Implement and maintain service configuration and deployment automation across environments (dev/test/stage/prod).
Configure and manage cloud networking and access controls, including Security Groups.
Implement and maintain monitoring/observability capabilities (metrics, logs, traces, dashboards) and establish actionable SLOs/SLIs.
Plan and execute performance testing and scalability validation; partner with engineering to remediate bottlenecks and improve system performance.
Collaborate with engineering, architecture, security, and client stakeholders to triage issues, estimate work, and continuously improve delivery and reliability.

Required skills:

5+ years of hands-on DevOps / Platform / SRE experience supporting production systems.
Strong experience with at least one public cloud provider (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
Demonstrated practical experience with DevOps tools and practices, with a clear focus on production readiness and operations.
Experience designing and operating resilient systems (availability, scalability, fault tolerance).
Strong Infrastructure as Code experience with Terraform, CloudFormation, and/or CDK.
CI/CD experience, including adapting and improving existing pipelines; experience with Argo preferred.
Containerization and orchestration experience with Docker and ECS.
Scripting/automation skills with Python and/or Bash.
Experience with service configuration and deployment automation.
Experience configuring and managing Security Groups and related cloud networking controls.
Hands-on experience with monitoring/observability and performance testing in production-like environments.

Nice to have:

Exposure to multi-account/multi-environment cloud setups and governance.

Our success over the past 20 years is rooted in our exceptional team, which thrives in a culture of collaboration, creativity, and continuous learning.
