About the Role
This role is for someone who wants to combine deep technical expertise with real product impact.

As a Senior DevOps Engineer, you will help define infrastructure and DevOps practices, contribute to architectural decisions, and ensure high standards of reliability and scalability. You will own infrastructure and delivery processes end-to-end - from understanding system needs to implementation, releases, monitoring, and continuous improvement.

The role does not require close day-to-day collaboration with the product team, but it does require full ownership of infrastructure-related processes and outcomes.

You will work both on improving existing infrastructure, including addressing technical debt, and on building a platform for new product capabilities.

At the current stage, the main focus is on stabilizing and scaling the infrastructure, while gradually improving automation and delivery processes.

Responsibilities:

• Own the DevOps direction and continuously improve the current infrastructure
• Be responsible for monitoring and system recovery when issues occur
• Participate in infrastructure discussions, propose improvements, and contribute to implementation, gradually taking full ownership of the infrastructure
• Document solutions clearly and create reusable guides for repeatable tasks
• Work closely with developers to ensure smooth and reliable production delivery

General requirements:

• 6+ years of experience in IT, including 2–3+ years in DevOps roles
• Background in software development or system administration
• Able to design work before implementation and describe it at a high level in form of tasks
• Able to set expectations and meet them

Core tooling & platform experience:

• Strong hands-on work with AWS and Kubernetes
• Infrastructure as Code using Terraform (preferred), Pulumi, or similar tools
• Building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions or GitLab CI
• GitOps/CD tooling such as ArgoCD
• Observability stacks such as Prometheus and Grafana
• Autoscaling systems and defining meaningful system metrics for performance and scaling
• Serverless architectures (e.g., AWS Lambda)

Systems & infrastructure knowledge

Strong understanding of the following areas:

• Networking fundamentals: NAT, DNS, SSH, bastion/jump hosts, socks5, vpn
• Linux administration: systemd, logical volumes, shell scripting
• Databases: backup and restore strategies (full/incremental backups, logical and binary dumps, PITR, WAL)
• High availability and disaster recovery concepts: redundancy, replication, scalability, load balancing, SLA, downtime
• Scaling principles: vertical vs horizontal scaling, trade-offs and use cases
• Identity and access management: SSO, SAML

Nice to have:

• Experience in mobile applications submission to google play and appstore. Release management.
• Metrics collection and monitoring in any of metrics aggregation tools: Prometheus/graphana, cloudwatch, azure appinsights.
