The Role:

We are looking for a Junior DevOps Engineer to support the development and live operations of an exciting new immersive XR product, built natively with Kotlin.

This is an opportunity to join a world-class engineering team and learn from industry-leading experts in XR and real-time systems. You'll work closely under the guidance of our DevOps Lead, gaining hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, test automation, performance monitoring, and live operations for a fan-facing product.

This is a live product—not content delivery—so automated testing, performance, and reliability are key focuses of the role.

What You'll Do:

• Support and maintain CI/CD pipelines for Kotlin-based XR applications and backend services supplying video and data streams
• Implement and maintain unit tests, integration tests, and automated testing pipelines to ensure product stability
• Assist with cloud infrastructure management (AWS, GCP, or similar)
• Help optimize release processes and contribute to automated deployment workflows
• Support monitoring, logging, and alerting systems to ensure live product performance
• Collaborate with QA and Engineering teams to maintain high-quality builds
• Participate in live operations support, including release readiness and incident response
• Continuously learn and apply best practices in DevOps, testing, and XR infrastructure
  
  

Nice to Have:

• Familiarity with AR/VR/XR application development
• Experience supporting live consumer products
• Experience with gRPC services
• Experience with video streaming technologies
  
  

Why This Role:

You'll have the chance to:

• Learn from experienced DevOps and Engineering leads
• Work on a high-profile immersive product with global visibility
• Gain practical experience in automated testing and CI/CD for cutting-edge XR platforms
• Support a product that delivers real-time fan experiences
• Grow your career in DevOps and XR technologies within a collaborative and supportive team
  
  
  

Requirements

What You Will Bring:

• 1-3 years of experience (or equivalent training) in DevOps, QA Automation, or Software Engineering
• Experience working with Kotlin-based products or Android-based platforms
• Familiarity with CI/CD tools (Bitbucket Pipelines, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI,, Jenkins, or similar)
• Exposure to automated unit testing and integration testing
• Understanding of cloud services (AWS, GCP, or Azure)
• Understanding of web technologies and networking
• Familiarity with containerization (Docker)
• Basic scripting skills (Bash, Python, or similar)
• Strong interest in XR technologies and supporting live immersive experiences
• Eagerness to learn, a collaborative spirit, and attention to detail
