DevOps Engineer | Build Systems That Don’t Break

About Pocketful

We’re not here to maintain systems.

We’re here to build infrastructure that scales before it breaks.

Pocketful is rebuilding how India invests — fast, reliable, and brutally efficient. Backed by Pace, we combine deep market experience with startup velocity.

We ship fast.

Which means our infra needs to be faster.

What This Role Really Is

You’re not here to “manage servers.”

You’re here to own uptime, scalability, and reliability — end to end.

When something crashes → you fix it.

When something slows down → you optimize it.

When something doesn’t exist → you build it.

No hand-holding. No silos. Just ownership.

What You’ll Own (Core Responsibilities)

Infrastructure & Cloud

Architect and manage AWS infrastructure (EC2, VPC, Load Balancers, Route53, CloudFront, etc.)
Design systems that scale under pressure and don’t fail silently

Containerization & Orchestration

Run and optimize Docker + Kubernetes workloads
Ensure deployments are repeatable, reliable, and fast

CI/CD & Automation

Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins)
Automate everything that shouldn’t be manual
Ship faster without breaking things

Monitoring, Logging & Reliability

Set up deep observability (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenSearch)
Track everything that matters — ignore everything that doesn’t
Own uptime, latency, and system health

Databases & Systems

Work with Postgres, MongoDB, Redis, RabbitMQ
Ensure high availability, backups, and performance tuning

Infrastructure as Code

Use Terraform to build reproducible, scalable infra
No manual setups. Ever.

What We’re Looking For

3–7 years in DevOps / SRE / Infra roles
Strong hands-on with AWS ecosystem
Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines
Solid scripting skills (Shell / Python)
You think in systems, not tasks

Good to Have (But We’ll Know If You’re Faking It)

AWS Lambda, CloudFormation
Nginx, Apache, Tomcat
Jira or similar tools
Understanding of system design patterns

Who This Is For

You take ownership of systems like they’re yours
You don’t wait for alerts — you predict failures
You care about performance, reliability, and speed
You can handle production pressure without panic

Who This Is NOT For

If you need step-by-step instructions
If you’re okay with “it works most of the time”
If uptime isn’t personal for you

Why This Role

Because bad infra kills great products.

And we’re not building something average.

What You Get

Work on infra that actually handles real scale
Solve problems that impact thousands of users daily
Be part of a system where engineering drives business outcomes
