• Strong problem solver who thrives at the intersection of development and operations
• Calm, analytical, and methodical during incidents and high-pressure situations
• Passionate about automation, infrastructure scalability, and reliability engineering
• Strong communicator who collaborates effectively across technical teams
• Proactive mindset focused on preventing issues before they impact production
Required Experience & Skills
• 3+ years of experience in DevOps, Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), or Infrastructure Engineering
• Proficiency with at least one major cloud provider (AWS, GCP, or Azure)
• Strong experience building and managing CI/CD pipelines
• Hands-on experience with Docker and Kubernetes
• Infrastructure-as-Code expertise with Terraform, Pulumi, or CloudFormation
• Experience with monitoring and observability tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, or New Relic
• Scripting experience with Python, Bash, or similar languages
• Strong understanding of cloud security best practices and infrastructure reliability
Preferred Experience & Skills
• Experience with microservices and distributed systems
• Familiarity with serverless technologies (AWS Lambda, Cloud Functions)
• Experience managing production-grade Kubernetes environments
• Cloud certifications such as AWS Certified DevOps Engineer, CKA, or equivalent
• Background supporting SaaS, fintech, healthcare, or enterprise applications
What Does a Typical Day Look Like?
A DevOps Engineer's day revolves around keeping systems secure, automated, scalable, and reliable. You will:
• Review monitoring dashboards and respond to infrastructure alerts or incidents
