The position offers an opportunity to solve challenging infrastructure problems while building production-grade solutions used by millions of users worldwide.
If you enjoy automation, technical leadership, and turning complex operational challenges into scalable systems, this role offers meaningful scope and impact.

• Design, implement, and maintain scalable cloud infrastructure using Infrastructure-as-Code principles and modern automation practices.
• Build, deploy, and manage containerized applications and highly available Kubernetes environments, with a particular focus on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE).
• Develop, maintain, and continuously improve CI/CD pipelines using tools such as ArgoCD, GitHub Actions, and Jenkins to enable reliable and efficient deployments.
• Automate infrastructure and IT operations to reduce manual effort, improve system reliability, strengthen security, and enhance the overall developer experience.
• Explore and integrate AI-powered tools and capabilities to improve operational efficiency, security, monitoring, maintenance, and predictive capabilities.
• Establish and improve infrastructure standards, engineering practices, and technical roadmaps across a distributed, multi-region environment.
• Troubleshoot complex production issues and optimize the performance and reliability of high-traffic Linux-based services.
• Collaborate closely with engineering and technology teams to translate infrastructure needs into scalable, secure, and maintainable solutions.
• Contribute to observability practices covering logging, metrics, monitoring, and alerting to improve visibility into production systems.
• Take ownership of technical initiatives from conception through implementation while promoting continuous improvement and operational excellence.

Requirements:

• Strong professional experience in DevOps, Developer Operations, Site Reliability Engineering, or a closely related infrastructure engineering discipline.
• Deep expertise with Kubernetes and containerization technologies, ideally including Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE).
• Proven experience with Infrastructure-as-Code tools such as Terraform and Ansible.
• Strong understanding of CI/CD methodologies and hands-on experience with tools such as ArgoCD, GitHub Actions, and Jenkins.
• Solid experience working with one or more major cloud platforms, including GCP, AWS, or Azure.
• Ability to write high-quality, production-ready code in Python, Golang, or similar languages for automation and service development.
• Experience with modern observability practices, including centralized logging, metrics, monitoring, and alerting; familiarity with tools such as Elastic Stack and Prometheus/Grafana is an asset.
• Strong troubleshooting and performance-optimization skills in complex, high-volume Linux production environments.
• Experience with cloud-native services and infrastructure automation for SQL and/or NoSQL databases is an advantage.
• Experience developing or integrating AI/ML tooling is a plus.
• Strong ownership mindset with the ability to define and execute technical roadmaps and initiatives.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively across distributed, multi-region teams.
• Professional proficiency in English is required for regular written and verbal communication with globally distributed colleagues and partners.
• Ability to work independently, manage competing priorities, and remain hands-on while contributing to broader technical strategy.
