We’re looking for a DevOps Engineer with a solid technical foundation who’s excited to grow. You don’t need to know everything, but you should understand the basics, be comfortable asking questions, and learn by doing. You’ll help operate and improve cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes clusters, CI/CD pipelines, and internal tooling across AWS, GCP, and Azure.
  • Help design, build, and maintain cloud infrastructure across AWS, GCP, and Azure
  • Support production Kubernetes clusters and learn best practices around upgrades, troubleshooting, and performance
  • Work with Infrastructure as Code using Terraform
  • Participate in GitOps workflows using ArgoCD
  • Build and improve CI/CD pipelines
  • Assist with reliability, observability, and security improvements
  • Write automation and tooling in Go and Python
  • Support databases such as PostgreSQL, MongoDB, MySQL/MariaDB, and Microsoft SQL Server, including managed services like Amazon RDS
  • Backups, restores, and basic performance tuning
  • Assist with backup and disaster recovery processes (e.g., Velero)
  • Work with container images, registries, and basic supply-chain security
  • Learn and apply networking fundamentals like DNS, firewalls, and VPNs
You don’t need to be an expert in everything, but you should have a strong foundation in several of these areas:
  • Strong English communication skills (written and spoken); must be comfortable working directly with clients in English.
  • Experience with at least one major cloud provider (AWS, GCP, or Azure)
  • Basic to intermediate Kubernetes knowledge (pods, services, Helm, RBAC concepts)
  • Familiarity with Terraform or another IaC tool
  • Exposure to CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, etc.)
  • Some experience with Go or Python (scripts, small tools, automation)
  • Basic understanding of Linux systems and networking
  • Willingness to learn, ask questions, and take ownership
