Job summary

Barrierbreak Solutions is seeking a DevOps/Platform Engineer to own the end-to-end stack of a self-hosted cloud platform. You will manage compute, networking, DNS, TLS, storage, and containers, ensuring stability, boring deploys, and robust monitoring and recovery.

You will work with Docker-based services, implement CI/CD pipelines, and enforce security, backups, and cost controls across environments. A strong emphasis on reproducible, on-prem-like infrastructure is required.

Qualifications

• 3+ years running production Linux systems.
• Hands-on experience with at least one major cloud provider.
• Strong Docker fundamentals: images, layers, networking, volumes, Compose, debugging.

Responsibilities

• Own cloud infrastructure across providers: compute, networking, DNS, TLS, storage and volumes.
• Manage container layer: service definitions, resource limits, healthchecks, zero-downtime deploys, rollbacks.
• Handle reverse proxy and ingress, certificate automation, rate limiting.

Job description

About the role:

We run our product on self-managed cloud infrastructure. Services are containerized and orchestrated through a lightweight self-hosted deployment platform on top of Docker no managed Kubernetes, no heavy cloud abstraction layer.

You would own this stack end to end: keeping it stable, making deploys boring, and building the monitoring and recovery story that a fully managed platform would otherwise hand us.

This suits someone who likes owning real infrastructure rather than configuring someone else's control plane.

What you'll own:

• Cloud infrastructure across providers: compute, networking, firewalls, DNS, TLS, storage and volumes


• The container layer: service definitions, resource limits, healthchecks, zero-downtime deploys, rollbacks


• Reverse proxy and ingress, routing, certificate automation, rate limiting


• CI/CD from commit to production, including image builds and registry management


• Observability: metrics, logs, traces, dashboards and alerts that page someone only when it matters


• Backups and disaster recovery, including tested restores of databases and persistent volumes a backup nobody has restored is not a backup


• Secrets management and environment configuration across environments


• Security hardening: OS patching, access policy, least-privilege, container image hygiene, CVE triage


• Capacity planning and cloud cost control


• Incident response, postmortems, and the runbooks that keep the next incident shorter

What we're looking for

• 3+ years running production Linux systems, comfortable without a managed platform underneath you


• Hands-on experience with at least one major cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure, DigitalOcean, Hetzner, OVH or similar) and the ability to work across others


• Strong Docker fundamentals: images, layers, networking, volumes, Compose, resource constraints, debugging a container that won't start


• Production experience with a reverse proxy (Traefik, nginx or Caddy) including TLS and automated certificate renewal


• CI/CD experience (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI or similar) with real build and deploy pipelines, not just lint jobs


• Monitoring and logging in practice: Prometheus/Grafana, Loki/ELK, OpenTelemetry or equivalents, plus the judgement to know what's worth alerting on


• Database operations: backups, point-in-time recovery, upgrades, connection pooling, basic query troubleshooting


• Scripting in Bash and Python or Go


• Infrastructure as code (Terraform, Ansible or Pulumi) and a bias toward reproducible setups over hand-tuned servers


• Networking literacy: DNS, TCP/IP, HTTP, private networking, VPN, firewall rules

Nice to have

• Self-hosted PaaS experience (Dokploy, Coolify, CapRover or similar)


• Docker Swarm, or Kubernetes experience alongside an honest view of when it's overkill


• Multi-cloud or migration experience, including moving workloads between providers


• Familiarity with our application stack, so you can debug with the developers rather than around them


• Experience in an on-call rotation
