Senior Devops Engineer

We are looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer with 3–5 years of experience to design, automate, and scale our cloud infrastructure. You will own CI/CD pipelines, drive reliability and observability practices, and work closely with engineering teams to ship fast without compromising stability.

Key Responsibilities

Design, build, and maintain scalable, secure, and cost-efficient cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP/Azure) using Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, CloudFormation, or Pulumi). Own and continuously improve CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions) to enable fast, reliable, and safe deployments. Manage and optimize containerized workloads using Docker and Kubernetes, including cluster upgrades, autoscaling, and resource optimization. Set up and maintain monitoring, logging, and alerting systems (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, Datadog) to ensure high system observability. Define and track SLIs/SLOs; lead incident response, root-cause analysis, and postmortems for production issues. Automate repetitive operational tasks (deployments, scaling, backups, rollbacks) to reduce manual toil across teams. Collaborate with engineering and product teams to embed DevOps/SRE best practices into the development lifecycle. Implement and enforce security best practices across infrastructure, pipelines, and access management (DevSecOps). Manage cloud cost optimization and capacity planning to balance performance with budget. Mentor junior engineers and contribute to building a strong reliability and automation-first culture.

Key Skills

3–5 years of hands-on experience in DevOps/SRE roles, with strong exposure to at least one major cloud platform (AWS, GCP, or Azure). Proficiency in Infrastructure-as-Code tools such as Terraform or CloudFormation. Strong experience with containerization and orchestration — Docker and Kubernetes. Hands-on experience building and managing CI/CD pipelines end-to-end. Solid scripting/programming skills in Python, Bash, or Go for automation. Working knowledge of monitoring and observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK/EFK, Datadog, or similar). Good understanding of networking fundamentals (DNS, load balancing, VPCs, firewalls) and Linux system administration. Experience with incident management, on-call rotations, and writing postmortems. Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment.

Good to Have

Experience with GitOps tools such as ArgoCD or Flux. Exposure to service mesh technologies (Istio, Linkerd). Relevant certifications — AWS/GCP/Azure Certified DevOps Engineer or Solutions Architect. Familiarity with configuration management tools (Ansible, Chef, Puppet). Experience working in a high-growth product or startup environment with rapid scaling needs. Understanding of compliance/security frameworks (SOC 2, ISO 27001) as applied to infrastructure. Contributions to open-source DevOps/SRE tooling.
