Senior DevOps Engineer, Applications
Requirements and responsibilities
Readable role content extracted into sections for faster review.
Example Problems You Might Work On:
- Designing and maintaining the Azure infrastructure that runs our gRPC microservices and Next.js web app
- Building observability that gives engineers visibility into service health, latency, and failure modes across a distributed system
- Improving CI/CD pipelines so deployments are fast, safe, and fully automated
- Managing PostgreSQL at scale — backups, failover, migrations, and performance
- Supporting a multi-service migration from a legacy .NET/MSSQL platform to a modern cloud-native stack
- Building developer tooling that reduces friction and keeps the team shipping
What You'll Do:
- Own and evolve Azure infrastructure using Terraform — networking, compute, managed services, and secrets
- Manage Kubernetes clusters and Helm-based deployments for a distributed microservices platform
- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions / Azure DevOps) that keep deployments fast and safe
- Define and improve observability: metrics, logging, alerting, and tracing across services
- Lead incident response — drive resolution, write postmortems, and follow through on reliability improvements
- Manage PostgreSQL infrastructure: backups, replication, failover, and query performance
- Collaborate closely with engineers to improve local development environments and deployment workflows
- Enforce security best practices: secrets management, network policies, access controls, and vulnerability scanning
What We're Looking For
- Solid DevOps or platform engineering experience, typically 5+ years
- Strong hands-on experience with Azure (AKS, Azure AD, managed databases, blob storage, networking)
- Terraform experience — writing, organizing, and maintaining infrastructure as code at scale
- Kubernetes and Helm experience managing production workloads
- Experience building and operating CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, or similar)
- PostgreSQL experience — operational management, migrations, and performance tuning
- Solid understanding of observability tooling (Datadog, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, or equivalent)
- Experience with incident response and driving reliability improvements from postmortems
- Docker and container image management experience
- Familiarity with secrets management tools (Azure Key Vault, Vault, or equivalent)
- Comfortable working in environments where systems and processes are still evolving
How We Build
- Ship practical software that solves real problems
- Favor simple, maintainable architectures
- Work closely across engineering, product, and design
- Use modern cloud infrastructure (AWS / Azure), Terraform, and containerized deployments
- Maintain automated CI/CD pipelines to keep shipping fast and safe
- Leverage AI-assisted development across the engineering workflow
