DevOps Engineer

In this role, you will work closely with engineers within the platform team as well as development teams to automate infrastructure, enhance CI/CD pipelines, and support cloud-native workloads running on AWS. You will contribute to improving platform reliability, performance, and developer productivity by implementing infrastructure as code, managing containerized environments, and enhancing observability and deployment workflows. This role offers the opportunity to deepen your expertise in cloud technologies, automation, and platform engineering while working in a collaborative, fast-paced environment focused on continuous improvement.
YOUR CHALLENGE:

 

Design, build and maintain CI/CD pipelines to streamline deployment workflows. 
Deploy, manage, and optimize AWS infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools like Terraform. 
Work with development teams to support their workflows, ensuring the platform is configured for reliability, performance, and scalability. 
Contribute to the management and scaling of containerized applications using ECS/EKS 
Monitor platform health and performance, proactively identifying areas for improvement and addressing issues. 
Collaborate with senior engineers on complex troubleshooting and projects, continually enhancing infrastructure reliability and uptime. 
Assist in optimizing CDN performance (e.g., Cloudflare) for high-speed, resilient delivery. 
Participate in continuous improvement initiatives, automating routine tasks and reducing operational toil. 
Act as the primary point of contact for incidents collaborating with senior engineers to resolve complex issues and perform root cause analysis. 
Enhance developer experience through internal developer platform tools such as Port.io and Backstage. 
Participate in an on-call rotation to support business-critical systems and ensure rapid incident response. 

 

 

TO DO IT, YOU WILL NEED:

 

3+ years of experience in platform engineering, DevOps, cloud infrastructure, or related fields. 
Solid experience with AWS services and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools like Terraform and Ansible. 
Strong understanding of CI/CD principles, with hands-on experience setting up and maintaining pipelines. 
Experience managing and configuring web servers through NGINX or LiteSpeed. 
Familiarity with various caching layers and strategies, including object caching, NGINX caching, and edge caching. 
Proficiency with containerization technologies (e.g., Docker, LXC) and familiarity with container orchestration tools (e.g., Amazon ECS & EKS). 
Experience with CDN configurations and optimization, ideally with Cloudflare or similar. 
Proven ability to work collaboratively with cross-functional teams, providing support to developers and troubleshooting platform issues. 
Demonstrated eagerness to learn, adapt, and take on new challenges, along with an enthusiasm for continuous improvement in cloud technologies and platform management.
