Job description

Junior DevOps Engineer

Company: OurBus Location: [Delhi / Hybrid] Experience: 1-2 years Employment Type: Full-time Department: Tech

About OurBus

OurBus is a technology company transforming intercity bus travel. Our platform powers route planning, ticketing, live tracking, and day-to-day operations for buses moving thousands of riders - along with Rally, our group-travel and charter platform. Together, OurBus, Rally, and Charters move [millions of] riders, help bus operators grow their businesses with modern technology, and take cars off the road - making every trip a more sustainable one.

We are a lean, fast-moving team where engineers get real ownership, ship quickly, and see their work in the hands of riders the same week. Behind the scenes, all of this runs on a modern, cloud-native platform - services on AWS and Kubernetes, real-time tracking and data pipelines, and a deep observability stack - that must stay fast, reliable, and cost-efficient around the clock. That is where you come in.

About the Role

We are looking for a Junior DevOps Engineer with 1-2 years of hands-on experience to join our tech team. This is a hands-on, operations-focused role. Your day-to-day will centre on four areas:

Key Responsibilities

Primary Focus

• Author, schedule, and operate AZDO CI/CD and Apache Airflow DAGs powering data, cost-reporting, and operational pipelines - handle failures, backfills, dependencies, and performance tuning.
• Own infrastructure monitoring and alerting : Prometheus and Grafana dashboards, OpenTelemetry instrumentation, and centralized logging on the ELK stack - including ECK (Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes) and Fluent Bit log shipping into Kibana. Triage alerts and drive them to resolution.
• Perform day-to-day database administration for MySQL and PostgreSQL - access and user management, backups and restore verification, replication and storage health, slow-query analysis - and operate the supporting Redis and Kafka infrastructure.
• Run the companys IT and support workflows for incidents and bugs: triage requests from tech and business teams, debug across application, infrastructure, and data layers, handle access and permission requests, and close the loop with RCAs, runbooks, and KT documentation.
• Participate in the on-call rotation and incident response.

Broader Platform Work

• Provision, manage, and improve AWS infrastructure (EC2, VPC, EKS, RDS, ElastiCache, S3, SQS, Lambda, IAM) using CloudFormation and Terraform.
• Maintain and troubleshoot CI/CD pipelines in Azure DevOps and Jenkins for Java, .NET Core, Flutter, and Python services.
• Operate containerized workloads on Kubernetes (EKS) - Helm charts, node groups, autoscaling, upgrades, and day-to-day troubleshooting.
• Manage DNS, CDN, WAF, and caching rules via Cloudflare.
• Automate routine operations with Python and Bash contribute to security patching, backup/DR verification, and cloud cost-optimization initiatives.

Must-Have Skills

• 1-2 years of experience in a DevOps, SRE, cloud, or platform engineering role.
• Monitoring and logging with Prometheus/Grafana and ELK/Kibana, including ECK and Fluent Bit log pipelines.
• Database administration of MySQL and PostgreSQL - backups, access management, and query troubleshooting.
• Operating Redis and Kafka in production.
• Hands-on experience with core AWS services and cloud networking fundamentals.
• Infrastructure as Code with Terraform and/or CloudFormation.
• Working knowledge of Docker and Kubernetes, including Helm chart authoring and customization.
• Experience building or maintaining CI/CD pipelines ( Jenkins, Azure DevOps, or similar).
• Cloudflare administration and Provisioning Using Terraform (DNS, WAF, caching, rules).
• Solid scripting in Python, PowerShell and Bash comfortable administering Linux systems.
• Exposure to Java and .NET Core build and deployment ecosystems.
• Proficient with Git-based workflows, code reviews, and working a ticket/incident queue.

Good to Have

• Certifications: AWS Associate Solutions Architect / SysOps, or CKA.
• Experience with cloud cost-reporting and optimization tooling.
• Distributed tracing / telemetry with OpenTelemetry.
• Experience with AI/ML workflows and dataflows - eg, orchestrating training or inference pipelines.
• Python development beyond ops scripting - able to write Python-based AI/ML model integrations (working with model APIs and SDKs, and wiring inference into services and Airflow pipelines).

Who You Are

• Curious and eager to learn - you dig into unfamiliar systems rather than around them.
• Calm and methodical during incidents, and thorough in RCA afterward.
• Service-minded - you treat internal support requests and bug reports with the same rigor as production incidents.
• A clear communicator who documents what they build and shares knowledge with the team.
• Someone who takes ownership of problems end to end, even at the junior level.

What We Offer

• A high-ownership role with direct exposure to a full modern DevOps stack.
• Mentorship from senior engineers, structured KT sessions, and room to grow into SRE/platform specializations.
