LastPass is looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer:

As a Senior DevOps Engineer, you will focus on Kubernetes operations to design, build, and maintain cloud-native infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code, following GitOps principles and tools. You will orchestrate scalable containerized applications, streamline cluster operations, and ensure high availability through automated deployments and comprehensive observability across our infrastructure.

If you are passionate about complex problem solving and motivated by scale, then this is the role for you!

Who will you work with?

You will be part of a dedicated team within the vibrant, fast-paced environment of LastPass, where your contributions will play a key role in shaping future infrastructure, enabling seamless application delivery, and promoting DevOps best practices across the organization. Leveraging your technical expertise, you will help generate innovative ideas and provide guidance to both your team and other engineering groups to ensure smooth, efficient operations. You will collaborate closely with architecture and security teams to help ensure our services remain secure, reliable, maintainable, and scalable.

What are some of the exciting challenges you will be working on?

• Design and maintain Kubernetes clusters across all environments.
• Drive standardization and automation of build and deployment processes.
• Monitor system health and infrastructure performance.
• Automate infrastructure provisioning using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools.
• Collaborate with product development teams to streamline application delivery and promote DevOps best practices.
• Lead or support the migration of non-cloud-native applications to new infrastructure, including readiness assessments and implementation of best practices for scalability and maintainability.
• Strengthen the security and compliance posture of the infrastructure.
• Troubleshoot complex issues across the stack (e.g., networking, deployments, storage).
• Participate in on-call rotations and contribute to incident response and root cause analysis.

What does it take to work at LastPass?

• Kubernetes Mastery:
  • Cluster Architecture & Operations– Design and maintain multi-node clusters with a focus on performance, scalability, and fault tolerance.
  • Service Mesh & Network Policies– Proficient in service mesh technologies to manage observability, security, and traffic routing between services.
  • Auto-scaling & Workload Optimization– Implement horizontal and vertical auto-scaling; optimize resource requests and limits for cost-efficiency and stability.
  • Disaster Recovery & Upgrades– Plan and execute rolling upgrades for clusters and workloads with zero downtime; maintain robust disaster recovery playbooks.
• Cloud-Native Fluency– Comfortable working with AWS (preferred) or another major cloud provider.
• Migration Strategist– Assess application readiness and develop migration strategies that minimize disruption during transitions.
• Automation Enthusiast– Maintain an automation-first mindset to eliminate repetitive tasks.
• Observability & Reliability– Use observability tools (e.g., DataDog) to ensure high uptime and rapid issue resolution.
• Problem-Solving– Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills.
• Team Collaboration– A collaborative, team-oriented approach with a proactive, solution-driven mindset.
• Communication Skills– Effectively communicate with stakeholders from diverse backgrounds and varying technical expertise across LastPass.
• Language Proficiency– Strong written and verbal communication skills in English.

It's great, but not required:

• Experience with multiple Infrastructure as Code (IaC) languages, such as CDK with TypeScript and CloudFormation.
• Familiarity with GitOps practices; experience with ArgoCD.
• Multi-cloud experience (AWS preferred; Azure is a plus).
