ABOUT THE ROLE:

We are looking for a seasoned Senior DevOps Engineer to join our team and take ownership of our CI/CD ecosystem, cloud infrastructure automation, and developer platform. This is a journey-level, fully qualified position where you will independently design and drive solutions across complex, diverse projects — bringing both technical depth and collaborative leadership to everything you do.

You will work at the intersection of infrastructure engineering, AI-driven tooling, and modern cloud operations, partnering closely with development and TechOps teams to accelerate delivery cycles and ensure the reliability, security, and scalability of our systems.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design, implement, and maintain robust, scalable CI/CD pipelines across multiple environments, applying industry best practices to optimize delivery speed and system reliability.
• Automate the provisioning and lifecycle management of cloud resources (VMs, EC2, and more) using Infrastructure as Code — with Terraform as the primary tool — ensuring consistent, repeatable, and auditable deployments.
• Manage and optimize cloud networking configurations, supporting complex developer workflows and infrastructure scalability requirements.
• Integrate AI and large language model (LLM) capabilities into DevOps tooling and developer workflows, including leveraging Model Context Protocol (MCP) for intelligent automation and context-aware pipeline tooling.
• Collaborate with engineering and operations teams to identify bottlenecks, reduce toil, and continuously improve the release process.
• Apply security best practices to deployment pipelines and cloud infrastructure, proactively identifying and remediating vulnerabilities.
• Monitor, observe, and optimize infrastructure performance, taking initiative to resolve complex issues before they impact customers.
• Evaluate emerging tools and technologies — particularly in the AI/LLM space — and provide guidance on how to incorporate them effectively into organization workflows.
• Communicate technical strategies and recommendations clearly to senior internal and external stakeholders, adapting your approach to diverse audiences and often driving alignment on difficult decisions.

Qualifications:

• 5+ years of related DevOps/infrastructure engineering experience (or 3 years with a Master’s degree or equivalent experience).
• Deep, hands-on expertise with Terraform for infrastructure as code — this is a must-have.
• Hands-on, production-level experience building and deploying AI/LLM-integrated systems — this is a must-have. You have worked directly with large language model APIs, designed AI-assisted workflows, and shipped real tooling powered by LLMs in an engineering or DevOps context.
• Hands-on, production-level experience with Model Context Protocol (MCP) — this is a must-have. You have implemented MCP-based integrations to build intelligent, context-aware developer tools, automation pipelines, or agent workflows, not just read about it.
• Strong command of CI/CD platforms (e.g., GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, CircleCI, or similar).
• Experience provisioning and managing cloud infrastructure on AWS, GCP, or Azure (EC2, VMs, VPCs, IAM, etc.).
• Solid understanding of cloud networking concepts (VPCs, subnets, security groups, load balancers, DNS).
• Demonstrated ability to work independently, resolve ambiguous and complex problems, and deliver high-quality solutions with minimal supervision.

Preferred:

• Experience with Kubernetes, Helm, or container orchestration platforms.
• Familiarity with GitOps workflows (e.g., ArgoCD, Flux).
• Scripting proficiency in Python, Bash, or Go.
• Knowledge of observability tooling (Datadog, Prometheus/Grafana, OpenTelemetry).
• Experience building internal developer platforms (IDPs).

US Pay Range:

The US National annual base salary range for this full-time position is $131,500-$154,700 + benefits + 401(k) match + equity.
