Discussion

At ExWo we’re building a global digital platform focused on fairness, simplicity, and radical transparency. We’re not here to reinvent the wheel – we’re here to make it turn better.


Our mission is simple: put users first, cut the nonsense, and build a product that earns trust every step of the way.

We’re looking for a Lead DevOps Engineer to take ownership of our infrastructure and help shape the way we build, deploy, and operate our technology. This is a hands-on senior role combining technical leadership, infrastructure architecture, automation, and operational excellence.


What You’ll Do:

  • Own and continuously improve our infrastructure, focusing on scalability, reliability, performance, and security.
  • Design and implement new cloud infrastructure and architectural solutions.
  • Lead the development and improvement of CI/CD pipelines in close collaboration with Engineering.
  • Manage and optimize PostgreSQL, caching, and messaging infrastructure.
  • Work with AWS services including VPC, ECS, EC2, RDS, MSK, CloudWatch, CloudFront, WAF, IAM, Lambda, and Route53.
  • Build and maintain Docker-based environments and automate infrastructure and operational processes.
  • Troubleshoot complex production and infrastructure issues and drive their resolution.
  • Establish DevOps best practices and provide technical guidance.
  • Stay current with DevOps, cloud infrastructure, automation, and distributed systems technologies.


What We’re Looking For:

  • 7+ years of experience in DevOps, Infrastructure, SRE, or System Administration.
  • Strong hands-on experience with AWS and cloud infrastructure.
  • Solid understanding of infrastructure architecture, networking, security, and cloud best practices.
  • Strong experience with CI/CD, Docker, and GitHub.
  • Experience with PostgreSQL and caching technologies, preferably Redis.
  • Experience with messaging systems, preferably Kafka / Amazon MSK.
  • Ability to take end-to-end ownership of infrastructure and make sound technical decisions.
  • Experience mentoring or acting as a technical lead is a strong plus.
  • Excellent written and spoken English.


Nice to Have:

  • Previous experience in iGaming, fintech, online entertainment, or another high-volume digital product environment.
  • Experience with Infrastructure as Code, such as Terraform.
  • Experience with Kubernetes or other container orchestration technologies.
  • Experience working in a high-growth, fast-paced technology environment.
  • Experience with observability, monitoring, and incident management.
  • Experience designing systems for high availability, resilience, and disaster recovery.


What We Offer:

  • Competitive salary and annual performance bonus.
  • Premium health insurance.
  • Up to 25 days paid annual leave
  • 1 work-from-home day per week.
  • Opportunity to grow within a dynamic international company.
  • A collaborative, fun, and forward-thinking work culture.


If you're ready to bring your energy, curiosity, and attention to detail into a fast-moving, player-first environment – we'd love to meet you.
