Staff Engineer - DevOps

About The Role

Most DevOps roles focus on tools and pipelines.

This one focuses on building the infrastructure platform itself.

You’ll design and own a multi-cloud foundation—infrastructure as code, secure networking, CI/CD, and automation that teams can rely on without thinking twice. The goal is simple: systems that scale cleanly, fail predictably, and stay secure by default.

If clean Terraform matters to you, manual console fixes make you uncomfortable, and you believe infrastructure should be reusable, observable, and boring in production — we’d love to hear from you.

What You’ll Own

• Architect and maintain production-grade IaC using Terraform (multi-cloud) and CloudFormation (AWS)
• Build reusable, versioned IaC modules to standardize environments
• Automate provisioning, configuration, and drift detection
• Operate and optimize AWS & Azure production environments
• Design secure cross-cloud & on-prem networking
• Embed security by design (IAM, VPCs, endpoints, secrets)
• Build and own CI/CD pipelines end to end
• Debug real cloud failures — builds, deploys, networking, permissions
• Improve developer experience via faster builds and self-service deploys

Must-Have Skills

• Minimum 6 years of Hands-on experience in AWS + Azure production experience
• Terraform mastery (state, modules, providers)
• Strong CloudFormation
• Automation scripting: Python / Bash / PowerShell
• CI/CD systems (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, Azure DevOps)
• Release strategies: Blue-Green, Canary

Nice to Have

• Kubernetes (EKS / AKS)
• Secrets & key management (KMS, Key Vault, Vault)
• Config management (Ansible, Chef, Puppet)
• Terraform / AWS / Azure certifications
• Exposure to GCP or OCI (or strong willingness to learn)

How You Work

• You’re tool-agnostic — best tool wins
• You learn new clouds fast and enjoy it
• You debug deeply, not superficially
• You own infra from commit to production
• You’re flexible across IST / GMT / EST time zones
• You help the team when things are on fire
