Role overview

We are hiring a DevOps Engineer to build and run our cloud platform, primarily on AWS with workloads on GCP. You will own infrastructure as code, Kubernetes on Amazon EKS, networking, security and cost, and keep production reliable across multiple accounts and regions.

Key responsibilities

• Design, deploy and manage AWS infrastructure across multiple accounts and regions, and support workloads running on GCP.
• Build, upgrade and operate Amazon EKS clusters across dev, stage, QA and production environments.
• Write, maintain and review Terraform modules for repeatable, version-controlled infrastructure provisioning.
• Manage AWS networking, including VPCs, subnets, Transit Gateways, NAT Gateways, VPC endpoints, VPC peering and hybrid connectivity.
• Implement IAM best practices: least-privilege policies, cross-account roles and EKS Pod Identity.
• Drive cloud cost optimization through right-sizing, Savings Plans and Reserved Instances, load balancer consolidation, and reduced NAT and data transfer costs.
• Set up monitoring, logging and alerting with CloudWatch, Datadog, CloudTrail and GuardDuty.
• Automate build and deployment workflows with CI/CD pipelines in GitLab CI and Jenkins.
• Take part in incident response, on-call rotation and production troubleshooting, including post-incident reviews.

• Solid Kubernetes fundamentals: deployments, services, ingress, autoscaling, Helm charts and troubleshooting workloads.
• Deep knowledge of AWS networking: VPC design, subnets, route tables, Transit Gateway, NAT Gateway, VPC endpoints, peering, and VPN or Direct Connect.
• Hands-on IAM experience: least-privilege policies, cross-account role assumption, and EKS Pod Identity or IRSA.
• Proven record of reducing cloud spend using right-sizing, Savings Plans, Reserved Instances and data transfer optimization.
• Experience with observability and security tooling: CloudWatch, Datadog, CloudTrail and GuardDuty.
• Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines in GitLab CI and Jenkins.
