  • Developing and enhancing Infrastructure as Code using Terraform, including creating and updating modules from scratch
  • Building and optimizing CI/CD pipelines (GitLab or similar), including pipeline architecture and YAML configurations
  • Writing and maintaining automation scripts using Python, Bash, Shell, or similar scripting languages
  • Supporting production and lower environments, including incident response and troubleshooting
  • Monitoring cloud‑based systems using standard observability and APM tools
  • Collaborating with integration and platform teams to establish automation standards and best practices
Required Experience & Skills

To be successful in this role, you should have:

  • 7+ years of experience in DevOps, Automation, or Platform Engineering roles
  • Strong experience with Terraform and Infrastructure as Code
  • Proven experience designing and supporting CI/CD pipelines
  • Hands‑on scripting experience (Python, Bash, Shell, Perl, or similar)
  • Experience working in cloud environments (AWS or equivalent)
  • Experience supporting production systems, including on‑call or incident response
  • Strong troubleshooting skills across infrastructure, pipelines, and integrations


Technical Environment (Experience with some of the following)
  • Cloud services (compute, storage, monitoring, automation)
  • CI/CD platforms (GitLab or similar)
  • Configuration management and automation tools
  • Application performance monitoring and observability tools
  • Integration or middleware platforms (experience with any is a plus, not a requirement)
What We’re Looking For

  • Strong ownership of automation quality, reliability, and scalability
  • Comfort working across multiple tools and technologies
  • Clear communicator who can document and explain technical solutions
