- Regularly evaluate and research alternative solutions to improve internal DevOps processes
- Continuously evaluate and refine the monitoring of our critical infrastructure and applications
Who you are:
- You probably have a degree in a STEM subject, but we’re happy to work with people who perfected their craft via a different route.
- 3+ years experience in demonstrating competency and positive results in a DevOps, SRE or Infrastructure Engineering role.
- 3+ years experience managing and demonstrating competency with AWS infrastructure, including EKS, RDS, S3, and others as well as professional experience with CI/CD tooling and concepts.
