About the role
About the Role We're looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to define and execute our infrastructure vision while staying hands-on day to day. You'll be responsible for reliability, scalability, security, and developer productivity across our cloud and CI/CD stack. This role reports to the Head of Engineering and partners closely with Product and Engineering teams to help us ship faster with confidence. What you'll do: Own the DevOps/Platform vision and roadmap: reliability targets, scalability strategy, security posture, and cost-efficiency. Stay hands-on: design, implement, and operate core infrastructure (Kubernetes, cloud networking, CI/CD, observability, secrets management). Build and maintain strong delivery pipelines: CI, CD, environments, release processes, and safe deployment practices (feature flags, rollbacks, progressive delivery). Raise the bar on reliability: SLOs/SLIs, on-call practices, incident response, postmortems, and proactive risk reduction. Drive observability end to end: metrics, logs, traces, alerting quality, and actionable dashboards. Partner with engineering squads to improve developer experience: local/staging parity, tooling, golden paths, documentation, and self-service. Manage cloud cost trade-offs pragmatically, keeping speed and reliability high while controlling spend. What we're looking for: Must Have: 7+ years of experience in DevOps/SRE/Platform roles, including leading a team. Strong experience operating production systems on a major cloud provider (AWS/GCP/Azure). We are using GCP. Deep knowledge of modern infrastructure patterns: containers/Kubernetes, IaC (Terraform), CI/CD, observability, and incident management. Proven ability to set direction and execute hands-on, from design through production operations. Strong communication and prioritization skills, able to align stakeholders and make pragmatic trade-offs. Nice to Have: Experience with high-throughput, real-time, or voice/communications workloads. Strong security engineering instincts (IAM, network segmentation, secrets, vulnerability management). Experience building internal platform products (self-serve deployments, templates, developer portals). FinOps experience (cost attribution, unit economics, capacity planning).
