Senior DevOps Engineer

You'll lead the design and operation of cloud platforms that thousands of engineers rely on — across AWS, Azure, GCP, and OpenStack.

Architect CI/CD pipelines and GitOps workflows for fast, policy-driven deployments at scale
Drive infrastructure-as-code practices using Terraform, Helm, Ansible, and Kubernetes
Implement end-to-end monitoring and observability using Prometheus and Splunk
Lead AI-assisted DevOps initiatives including AI Agents and MCP servers
Mentor engineers on DevOps practices, tooling, and operational excellence

What you bring

10+ years of experience in DevOps, cloud engineering, or infrastructure roles with a track record of leading technical implementations
Strong knowledge of at least one major cloud provider (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
Proficiency with Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD tools (GitLab CI/CD, ArgoCD, Jenkins, or GitHub Actions)
Programming skills in Python, Go, or similar — with a strong automation-first mindset
Experience with AI/LLM integration and its application in DevOps automation
A natural mentor and collaborator who drives decisions with clarity and takes ownership of complex deliverables

Bonus: Experience with Crossplane, custom controllers, building AI Agents or MCP servers, or SAP technologies (BTP, HANA Cloud).

Where you belong

You'll join a high-performing team that values technical excellence, ownership, and knowledge sharing. Expect leadership opportunities alongside architects and senior engineers, cutting-edge technologies, flexible working, and career progression through high-impact projects.

We welcome candidates from all backgrounds. If you're excited about this role but don't meet every requirement, we encourage you to apply.
