Job Description
Role Description
We’re hiring a hands-on senior DevOps engineer to take full ownership of our infrastructure, security posture, and deployment pipelines. This is not a “keep the lights on” role. We need someone who:
- fixes what’s broken
- simplifies what’s overcomplicated
- hardens security
- builds systems we can trust
You’ll work closely with engineering leadership and application developers, and you’ll be expected to operate independently with a high bar for reliability.
Qualifications
- 5+ years of hands-on DevOps / infrastructure experience
- Deep experience with AWS
- Strong experience with Terraform or similar IaC tools
- CI/CD experience (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or similar)
- Experience running production systems with real traffic
- Strong understanding of cloud security best practices
- Comfortable being the sole DevOps owner
Requirements
- Experience with ECS or EKS
- Multi-account AWS setups
- SOC 2 / ISO / PCI exposure
- Production migrations (shared hosting → cloud)
- Experience cleaning up inherited, messy infrastructure
Benefits
- You must overlap meaningfully with US working hours
- You communicate clearly and proactively
- You take ownership - problems don’t linger
- You prefer simple, robust solutions over clever ones
- You are comfortable saying “this is risky” and backing it up
This Role Is Not a Fit If:
- You are part of an agency or want to work part-time
- You need constant direction or ticket-by-ticket management
- You avoid security responsibility
- You’re unavailable during US hours
- You prefer theoretical architecture over practical reliability
