Senior DevOps Engineer

Quick Facts

• Role: Senior DevOps Engineer
• Focus: Infrastructure, CI/CD, developer enablement, observability, reliability, security/compliance
• Work style: Hybrid role

Description

You will design, build, and evolve the cloud infrastructure and deployment systems that power product and engineering velocity. You’ll standardize deployment patterns across serverless, containers, and workflow orchestration, while improving developer experience through internal tooling and self-serve abstractions. You’ll also drive observability standards, reliability/performance improvements, and automate security and compliance within deployment pipelines.

Responsibilities

• Infrastructure, Platform, and Deployment: Build and evolve cloud infrastructure with infrastructure-as-code; run CI/CD pipelines for safe, repeatable releases; standardize deployment patterns across serverless and containerized workloads; improve provisioning, configuration, and deployment to reduce risk.
• Developer Experience and Enablement: Create internal tooling and automation to simplify backend and ML workflows; improve local and staging environments; enable engineer self-service with abstractions, templates, and documentation; remove bottlenecks in the dev and deployment lifecycle.
• Observability, Reliability, and Performance: Define observability standards for metrics, logs, and tracing; implement early detection for reliability, latency regressions, and performance issues; investigate distributed system bottlenecks (serverless, containers, Postgres); support incident response and root cause analysis; contribute to blameless postmortems and ensure learnings update tooling, process, and documentation.
• Security, Compliance, and Operational Excellence: Automate security and compliance workflows (patching, access controls, audit readiness, vulnerability management); build security/compliance practices into infrastructure and deployment pipelines; participate in the on-call rotation.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related field
• 7+ years of professional engineering experience in B2B SaaS
• Production experience operating cloud environments, ideally AWS
• Hands-on infrastructure-as-code experience (Terraform or similar), plus CI/CD and modern deployment workflows
• Experience with serverless compute patterns, containerized services, distributed workflow orchestration, and Postgres
• Understanding of observability tooling and performance debugging under load
• Ability to write scripts or services to automate infrastructure and developer workflows

Benefits

• Healthcare coverage: full medical, dental, and vision (includes family participation)
• 401(k) with company match (50% of first 3% contributed)
• Equity participation
• Unlimited PTO
• Daily lunch stipend ($100/week)
• Wellness stipend ($100/month)
• Commuter benefits ($100/month for SF and NYC-based employees)
