DevOps Engineer

We are looking for a skilled and passionate DevOps Engineer with 3+ years of hands-on experience to join our engineering team. In this role, you will own and evolve our cloud infrastructure, build and maintain CI/CD pipelines, and ensure the reliability, scalability, and security of our platform. You will work closely with development, security, and operations teams to drive a culture of automation and continuous improvement.

Responsibilities:

CI/CD & Automation:
• Design, build, and maintain end-to-end CI/CD pipelines using tools such as Jenkins, GitLab CI,GitHub Actions, or CircleCI.
• Automate build, test, deployment, and release workflows to reduce manual effort and time-to-market.
• Implement GitOps practices and manage infrastructure-as-code using Terraform or Pulumi.

Kubernetes & Container Orchestration:
• Manage, monitor, and scale Kubernetes clusters (EKS, GKE, or AKS) in production environments.
• Define and maintain Helm charts, manifests, and deployment strategies including canary and blue-green releases.
• Troubleshoot cluster and application-level issues, ensuring high availability and performance.

Cloud Infrastructure:
• Architect and maintain infrastructure across one or more major cloud providers: AWS, GCP, or Azure.
• Optimize cloud resource utilization, cost efficiency, and security posture.
• Implement networking configurations, VPCs, load balancers, DNS, and CDN setups.
• Experience with AWS, GCP, or Azure is a plus — familiarity with managed services such as EKS, GKE, AKS, RDS, Cloud Storage, and IAM is highly valued.

Monitoring, Reliability & Security:
• Set up and maintain observability stacks using tools like Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, or ELK.
• Define SLOs/SLAs and implement alerting, on-call runbooks, and incident response procedures.
• Enforce security best practices: secrets management (Vault, AWS Secrets Manager), RBAC, and vulnerability scanning.

Collaboration & Culture:
• Partner with software engineers to improve developer experience and reduce deployment friction.
• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to DevOps best practices documentation.
• Participate in architecture reviews and contribute to technical roadmap planning.
