• GitOps Platform Ownership: Manage, scale, and optimize our centralized GitOps-driven deployment frameworks, explicitly leveraging tools like ArgoCD and Argo Rollouts.
• Progressive Delivery Engineering: Build and enforce secure, automated canary environments, blue/green traffic splitting logic, dynamic feature flags, and instant telemetry-driven rollbacks.
• Technical Direction Governance: Set cross-team technical guidelines, leading architecture tradeoffs and engineering code reviews that maximize system reliability and runtime developer velocity.
• Internal Tooling Synthesis: Develop, test, and expand custom internal automation tools to accelerate compilation frameworks and local verification environments.
• Observability & Reliability Operations: Uphold rigorous operational excellence standards through deep telemetry monitoring, alerting configurations, and post-incident platform enhancements.
• Engineering Mentorship: Act as an elite technical force multiplier, coaching staff developers and influencing organizational design across multi-functional squads.

Required Skills & Qualifications

• Deep master-level command over container orchestration layers utilizing Kubernetes (K8s) and GitOps automation configurations.
• Proven background designing, tuning, and scaling high-velocity CI/CD systems within large-scale distributed engineering organizations.
• Strong track record turning ambiguous, cross-cutting infrastructure problems into concrete, well-documented technical roadmaps.
• Deep conceptual and operational knowledge of major cloud infrastructure providers (specifically AWS), containerization tools (Docker), and distributed microservices parameters.
• Hands-on operational fluency writing Infrastructure as Code (IaC) utilizing declarative platforms such as Terraform or Pulumi.
• Business-level English fluency to read, write, and present architectural design arguments comfortably to cross-functional stakeholders.
• Location Context: 100% remote-first working infrastructure and flexible task tracking open to qualified engineering leaders based within Argentina.

Preferred Strategic Indicators (Nice to Have)

• An undergraduate BS/BA degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or an equivalent technical field of quantitative practice.
• Proactive curiosity and technical fluency adopting AI-assisted code tools or agentic development assistant loops to optimize system automation workflows.

What We Offer

• Corporate Equity: Generous equity allocation via Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) in a hyper-growth, privately held market leader.
• Comprehensive health coverage with premium medical, dental, and vision insurance policies for employees and eligible dependents (with Webflow funding the vast majority of premiums).
