Platform / Dev Ops Engineer - Infrastructure & Automation

Open 21d posting dated 21 hours ago

Summary

Build and scale cloud infrastructure for a fast-growing startup, designing CI/CD pipelines and per-client deployments while automating environments with IaC and Kubernetes.

TL;DR: We’re looking for a sharp, hands-on and innovative Platform / DevOps Engineer who loves turning cloud chaos into clean, scalable systems. If rebuilding core cloud flows from scratch, structuring environments, and optimizing costs excites you - keep reading.

We're a fast-growing startup backed by top-tier investors, building powerful technology for leading clients. We move fast, ship continuously, and operate in production at scale — including dedicated, per-client installations each running a suite of interconnected services. Now we're looking for someone to take ownership of our infrastructure layer and elevate it to the next level.

This is not a maintenance role. This is a builder role.

We are searching for:

  • Autonomous and proactive
  • Comfortable taking ownership over messy areas
  • Fast-moving but thoughtful

You Will

  • Design and implement scalable CI/CD flows
  • Design and operate a fleet of independent per-client deployments — version tracking, controlled rollouts, drift detection across environments
  • Standardize and restructure environment & configuration management
  • Introduce and enforce IaC
  • Increase deployment reliability and rollback safety
  • Build the tooling and processes that let us answer, at any moment: what is running on each client, and is it healthy?
  • Enable developers to ship faster and safer
  • Help define long-term infrastructure standards

You will work closely with the CTO and the R&D team, owning infrastructure decisions and execution.

Requirements

  • 3-6 years of hands-on DevOps / Platform / Cloud Engineering experience
  • Strong experience with AWS (EC2, S3, IAM, networking fundamentals)
  • Experience building CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions / GitLab CI / similar)
  • Infrastructure as Code experience (Terraform / Pulumi / Crossplane)
  • Strong Linux and systems understanding
  • A pragmatic mindset - you optimize for simplicity, clarity, and reliability
  • Containerization (Docker, Kubernetes, ECS)

Nice to Have:

  • GitOps experience (ArgoCD, Flux) for managing state across multiple environments - advantage
  • On-prem - including relevant networking knowledge - advantage
  • Cloud cost optimization (rightsizing, tagging strategy, cost visibility) - advantage
  • Early-stage startup experience - advantage
