The opportunity:

Do you thrive at the crossroads of software delivery, cloud infrastructure, and operational excellence? Are you passionate about increasing delivery velocity while raising the bar on reliability, security, and observability? If so, we'd like to meet you.

We are seeking a seasoned Principal DevOps Architect to advance our DevOps maturity by improving automation, observability, and continuous improvement across the software development lifecycle. As a key member of the Technology Operations leadership team, you will define and lead our DevOps strategy-partnering closely with engineering, cloud operations, and security to deliver secure, reliable, and scalable platforms.

What you'll do

• Design and implement a robust, scalable, and secure DevOps environment that enables continuous integration and deployment aligned to business objectives.

• Partner with software engineering and product teams to translate delivery needs into an efficient CI/CD ecosystem-recommending, selecting, implementing, evolving, and optimizing tools and practices.

• Establish and maintain DevOps architecture standards, guidelines, and best practices to ensure consistency, quality, and repeatability across teams and systems.

• Champion Infrastructure as Code (IaC) practices so infrastructure is provisioned, configured, observed, and managed in a consistent and repeatable manner.

• Lead cross-functional collaboration between engineering, cloud operations, and security to design and deliver secure and reliable infrastructure solutions that support the DevOps process.

• Define and evolve observability standards (logging, metrics, tracing) and use telemetry (e.g., Splunk) to identify bottlenecks, improve performance, and increase delivery reliability.

• Promote a culture of collaboration and shared responsibility across engineering, cloud operations, and security teams.

• Mentor cloud operations engineers, fostering continuous learning and knowledge sharing within the team.

• Develop and maintain clear, durable documentation for DevOps architecture, standards, and operational processes.

What you'll bring

• 8+ years of experience applying DevOps principles to deliver highly available, scalable cloud applications.

• Proven ability to define platform/DevOps architecture strategy, establish standards, and drive adoption across multiple engineering teams.

• Strong hands-on experience designing and operating CI/CD pipelines and toolchains (e.g., Jenkins), with a focus on reliability, repeatability, and developer experience.

• Expertise with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform and/or CloudFormation) and configuration practices that enable repeatable, auditable environments.

• Experience with AWS architecture, including multi-account landing zones and governance (e.g., AWS Control Tower).

• Experience with container platforms and orchestration (e.g., Amazon ECS), including secure image/build practices and deployment patterns.

• Ability to build and operate observability capabilities (logging, metrics, tracing) and use telemetry tools to improve performance and reliability.

• Deep understanding of DevSecOps and security best practices, including least-privilege access, secrets management, vulnerability management, and secure SDLC controls.

• Experience designing identity and access patterns for platform services (e.g., OIDC/SSO) in partnership with security stakeholders.

• Familiarity with ephemeral environment patterns and automation for safe, cost-effective testing and preview deployments.

• Experience leveraging AI coding assistants to develop and review enterprise-grade solutions, with attention to quality, security, and maintainability.

• Excellent communication and documentation skills; able to influence engineering, operations, and security.

You'll stand out if you have

• AI coding experience

• Experience with Jenkins
