Job description

“Why did the microservice get promoted?  

Because it scaled under pressure.”

We are recruiting a seasoned DevOps Engineer for one of our valued clients, an innovative technology company specializing in AI-powered brand safety and contextual intelligence solutions. This role focuses on building and maintaining the robust infrastructure foundation that supports their advanced data analytics and content measurement platforms.

The ideal candidate will design, secure, and optimize the operational systems that enable scalable, high-performance applications. This is a pivotal role for someone passionate about automation, system ownership, and creating resilient infrastructure solutions from the ground up.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design, implement, and maintain secure, scalable cloud infrastructure for high-throughput, low-latency applications (mainly AWS, with flexibility for multi-cloud environments)
  • Develop and enhance CI/CD pipelines for efficient, reliable, and consistent deployment processes (GitHub Actions and similar tools)
  • Continuously identify and implement infrastructure improvements across the entire product ecosystem
  • Architect and support serverless solutions using AWS Lambda, ECS Fargate, and event-driven architecture components
  • Establish comprehensive monitoring, alerting, and logging frameworks to ensure system reliability and visibility
  • Manage infrastructure-as-code implementations using CloudFormation, Terraform, and related tools
  • Partner with development teams to determine infrastructure requirements, deployment approaches, and operational toolsets
  • Oversee secrets management and identity systems utilizing AWS IAM and similar platforms
  • Maintain compliance with security and privacy standards, including access controls, encryption protocols, and audit mechanisms
  • Resolve production incidents across all service layers with a focus on rapid response and thorough post-incident analysis
  • Create and maintain automated backup, disaster recovery, and failover systems
  • Research and adopt emerging DevOps methodologies and technologies to enhance platform performance and reliability

Required Qualifications

  • 10+ years of software engineering background with 6+ years focused on DevOps, Site Reliability Engineering, or Infrastructure Engineering
  • Demonstrated experience managing production environments with comprehensive infrastructure responsibilities
  • Extensive AWS expertise, including compute, storage, networking, and identity management services
  • Practical experience with serverless technologies (AWS Lambda, Step Functions, EventBridge, API Gateway, ECS Fargate)
  • Advanced skills in Docker and container orchestration platforms (Kubernetes, ECS, GKE)
  • Proficiency with CI/CD platforms such as GitHub Actions, CircleCI, ArgoCD, or Jenkins
  • Strong scripting capabilities in Bash, Python, or Go for automation and tooling development
  • Experience with observability solutions (Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, ELK stack)
  • Solid understanding of network design, security frameworks, and zero-trust access architectures
  • Knowledge of secrets management systems and infrastructure-level access policy enforcement
  • Exceptional troubleshooting and root cause analysis abilities
  • Strong collaborative and communication skills across diverse technical and business teams
  • Continuous improvement mindset with focus on automation, optimization, and security enhancement

This position offers the opportunity to join an early-stage team with proven success in developing cutting-edge contextual intelligence technology, working alongside talented engineers and product leaders who prioritize innovation and measurable client impact.
