The Job
As a DevOps Engineer, your main goal is to design, build, and continuously improve repeatable Cloud infrastructure using AI as a core part of how you work. The foundation is solid engineering: you bring strong systems knowledge, automation instincts, and a security- and reliability-first mindset to keep production environments fast, stable, and observable.
What You'll Do
- Implement, configure, manage, and automate cloud infrastructure for multiple projects, using AI tools to accelerate IaC authoring, code review, and documentation
- Work across multiple development teams for planning, build, and release of application environments
- Define, implement, and continuously optimize CI/CD pipelines, leveraging AI to speed up troubleshooting and pipeline iteration
- Boost the performance and reliability of production environments
- Diagnose and resolve production outages, using AI-assisted log analysis and root-cause investigation to cut down response time
- Review, harden, and maintain infrastructure code and automation scripts, both yours and AI-generated
- Continuously evaluate industry and AI-tooling best practices and suggest improvements for the DevOps team
What You Bring To The Team
- +4 years of experience with Linux-based server administration and support (L2/L3) (Debian, Ubuntu, CentOS, etc.)
- 3-4 years of experience programming for infrastructure automation: Shell (Bash), Python, or JS. You understand the logic well enough to read, debug, and extend AI-generated scripts, not just run them
- 2-3 years of experience with a cloud provider: AWS or similar (Azure, GCP, OCI, Digital Ocean, Linode)
- Real, daily experience using AI tools in your DevOps work: infrastructure-as-code generation, log/incident analysis, script writing, and documentation
- Strong troubleshooting and analytical skills. You can validate AI-suggested fixes, spot when a suggestion is subtly wrong, and know when an issue needs deeper structural work rather than a quick patch
- Soft skills to handle pressure during production issues and an automate-everything mindset
- Experience managing IP network protocols and services (DNS + domain management, HTTP(S), SSH, SMTP, etc.)
- Experience with network troubleshooting tools (e.g., Nmap, ping, ip, netstat, traceroute)
- Experience with configuration management and infrastructure provisioning tools such as Terraform, including reviewing and refining AI-generated modules
- Hands-on AWS experience: EC2, EBS, AMI, Application Load Balancer, Target Group, RDS, ElastiCache, S3, Route 53, NAT Gateways, VPC Networking, CloudWatch
- Able to deploy and maintain Ruby on Rails web applications in production (Laravel is a plus)
- Experience with CI/CD (CircleCI 2.0 is a plus)
- Experience with container technologies: Docker and AWS ECS
- Hands-on experience with data sources such as PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis, ElasticSearch, etc.
- Proficient understanding of code versioning tools, such as Git
- Open-minded, willing to learn new topics, gather new skills, and adapt your workflow as AI tooling evolves
- Good written and spoken English for communication
We Offer You
- Flexible Working Schedule
- Remote Work
- Competitive Compensation
- Performance Bonuses
- Surprise Goodies
