The Role

We are looking for our next Senior DevOps Engineer. Someone will passionately contribute with infrastructure-as-code, accelerating development and deployment processes, increasing reliability, and scaling our platform as our company grows.

Our team is 100% remote; however, we prefer candidates in the same time zones as the greater United States (UTC-10 to UTC-4).

This is an on-call position and will require you to be part of an on-call schedule. We will also occasionally require you to work outside of normal business hours on infrastructure upgrades and maintenance. We are committed to working with you to keep a healthy and balanced schedule.

About the Team:

We’re a small DevOps team supporting the whole Engineering organization, building applications on top of Kubernetes and AWS. We own all aspects of the SDLC but strive to automate self-service wherever possible. Being a small team, we also practice SRE, continuously improving our observability and building nearly everything with Infrastructure-as-Code. Security and compliance best practices are integral to our workflows, ensuring systems are secure by design and meet regulatory and organizational standards. Our team is remote and works in a fast-paced environment. We collaborate with various departments and emphasize strong communication skills.

About You:

You are an experienced cloud engineer with at least 5+ years managing Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and/or Amazon Web Services (AWS), including services such as EC2, EKS, RDS (Aurora Serverless), Elasticache (Redis), Route53, S3, ECR, IAM security, VPC, and Security Groups. You have a strong track record operating large-scale, high-availability, asynchronous, distributed systems, deploying and managing service-oriented architectures, and improving application performance and solving scaling challenges. You have collaborated with both internal and external departments in architecting and designing scalable and secure solutions.

You have hands-on experience running Kubernetes in production, and you are skilled with infrastructure-as-code technologies such as Terraform or Pulumi. You understand how to design and implement robust monitoring and reporting solutions using tools like Datadog and Sentry. You have a solid understanding of networking (routers, switches, load balancing, DNS, VPN, TLS). You are experienced in working with source control and CI/CD systems such as Git/GitHub, Jenkins, GitLab, or FluxCD.

You are a seasoned developer and can code in one or more programming languages such as Python, TypeScript, or Go. You have experience with data warehousing using BigQuery or Redshift. You are security-minded and strive to ensure security and compliance best practices throughout the SDLC to meet SOC2 and PCI requirements, especially when handling PII.

You are comfortable working with serverless frameworks such as AWS Lambda. You are experienced in building playbooks, writing design documentation, mentoring junior-level DevOps engineers, and sharing knowledge to strengthen the team as a whole.

Requirements:

- At least 5 years of experience as a DevOps Engineer or Platform Engineer - Hands-on experience with Kubernetes, including the ability to troubleshoot cluster-related issues.

- Experience working with a major cloud provider (AWS, GCP, or Azure), and a solid understanding of networking concepts such as VPCs, DNS, TLS, load balancing, and VPNs.

- Solid understanding of the software development lifecycle (SDLC) and modern CI/CD systems such as GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab, or FluxCD.

- Strong ability to architect solutions from the ground up and plan implementation on tight deadlines.

- Experience with high-level programming languages such as Python, Typescript, Go - Building Infrastructure following PCI and SOC2 best practices.
