  • Build and evolve CI/CD pipelines in Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, or similar platforms.
  • Develop and manage Infrastructure as Code using Terraform.
  • Deploy, operate, and optimize Kubernetes platforms (AKS, EKS, GKE, and self-managed clusters).
  • Automate provisioning and operational workflows with Python, Bash, or PowerShell.
  • Implement observability and reliability practices—metrics, logs, traces, dashboards, and alerting.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Technology, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 5+ years in DevOps, Cloud Engineering, SRE, Platform Engineering, or closely related roles supporting production environments.
  • Strong hands-on experience with Azure and AWS, including core compute, networking, identity, and security fundamentals.
  • Proven experience implementing Infrastructure as Code with Terraform across cloud and/or on-prem environments.
  • Strong Kubernetes experience (AKS and/or EKS), including deployment, upgrades, troubleshooting, and operating containerized workloads at scale.
  • CI/CD pipeline design and maintenance experience using Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or similar tooling.
  • Automation skills in Python and/or PowerShell.

Desired Qualifications

  • Differentiating experience with modern observability practices (metrics, logs, traces) using OpenTelemetry and tools like Prometheus/Grafana, Azure Monitor, CloudWatch, Elastic, Datadog, or New Relic.
  • Familiarity with GitOps (ArgoCD/Flux) or AI-assisted operations is a plus.

Benefits

  • Comprehensive range of health, wellness, and financial benefits.
  • Total rewards include both monetary and non-monetary offerings.
  • Potential for annual bonus, equity, and other discretionary bonuses.
  • Competitive total rewards package.
  • The actual compensation offered will be based on a number of job-related factors, including location, skills, experience, and education.
