About the Role

We are looking for a DevOps Engineer to build and run cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, and observability for Data and AI teams in a PCI‑compliant environment.

Must Haves

• 4+ years of professional DevOps, SRE, or platform‑engineering experience operating production services.
• 3+ years of hands‑on experience building CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI, or CircleCI) and managing infrastructure as code (Terraform, Pulumi, or CloudFormation).
• Working knowledge of Kubernetes (EKS, AKS, or GKE) and container tooling (Docker, Helm, ArgoCD, or Flux).
• Strong scripting skills in Python, Bash, or Go; solid SQL skills and strong comfort with at least one cloud platform (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
• Hands‑on experience with observability stacks: New Relic, Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, ELK, or Datadog.
• Solid understanding of cloud security and compliance practices, particularly in PCI‑compliant or regulated environments.
• Proven ability to work independently and within a team, managing priorities across concurrent projects and time zones, including on‑call rotations.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills; able to work effectively with both technical and non‑technical stakeholders.

Nice to Haves

• Experience operating Dataiku DSS, Snowflake, or other large‑scale data and analytics platforms in production.
• Experience with service meshes (Istio, Linkerd), API gateways, and zero‑trust networking.
• Experience with policy‑as‑code (OPA / Rego, Checkov, tfsec) and supply‑chain security (SBOM, Sigstore).
• Experience with FinOps practices and cloud cost optimization.
• Experience supporting ML or LLM workloads — GPU scheduling, model‑serving infrastructure, vector databases, or LangSmith / Langfuse.
• Experience with database administration / reliability for PostgreSQL, MySQL, or Snowflake.
• Experience in loyalty, martech, adtech, or a comparable data‑rich B2B domain.

What You Will Do

• Strategy, Roadmap & Vision – build the roadmap for DevOps and observability in Data & AI teams.
• Design and build cloud infrastructure as code with Terraform (or Pulumi / CloudFormation), packaging reusable modules for AWS, Azure, or GCP.
• Own CI/CD pipelines in GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or GitLab CI — build, test, security scanning, blue‑green or canary deploys, and automated rollback.
• Operate Kubernetes clusters (EKS, AKS, or GKE) and container workloads with LENS, Helm, ArgoCD, or Flux — including autoscaling, ingress, secrets, and policy.
• Build observability with Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, ELK, or Datadog — metrics, logs, traces, dashboards, and SLO‑driven alerting.
• Implement security and compliance controls: IAM, SSO, secrets management (Vault / KMS), vulnerability scanning, policy‑as‑code (OPA, Checkov), and PCI‑aware patterns.
• Lead incident response — on‑call, runbooks, blameless post‑mortems, and continuous reliability work to drive down MTTR and toil.
• Partner with developers on local dev experience, golden paths, internal platform tooling, and developer self‑service.
• Help shape internal platform standards as the stack evolves, contributing to design reviews and sharing knowledge across the India and U.S. teams.
• Participate in a collaborative DevOps environment, working closely with developers, AI engineers, QA, DBAs, and product partners across environments.

Perks and Benefits

• Professional growth: Mentorship, TechTalks, and personalized growth roadmaps.
• Competitive compensation: USD‑based pay with education, fitness, and team activity budgets.
• Exciting projects: Modern solutions with Fortune 500 and top product companies.
