Job description

Lyzr, in a minute

Lyzr is an enterprise software company that helps large organisations put AI agents — software that handles real tasks on its own to work in their everyday operations. Most companies’ AI projects never move past the pilot stage; Lyzr provides the platform that takes them into dependable, day-to-day use. Today, 500+ enterprises build on Lyzr, more than 1,000 agents run live in production, and 85% of Lyzr projects reach production against an industry average of roughly 30%. Customers include Accenture, WTW, Hitachi, and Verifone, and the company recently raised $100M at a $500M valuation.

Our Presales team is where enterprise leaders decide that AI agents are worth serious investment. This role shapes that decision.

About The Role

Most DevOps roles focus on tools and pipelines.

This one focuses on building the infrastructure platform itself.

You’ll design and own a multi-cloud foundation—infrastructure as code, secure networking, CI/CD, and automation that teams can rely on without thinking twice. The goal is simple: systems that scale cleanly, fail predictably, and stay secure by default.

If clean Terraform matters to you, manual console fixes make you uncomfortable, and you believe infrastructure should be reusable, observable, and boring in production — we’d love to hear from you.

What You’ll Own

• Architect and maintain production-grade IaC using Terraform (multi-cloud) and CloudFormation (AWS)
• Build reusable, versioned IaC modules to standardize environments
• Automate provisioning, configuration, and drift detection
• Operate and optimize AWS & Azure production environments
• Design secure cross-cloud & on-prem networking
• Embed security by design (IAM, VPCs, endpoints, secrets)
• Build and own CI/CD pipelines end to end
• Debug real cloud failures — builds, deploys, networking, permissions
• Improve developer experience via faster builds and self-service deploys

Must-Have Skills

• Minimum 6 years of Hands-on expeirence in AWS + Azure production experience
• Terraform mastery (state, modules, providers)
• Strong CloudFormation
• Automation scripting: Python / Bash / PowerShell
• CI/CD systems (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, Azure DevOps)
• Release strategies: Blue-Green, Canary

Nice to Have

• Kubernetes (EKS / AKS)
• Secrets & key management (KMS, Key Vault, Vault)
• Config management (Ansible, Chef, Puppet)
• Terraform / AWS / Azure certifications
• Exposure to GCP or OCI (or strong willingness to learn)

How You Work

• You’re tool-agnostic — best tool wins
• You've learned new clouds fast and enjoy it
• You debug deeply, not superficially
• You own infra from commit to production
• You’re flexible across IST / GMT / EST time zones
• You help the team when things are on fire
