Platform DevOps Engineer (5 years of experience Noght Shift)

Title: Platform / DevOps Engineer (Reliability & BCDR)

  • Location: DHA phase 1
  • Shift: 6pm - 3am
  • Type: Full-time
  • 2 year Contract

We’re looking for a Platform/DevOps engineer to own production reliability end-to-end. You’ll automate deployments, prove backups and disaster recovery with real exercises, keep production uptime healthy, tighten observability, maintain runbooks, and automate secrets rotation and access hygiene.

This is a hands-on role: you build and operate the systems, not just write tickets about them.

What you’ll own

Automate and harden CI/CD so production releases are repeatable, reviewable, and low-risk (less manual deploy work)

Design and run backup verification and restore exercises on a set cadence; document RTO/RPO results and close gaps

Own BCDR: keep business continuity / DR plans current, run tabletop and technical recovery drills, track follow-ups to done

Protect production uptime: monitoring, health checks, capacity, incident response, and postmortems

Keep Grafana dashboards and alerts useful—accurate views of production, less noise, faster debugging

Automate secrets management and rotation; remove long-lived / hardcoded credentials from repos and hosts

Improve infra-as-code and environment consistency (Terraform/OpenTofu, Docker, cloud resources)

Support compliance operations (SOC2 / healthcare-adjacent): evidence, access reviews, audit trails, control remediations

Partner with engineering on PostgreSQL operational work across environments (backup/restore, migration coordination, availability)

Must-have experience

Terraform or OpenTofu in production

Docker (and Compose) day-to-day

CI/CD ownership with GitHub Actions (or similar)

Strong PostgreSQL operations: backup/restore, basic HA, migration coordination—not just SQL queries

Observability ownership with Grafana + Prometheus/Loki (or equivalent)

Real BCDR / DR drill experience (not docs-only)

Secrets managers and rotation automation (Vault, Infisical, cloud secret managers, etc.)

Incident response and clear runbook writing

Comfort scripting ops automation (Bash, Python, or JS/TS)

Nice to have

PaaS / container-host operations (any modern app platform like Fly.io)

AWS security & compliance services (IAM, CloudTrail, GuardDuty, Config, SES)

SOC2 or HIPAA-adjacent operational experience
