About the role
As a Senior DevOps Engineer at Dropzone AI, you'll own and evolve the infrastructure that powers our AI platform. You'll work closely with teammates throughout engineering and security to design scalable, resilient, and secure systems - from CI/CD to runtime environments - while enabling fast, safe iteration from development through production.
What you'll do
  • Enhance production monitoring and observability in containerized environments
  • Improve our infrastructure-as-code deployments (Pulumi) to prepare for scaling to the next customer growth inflection point.
  • Develop and refine internal tooling to support efficiency and reliability. Strengthen the reliability, performance, and scalability of our core SOC analyst product, which automates human investigation techniques to analyze security alerts
  • Participate actively in a 24x7 on-call rotation, maintaining high availability and rapid response
  • Contribute to future expansion efforts to support multi-cloud infrastructure (GCP, Azure)
  • Write new product features when interested and excited to do so

Requirements
  • 4+ years of experience as a DevOps, Infrastructure, or Site Reliability Engineer with practical, hands-on depth
  • Skills in observability and monitoring (e.g. Prometheus, Grafana), distributed tracing
  • Strong experience with containerization technologies, especially Docker and Kubernetes (k8s)
  • Software development skills with Python, capable of writing production-level code
  • Solid understanding of distributed systems, including troubleshooting, identifying bottlenecks, and performance optimization
  • Infrastructure-as-code experience (Pulumi preferred), maintaining fully automated CI/CD deployment pipelines
  • System administration and infrastructure management capabilities
  • Familiarity with modern security best practices, common vulnerabilities, and securing distributed environments
  • Ability to differentiate when a production-grade service is necessary versus implementing a one-time or temporary solution
  • Early-stage startup mindset; you conquer ambiguity and move with lightspeed execution
  • Data-driven decision making - it's part of your DNA
  • A strong opinion on emacs vs vim

Work Environment/Travel
We are a 100% remote company where you will work from your home with company-provided equipment to set you up for success. Semi-frequent travel to professional office settings and other events locally and nationally; some overnight travel expected.
