Why Work Here

At Tenet3, our employee’s contributions are highly visible, valued, and rewarded. Be part of a team that supports both your personal and professional growth. Our team thrives in a collaborative, growth-oriented environment where we’re continuously pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. If you’re looking to work in a place that combines cutting-edge technology with a strong sense of culture and team spirit, and amazing benefits, then we are the place for you!

The Role

We are seeking an experienced DevOps Engineer with a strong background in Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) and automation to serve as a technical advocate supporting our client's cloud initiatives. This role involves collaborating with development and security teams to build resilient CI/CD pipelines, optimize core cloud network topologies, and maintain proactive observability and alerting tools. You will have the opportunity to leverage your expertise in cloud orchestration, scripting, and access management, working closely with our team to deliver high-impact, secure, and repeatable cloud deployments.

The ideal candidate would be an automation-driven systems thinker who understands that infrastructure is only as reliable as the code that provisions it. This position will bridge the gap between application development and IT operations, ensuring our client's mission-critical systems are secure, scalable, and highly available.

Essential Responsibilities

• Develop, maintain, and optimize infrastructure-as-code (IaC) for repeatable and secure cloud deployments
• Build, maintain, and refactor CI/CD pipelines to accelerate feature delivery, minimize risk, and reduce technical debt
• Configure and manage observability tools, dashboards, and proactive alerting to detect and resolve issues
• Respond to production issues, perform root cause analysis, and contribute to incident postmortems
• Collaborate with development teams to align infrastructure design with application requirements
• Document technical designs, runbooks, and standard operating procedures to ensure team alignment
• Participate in sprint planning and advocate for automation opportunities to improve operational efficiency
• Utilize Cloud & DevOps Skills to:
  • Design, provision, and maintain core cloud network topologies and troubleshoot connectivity across multi-environment setups
  • Enhance secrets management, access controls, and audit IAM roles/policies for least-privilege access in collaboration with security engineers
  • Improve visibility into cloud resource utilization and cost to support budget-aware engineering decisions

Required Skills & Qualifications

• Core Technical Experience: 3-5 years of professional engineering experience in DevOps or Cloud Engineering, with a track record of identifying automation gaps, recommending IaC improvements, and troubleshooting multi-environment or hybrid setups.
• Cloud Infrastructure & IaC: Proficiency in modern IaC and orchestration tools (e.g., Terraform, Kubernetes, Ansible, CloudFormation), with experience managing core cloud network topologies.
• CI/CD & Automation Proficiency: Solid experience with CI/CD systems (e.g., GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD) and strong scripting skills (e.g., Python, Bash) for automating routine tasks and reducing manual toil.
• Observability & Reliability: Hands-on experience with industry-standard observability tools (e.g., CloudWatch, Prometheus, Datadog, Grafana) to develop proactive alerts, metrics, and dashboards.
• Security & Compliance: Experience managing secrets and access using tools like AWS Secrets Manager, Vault, or SSM, with a strong understanding of cloud IAM roles and least-privilege enforcement.
• Technical Communication & Collaboration: Clear communication of infrastructure requirements, risks, and opportunities, with a proven ability to partner effectively with developers and IT to support secure, reliable delivery pipelines.

Education

Bachelor’s degree in computer science, information technology, systems engineering, or a related technical field.

Benefits

• Generous Paid Time Off: Including PTO, sick days, and floating holidays to help you recharge.
• Comprehensive Health Coverage: 100% paid medical, vision, and dental insurance for you and your family.
