Middle/Senior DevOps Engineer

We are seeking an experienced DevOps Engineer to make the path of code, from a developer's mind to our customers, as fast, secure, and efficient as possible. You will be the architect of the "software delivery highway" for a project that deploys FE & BE code to Kubernetes, using Postgres and S3 resources hosted in AWS. The code repository is
hosted in Bitbucket, where the existing (inadequate) CI/CD pipelines run. The application is currently hosted on Vercel and we intend to migrate the runtime to Kubernetes.
