Senior DevOps Engineer

A startup in the Endpoint Security space is looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to join a hands-on role with broad ownership over the company’s DevOps domain.

We’re looking for someone who can take true ownership of the area: deeply understand the existing infrastructure, identify what needs to change, set priorities, and lead projects end-to-end. The company already has an active production environment, but there is plenty of room for building, refactoring, and improving, with a high degree of professional freedom and direct impact on how the infrastructure evolves.

What will you do?

• Take professional ownership of the DevOps domain and work directly with the development leadership
• Own the company’s AWS environment and Production infrastructure
• Work extensively with Kubernetes, ArgoCD, and GitOps
• Build and manage infrastructure using Terraform or a similar IaC tool
• Build and improve CI/CD processes using GitHub Actions
• Own Monitoring, Observability, Dashboards, and Alerting
• Work with Kafka and RDS in a Production environment
• Evaluate and improve the existing architecture, including refactoring infrastructure that no longer meets the company’s needs
• Build tools and infrastructure that improve Developer Experience and enable development teams to work more independently and efficiently
• Set up and manage cloud-based development environments
• Own Self-hosted infrastructure used for CI processes
• Take part in building a BYOC solution, enabling parts of the system to run in the customer’s cloud environment
• Participate in an On-call rotation with one additional team member. Most application-level alerts are handled by the development teams, so this is a relatively light on-call rotation

Must-have requirements

• 5+ years of experience in DevOps, Infrastructure, or SRE
• Deep hands-on experience with AWS and broad knowledge of cloud services
• Significant experience with Kubernetes in a Production environment
• Experience with ArgoCD and GitOps
• Experience building CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions
• Experience with Terraform or a similar Infrastructure as Code tool
• Significant experience with Monitoring and Observability
• Experience working with Kafka in Production - mandatory
• Experience with AWS RDS
• Experience leading projects and infrastructure initiatives end-to-end
• Ability to work independently, make decisions, and build a roadmap
• Strong technical depth, sharp problem-solving skills, and the ability to quickly learn new technologies and domains

Significant advantages

• Experience building infrastructure or systems from scratch
• Experience in a startup or a small DevOps team with broad responsibilities
• Previous experience as a Team Lead, Tech Lead, or in a technical leadership role
• Previous software development experience
• Experience in a cybersecurity company and familiarity with Security and SecOps
• Experience with ClickHouse
• Experience with data-driven products
• Experience with GCP / Azure
• Experience with BYOC products
• Experience managing Self-hosted environments
