Strong background in platform / DevOps engineering for complex distributed systems.
Deep understanding of infrastructure components: compute, networking, storage, DNS, certificates, load balancing, and how they interact.
Deep knowledge of Kubernetes (cluster operations, upgrades, scaling, security, ingress, RBAC).
Experience with Docker/containerization in production.
Solid experience with at least one major cloud provider (Azure preferred; AWS or GCP a plus).
Comfort working in hybrid environments (cloud + on‑prem).
Strong experience designing and running CI/CD pipelines.
Hands‑on with GitHub Actions and self‑hosted runners (including scaling and security).
Proficiency with IaC tools (Terraform, Crossplane, Helm, etc.).
Strong scripting/coding skills (e.g., Python, Go, Bash, PowerShell) to automate complex operational workflows.
Experience with tools like Ansible, Chef, or similar for configuration management and automation.
Experience with Prometheus, Grafana and centralized logging stacks (e.g., ELK, Splunk or similar).
Understanding of security best practices across network, infrastructure, and application layers.
Proven experience leading DevOps / platform teams or being a strong technical lead.
Ability to mentor engineers and raise the technical bar for the team.
Strong communication skills, able to translate technical constraints into clear options and decisions for stakeholders.
Strong troubleshooting skills and calm under pressure during incidents.

Responsabilidades

Lead and grow a small DevOps engineering team supporting Unite Services and Unite Integrations.
Drive team planning and execution across operational efficiency, security, reliability, and platform maturity epics (e.g., quarterly OKRs/initiatives).
Provide technical mentorship on Kubernetes, GitHub, CI/CD, and cloud infrastructure.
Collaborate closely with Engineering, SRE, Security, and Ops on roadmap, incident resolution, and cross-team initiatives.
Own the operational health of Unite Services and Unite Integrations: Lead production deployments and release processes for backend services (e.g., Unite Notifications, integrations platform, Salesforce-related services).
Oversee multi-environment support (DEV/QA/PROD and special environments like RTE).
Operate and evolve Kubernetes clusters (cloud and on‑prem).
Manage supporting infrastructure for Unite platforms: Redis, Consul, Harbor, Chart Museum, API gateways, message queues (e.g., RabbitMQ).
Lead migration and consolidation of repos and pipelines to GitHub (from TFS/Azure DevOps and others).
Introduce and maintain GitOps practices for infrastructure and application deployments.
Drive security initiative epics (e.g., Ransomware preparedness, vulnerability remediation like Redis Lua RCE, tagging in Qualys/CrowdStrike).
Own observability for Unite Services and Unite Integrations: Metrics, logs, traces (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, etc.).
Create and maintain detailed runbooks and recovery procedures, especially for disaster recovery and ransomware scenarios.
Produce and maintain clear, actionable documentation: Infrastructure design and configuration, CI/CD and GitOps processes, recovery and maintenance procedures.
