Senior DevOps

We are looking for a highly autonomous Senior DevOps Engineer to join a cloud platform team and take ownership of critical infrastructure, automation, and deployment initiatives. This role goes beyond traditional infrastructure support and requires an engineer who can independently identify challenges, propose solutions, and drive projects from idea to production deployment.

You will work closely with development teams, contribute to platform reliability, developer experience, and operational excellence, helping shape the evolution of a modern cloud-native ecosystem built on AWS ECS Fargate.

Project Responsibilities

• Build and maintain a public API documentation pipeline using a docs-as-code approach, including OpenAPI specification aggregation, validation, bundling, and publishing through reusable GitHub Actions workflows.
• Evaluate, recommend, and implement a public status page solution, including uptime monitoring, alerting policies, and incident management workflows.
• Manage monitoring and alerting infrastructure as code using Terraform while following established engineering standards and best practices.
• Support live production changes within AWS ECS Fargate environments, including service migrations, cluster modifications, load balancer updates, and zero-downtime deployments.
• Extend and integrate CI/CD automation as part of a large-scale migration from CircleCI to GitHub Actions.
• Collaborate closely with software engineers and stakeholders, providing technical leadership and guidance throughout project delivery.
• Own projects end-to-end, from problem analysis and architecture decisions to implementation, deployment, and production support.

Requirements

• 7+ years of experience in DevOps, Platform Engineering, or SRE roles.
• Deep expertise with AWS and ECS Fargate, including:
  • Service Connect
  • Service Discovery
  • Graviton and multi-architecture builds
  • Cluster architecture and scaling
  • ALB and NLB configuration
  • Target group management
  • Deployment and rollback strategies
• Proven experience performing live production migrations without downtime.
• Strong hands-on experience with GitHub Actions, including reusable workflows, composite actions, and OIDC integration with AWS IAM.
• Solid Terraform experience within established enterprise codebases.
• Experience with New Relic (Synthetics, alert policies, NerdGraph, API/webhooks) or equivalent observability platforms such as Datadog or Grafana.
• Experience building and maintaining OpenAPI-based documentation pipelines and docs-as-code solutions.
• Strong understanding of production reliability, risk mitigation, and operational excellence.
• Ability to independently own and deliver complex technical initiatives.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
• English level: Upper-Intermediate (B2+) or higher.

Nice to Have

• Experience with Stoplight Elements or ReadMe.com.
• Experience with public status page platforms such as Statuspage or Better Stack.
• Experience migrating CI/CD pipelines from CircleCI to GitHub Actions.
• Knowledge of OpenTelemetry.
• Experience with AWS CloudFormation and AWS SAM.
• Experience leveraging AI-assisted engineering workflows while maintaining ownership, validation, and quality of deliverables.

Candidate Profile

The ideal candidate is a proactive and opinionated Senior DevOps Engineer who takes ownership rather than simply executing predefined tasks.

You:

• Think critically about technical trade-offs and confidently recommend solutions, even with incomplete information.
• Can be trusted with production access and high-impact infrastructure changes.
• Demonstrate strong problem-solving abilities and a structured approach to work.
• Are comfortable collaborating with development teams and clearly communicating technical decisions.
• Approach infrastructure challenges with a product mindset and focus on end-user impact.
• Have proven experience delivering solutions collaboratively with engineering teams.

Working Conditions

• Working hours: 09:00–18:00 CET with overlap with US-based teams.
• International work environment.
• Opportunity to work on large-scale cloud infrastructure and automation initiatives.
• Professional growth within a team of experienced engineers and technology leaders.
