If you check these boxes — let’s talk.
We’re hiring a senior, hands-on DevOps Engineer / Architect to design and run modern infrastructure. This is not a pure coding role — it’s for an engineer who applies code to build, automate, and operate real systems across cloud, backend platforms, and bare metal.
You’ll help evolve our Infrastructure-as-Code practices, scale Kubernetes environments, and improve platform reliability through automation-first engineering.
✅ Core Skills — You Should Check Most (Ideally All) of These
- Architecture Mindset
You’ve designed systems end-to-end and can explain tradeoffs, scalability decisions, and reliability patterns.
- Strong Coding Ability (Python and Golang Preferred)
You write production-quality code to automate infrastructure, build tooling, and improve platforms.
- Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform / Terragrunt)
Deep hands-on experience building and managing cloud infrastructure using IaC at scale.
- Kubernetes in Production
You’ve deployed, operated, and troubleshot real Kubernetes environments.
- Ansible (Tower or AWX Required)
Strong configuration management experience and automation design.
- Linux Systems Expertise
Comfortable at the OS level — performance, networking basics, packages, system behavior.
- Cloud + Bare Metal Experience
You understand how systems run both in cloud platforms (AWS/GCP/Azure) and on physical or low-level infrastructure.
- CI/CD & Platform Automation
Experience designing and maintaining pipelines and automation workflows (Jenkins preferred).
What You’ll Work On
- Designing and automating scalable infrastructure using Infrastructure-as-Code
- Standardizing Terraform, Terragrunt, and Kubernetes environments
- Building and improving CI/CD pipelines and platform tooling
- Creating secure, repeatable infrastructure patterns with engineering teams
- Improving system reliability, scalability, and operational efficiency
Nice to Have (Bonuses, Not Requirements)
HashiCorp Consul (service networking/service discovery)
- Temporal or Cadence (distributed workflow orchestration)
- Kong
- Advanced Jenkins
- NetScaler (Citrix)
- Route 53 DNS
- Grafana
- Nexus/Artifactory
- Multi-region cloud architectures
Success in This Role
You think like an architect, automate like an engineer, and operate like an owner. You build platforms that scale, remove manual work, and raise the bar for reliability, security, and developer experience.
