  • Build and refine CI/CD methodologies, observability stacks, and IaC tools to ensure seamless deployments and real-time insights.
  • Champion technical excellence and be the technical authority, guiding your team and customers in navigating complex technical scenarios.
  • Partner with cross-functional teams (Account Managers, Engineers, and Leadership) to ensure high-impact, value-driven outcomes.


What We're Looking For:


  • 5+ years of experience as a hands-on DevOps Engineer in production environments.
  • At least 1 year of experience leading DevOps teams as a manager or team lead.
  • Proven experience with AWS infrastructure, Kubernetes, and IaC Tools (e.g, Terraform, Helm).

  • Proficient in Python or JavaScript (or equivalent) at a scripting level.
  • Familiarity with tools like Cursor, Windsurf, and Aider.
