MakerBot is the world’s foremost producer of consumer and prosumer 3D printers. In addition to making awesome robots that can create almost anything, MakerBot runs the premier 3D printing community, Thingiverse, where users share their designs and projects.  Thingiverse is more than just a repository for designs though, it is an open platform that allows developers to build on top of and invent new and amazing services.  Also, our printers are Internet connected to an ecosystem of web services such as a cloud storage library and remote monitoring.  We’re looking for a DevOps Engineer to help run and improve our web platforms so we can provide the best, most user-friendly, 3D printing experience. If you like to make things secure, efficient and automated, then we are just what you are looking for.
