Senior DevOps Engineer

About the role

We are looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to join our Cloud Engineering team. The role covers the full scope of day-to-day infrastructure operations - Kubernetes, CI/CD, databases, observability, and networking - while also contributing to a new direction we are actively building: AI Operations. You will work in a real production environment of a growing fintech company. AI Operations does not mean adding an LLM plugin to a pipeline. It means thoughtfully automating what is currently done by hand: infrastructure change reviews, runbook generation, anomaly detection in deployments, and tooling for the AI services our product teams are building. Tech Stack: AWS - GCP - Terraform - Kubernetes - EKS - Karpenter - Helm - GitLab CI/CD - ArgoCD - VictoriaMetrics - Grafana - Prometheus - ELK / OpenSearch - Jaeger - Istio - PostgreSQL / Aurora - Redis - MongoDB - Kafka - Python - Go - Bash - Ansible - Cloudflare. Kubernetes & Platform Maintain and upgrade Managed EKS clusters, develop and maintain Helm charts, CRDs, and Kubernetes operators. Administer Istio service mesh and participate in resilience testing, including chaos tests as part of DORA compliance. CI/CD & Automation Own and develop CI/CD pipelines in GitLab and manage GitOps workflows via ArgoCD. Write automation and tooling in Python, Go, and Bash. Reliability & Observability Operate AWS Aurora PostgreSQL/RDS, AWS Managed Redis, Atlas MongoDB, and Kafka clusters, with monitoring, tested backup strategies, and documented recovery procedures. Maintain the observability stack - VictoriaMetrics, Grafana, Prometheus, centralized logging via ELK/OpenSearch, and distributed tracing (Jaeger, APM, OpenTelemetry). AI Operations Integrate LLM-based tooling into CI/CD for automated review of infrastructure changes, runbook generation, and deployment anomaly detection. Build and support infrastructure for internal AI services and agent workflows, including management of LLM gateways, model proxies, and cost allocation across teams. 5+ years of hands-on experience in Cloud / DevOps / SRE, including designing complex, scalable high-load services. Strong command of Linux systems and a good understanding of networking basics. Production Kubernetes experience (EKS preferred), with AWS as primary cloud provider; GCP is a plus. GitLab CI/CD: writing pipelines, managing runners, troubleshooting; Helm: authoring and maintaining charts. Terraform for infrastructure as code (Pulumi is a plus). PostgreSQL / Aurora: administration, monitoring, and replication concepts. Python or Go for scripting and automation, plus Shell/Bash scripting. Comfortable communicating clearly in English, both written and spoken. Nice to Have: Experience developing Kubernetes operators and working with Karpenter, ArgoCD, and Istio (traffic policies, service mesh concepts). Production experience with Kafka, Redis, MongoDB, or Elasticsearch, and familiarity with VictoriaMetrics/pgwatch. Hands-on experience with LLM APIs or AI agent infrastructure. Understanding of DORA requirements and resilience testing practices. We have a hybrid model in our Limassol office, or fully remote outside office locations. We support relocation to Cyprus (visa, package) when needed. Competitive senior-level compensation, reflecting the seniority and impact of the role (depending on location). Learning & development budget to support your professional growth. Fully paid vacation and sick leave. Sports compensation. Real growth prospects, significant responsibility, and the ability to make an immediate impact from day one. Enhance your expertise and shape the future of FinTech. Join Vivid's talented team and help us revolutionize how businesses think about their finances! Final compensation is determined individually, based on your experience, skills and the scope of the role, assessed against objective, gender-neutral criteria.
