Job description

Duetto Research is hiring a remote candidate for Senior DevOps Engineer (AWS). This is a full time position. Work location: UK, Spain. The role typically involves technologies such as JavaScript, SQL, MongoDB, Terraform, CI/CD, Python. Thousands of hotels, resorts, and casinos around the world depend on Duetto’s platform to run their revenue strategy — and you’ll be one of the people making sure it never lets them down. As a Senior DevOps Engineer, you’ll own the infrastructure that powers our global SaaS platform: designing for scale, building for reliability, and driving the kind of security‑first culture that keeps us ahead of the curve. If you thrive in complex cloud environments, love solving hard problems, and want your work to have real, tangible impact — this is the role.

What you’ll be doing

• Design and implement robust, scalable AWS infrastructure — supporting key system migrations, platform growth, and the reliability our customers depend on.
• Own the reliability, performance, and security of our production environment: high uptime, rapid incident resolution, and proactive capacity planning.
• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines, deployment automation, and infrastructure-as-code using Terraform, Terragrunt, and Chef.
• Monitor system health using enterprise observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, DataDog), defining metrics and response playbooks that get ahead of incidents before they happen.
• Lead security‑first practices across the infrastructure estate — proactively addressing vulnerabilities and driving SOC 2 compliance.
• Partner with engineering teams to integrate operational requirements into the development lifecycle and align on architecture decisions.
• Champion AI adoption within DevOps and SRE workflows, evaluating tooling that increases team velocity and reduces toil.
• Respond to on‑call incidents with urgency — troubleshoot complex issues, lead detailed root cause analyses, and implement fixes that prevent recurrence.

What we’re looking for

You may be a great fit if you have:

• 5+ years in a DevOps, SRE, or infrastructure engineering role.
• Hands‑on AWS experience across IAM, VPC, EC2, ELB, RDS, S3, Lambda, API Gateway, Secrets Manager, KMS, CloudWatch, and CloudTrail — including multi‑account management and SSO.
• Proficiency with Terraform for infrastructure‑as‑code, plus experience with configuration management tools like Chef or Ansible.
• Experience with CI/CD tooling including GitHub, GitHub Actions, JFrog Artifactory, and Jenkins, with familiarity with GitOps methodologies.
• Experience with container and orchestration technologies — Docker, ECS, or EKS.
• Strong working knowledge of enterprise monitoring platforms — Prometheus, Grafana, or DataDog.
• Solid troubleshooting skills and a track record of leading root cause analyses and implementing durable fixes.
• Proficiency reading Java, Ruby, Bash/Zsh, HCL, Python, and JavaScript.
• Experience with SOC 2 compliance and security‑first infrastructure practices.
• Comfort with a weekly on‑call rotation.

Strong candidates may also have:

• Experience migrating workloads from on‑prem or colocation environments to AWS.
• Familiarity with Windows Server, SQL Server, IIS, and .NET environments.
• Experience administering and synchronising MongoDB replica sets.
• Knowledge of ISO 27001, Layer 7 load balancing, or Terragrunt.
• Background in hospitality technology.
