• Collaborate with the DevOps team in resolving high-severity incidents and help improve processes, tooling, and documentation to strengthen operational efficiency and resilience.

• Ensure infrastructure security through secrets management, network segmentation, and automated vulnerability scanning.

Your Profile:

• Extensive Linux expertise, ideally 6+ years working with high-availability, public-facing, and high-throughput environments.

• Solid hands-on cloud experience (3+ years with AWS, GCP, or Azure), ideally within hybrid or mixed environments.

• An innovator with strong opinions, quick problem-solving abilities, and a results-oriented attitude

• Strong Infrastructure-as-Code mindset, with proven experience using Terraform alongside a configuration management tool such as Ansible, Puppet, or Chef.

• Automation-focused approach, with strong Bash skills and experience using a higher-level language such as Python or Go to streamline workflows and eliminate manual effort.

• Deep understanding of networking fundamentals, including TCP/IP, DNS, load balancing, routing, firewalls, and performance troubleshooting.

• Experience working with CI/CD pipelines, modern deployment practices, and collaborative engineering environments.

• Comfortable working as part of a team-driven DevOps function, contributing to shared platforms, standards, and reliability improvements alongside self-motivated individual work
