We are seeking a skilled Cloud & DevOps expert to help us transition our Art & Collectibles marketplace to a cloud-native infrastructure. This project involves implementing a scalable, secure, and observable DevOps pipeline using cutting-edge technologies like Kubernetes, Terraform, and Docker. Our aim is to enhance system reliability, reduce deployment times, and ensure seamless scaling to accommodate our growing user base. This transformation is critical to maintaining our competitive edge in the dynamic Art & Collectibles industry.
Our primary users are artists and collectors who use our platform to discover, buy, and sell unique art pieces and collectibles. They rely on a seamless, fast, and secure experience to transact and interact with other art enthusiasts.
Our current infrastructure struggles with scaling efficiently to meet the increasing demand, leading to slow performance and potential downtime during high-traffic events. This negatively impacts user experience and could deter potential users.
There is a clear market readiness to invest in scalable and secure infrastructure to gain a competitive advantage in the rapidly growing digital art market and to ensure long-term sustainability and user satisfaction.
Failure to upgrade our infrastructure could lead to lost revenue opportunities due to poor user experience, potential security breaches, and an inability to compete with more technologically advanced platforms.
Many competitors still rely on traditional, less flexible infrastructures, or have only partially adopted cloud technologies, which limits their ability to scale effectively and provide a superior user experience.
Our platform's unique selling proposition lies in its user-centric design, offering unparalleled accessibility to a diverse range of art and collectibles, coupled with state-of-the-art technology that ensures optimum performance and security.
Our go-to-market strategy involves leveraging partnerships with renowned artists and galleries, engaging with art influencer networks, and implementing targeted digital marketing campaigns to attract both emerging and established collectors.
