About the Role
We’re looking for a skilled DevOps Software Engineer who will take full ownership of the DevOps and infrastructure layer for a growing suite of modern internal tools, web applications, and backend services. You’ll build everything from scratch — defining architecture, making key technology decisions, and delivering robust, scalable, high-performance infrastructure and deployment pipelines across multiple projects. This is a true greenfield opportunity with no legacy code to maintain. You’ll have significant autonomy to shape reliable, automated systems while collaborating closely with a strong Python backend team (already building robust APIs), product stakeholders, and internal sysadmins in a self-hosted, Linux-first environment.

• Design and build scalable, performant, secure, and maintainable infrastructure and deployment pipelines for a growing set of internal tools and applications.
• Define architecture for CI/CD, infrastructure-as-code, monitoring, logging, and data strategies that support multiple projects.
• Partner closely with the Python backend team and frontend engineers to create seamless, automated, API-driven experiences from development to production.
• Ensure high quality through testing (unit, integration, E2E), optimization, security best practices, and excellent developer experience.
• Manage and evolve CI/CD pipelines in GitLab, Dockerize applications, and implement smooth, repeatable deployments.
• Explore and introduce modern DevOps technologies, automation tools, and observability solutions where they provide clear value.
