Senior Devops Engineer

Job Overview

We are looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to join a distributed team of specialist and senior engineers spanning multiple locations globally. In this role, you will be a hands-on technical contributor and force multiplier — working alongside specialist engineers to raise the collective bar through knowledge sharing, unblocking, and collaborative problem-solving. You will bring deep expertise in Azure-based Kubernetes platforms and a breadth of DevOps practice to help deliver and evolve our infrastructure at scale.

A Day In The Life

Kubernetes & Container Platform

Design, deploy, and operate Kubernetes workloads on Redhat OpenShift and AKS in production and test environments, with consideration for future AWS expansion.

Define cluster topology, multi-tenancy models, RBAC policies, namespace strategy, and workload placement standards.

Implement and contribute to GitOps workflows using ArgoCD; manage the broader Kubernetes tooling ecosystem including Helm, Kustomize, ingress controllers, and service mesh.

Maintain container image standards including base image governance, vulnerability scanning, and registry hygiene.

CI/CD, IaC, & Cloud Platform

Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines that enable fast, reliable delivery; introduce progressive delivery patterns where appropriate.

Develop and maintain infrastructure as code using Terraform; contribute to shared module libraries and uphold consistent standards across environments.

Contribute to cloud architecture decisions on Azure (VNet design, IAM, private connectivity, cost optimization) with an eye toward multi-cloud extensibility.

Observability, Reliability, & Security

Work within the observability stack (metrics, logging, tracing, alerting) to ensure consistent coverage and actionable signal across platform components.

Drive SLO/SLI practices, lead blameless post-mortems, and systematically reduce classes of production incidents.

Enforce security by default including secrets management, policy enforcement (OPA/Gatekeeper or Kyverno), network policies, and compliance posture.

Technical Leadership & Enablement

Act as a technical resource and mentor for engineers on your team, sharing knowledge, reviewing work, and removing blockers to keep delivery moving.

Produce and maintain clear documentation, architecture decision records (ADRs), and runbooks to support team-wide understanding.

Participate in architecture reviews and roadmap planning, ensuring platform concerns are well represented in cross-functional decisions.

What will help you thrive in this role?

• BTech/MTech/MCA
• 10+ years in DevOps, SRE, or Platform Engineering; prior experience at a principal or staff level.
• Deep, hands-on Kubernetes expertise, including Redhat Openshift or AKS in production environments.
• Hands-on proficiency with Terraform for infrastructure as code, and ArgoCD for GitOps-based deployments.
• Strong Azure platform knowledge: networking, identity, cost management, and Azure-native services.
• Experience with observability tooling (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry) and security practices (secrets management, policy enforcement).
• Demonstrated ability to mentor and elevate peers, communicate technical concepts clearly, and collaborate effectively across distributed teams.
• Experience migrating workloads to Kubernetes or managing on-premises Kubernetes deployments.
• Familiarity with containerization strategies and best practices for legacy application modernization.
• AWS experience or multi-cloud background.
• Kubernetes certifications (CKA, CKAD, or CKS).
