apply. While we try to be thorough with our job descriptions, not everything about you as a candidate can be condensed into a list of bullet points.

Reliability Engineer Jobs in Massachusetts: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a reliability engineer in Massachusetts?
Most Massachusetts employers require a bachelor's degree in mechanical, electrical, or industrial engineering as the foundation. Senior and principal roles increasingly expect a Professional Engineer license, which in Massachusetts is issued by the Board of Registration of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors. Candidates strengthen their candidacy by earning a Certified Reliability Engineer credential through the American Society for Quality, and by gaining hands-on experience in manufacturing, defense, or energy sectors that dominate the state.
Which companies hire reliability engineers in Massachusetts?
Employers hiring reliability engineers in Massachusetts right now include Akamai Technologies, MACOM Technology Solutions, and IPG Photonics Corporation, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Massachusetts's concentration of aerospace primes, large biopharmaceutical manufacturers, and regulated energy operators makes it one of the more active states for reliability engineering roles year-round.
Which Massachusetts cities have the most reliability engineer jobs?
Boston, Lowell, and Cambridge have the most reliability engineer openings in Massachusetts. Boston anchors demand through its dense cluster of life sciences campuses and corporate headquarters, while Waltham and Lowell draw volume from the defense contractors and advanced manufacturing facilities that are well established along the Route 128 and Merrimack Valley corridors.
Are there remote reliability engineer jobs in Massachusetts?
Yes, but they're rare. Reliability engineering is fundamentally a hands-on discipline tied to physical assets and plant floors, so most openings require on-site or regional travel. About 67% of reliability engineer openings tied to Massachusetts are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, and those tend to concentrate in data analytics, reliability modeling, and program management functions that don't require direct equipment access.
How can I get hired as a reliability engineer in Massachusetts with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is a rotational engineering or associate engineer program at one of Massachusetts's large manufacturers. Companies such as Raytheon Technologies and major biopharmaceutical producers in the Boston-Waltham corridor regularly bring in new graduates through structured rotational tracks that include a reliability or maintenance engineering assignment. Candidates who pair their degree with a Reliability and Maintainability Engineering certificate or intern at a Massachusetts-based contract manufacturer gain a practical edge before applying to full reliability engineer roles.
Where can I find and apply to reliability engineer jobs in Massachusetts?
You can find and apply to reliability engineer jobs in Massachusetts on Migrate Mate, which lists current Massachusetts openings updated regularly. Find roles that fit your experience and location, then apply directly to the employer through the listing.
