Job description

We need a senior DevOps and Observability Engineer, on contract. The role covers

infrastructure automation, CI/CD pipelines, cloud operations, and observability. You own both sides: build-and-deploy and the observability stack.

On-call rotation is part of the job, shared across the team.

Background check required.


Required Skills

• Infrastructure as Code and configuration management: Terraform for infrastructure,

Ansible for application deployment and config

• Scripting: Bash, Python, PowerShell

• CI/CD pipelines: GitHub Actions, including integration of SAST, DAST, secret

scanning, and dependency auditing without turning every deploy into a compliance

obstacle course

• Cloud platforms: AWS and/or Azure

• Cloud cost management: Infracost with pre-commit hooks, AWS Cost Explorer, AWS

Budgets, Azure Cost Management + Billing, Azure Budgets

• Identity and access management: IAM across cloud platforms; least privilege in

practice, not just on paper

• Networking fundamentals: VNETs, VPCs, subnets, routing, and enough

troubleshooting instinct to isolate a network problem without immediately filing a

ticket

• Log management: Splunk and/or ELK Stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana)

• Observability and alerting: LogicMonitor

• Containerization: Docker, including writing efficient Dockerfiles and keeping images

lean; you know why bloated images are a problem and you don’t copy the internet’s

bad habits

• Version control: Git/GitHub

What You Bring

• 5 to 8 years in DevOps or platform engineering

• You build observability pipelines and alerting frameworks from scratch

• Cross-platform experience (Linux and Windows); Linux-first thinking is a plus

• You build tools, not workarounds

• You don’t need hand-holding to ship

• You’ve been on-call long enough to know the difference between an alert that

matters and one that wakes everyone up for nothing. When an incident hits, you

lead the call. Your post-mortems result in actual changes, not a doc nobody reads.

• You can connect SLO/SLA metrics to outcomes the business actually cares about

Nice to Have

• Kubernetes cluster administration

• Prometheus and/or Grafana (dashboard design and metrics pipelines)

• LogicMonitor Synthetics or similar uptime and synthetic
