Responsibilities

  • Build and maintain GitOps-based ArgoCD delivery pipelines so product teams can deploy safely without DevOps intervention.
  • Design and evolve self-service tooling, golden paths, deployment templates, and scaffolding for product teams.
  • Implement deployment safety guardrails including configuration diffing, change ownership, rollout strategies, and audit trails.
  • Build platforms, pipelines, and operational guardrails that support independent product-team delivery and operational ownership.
  • Use AI tools and agentic workflows to accelerate development, automation, and operational delivery.
  • Mentor and develop engineers and conduct technical interviews.

Requirements

  • At least 5 years of experience in infrastructure, DevOps, or platform engineering roles.
  • Production-grade Kubernetes experience including EKS or GKE, GitOps, service mesh, multi-tenant cluster operations, and resource management.
  • Deep hands-on experience with GitOps and CI/CD, including ArgoCD or Flux, Kustomize or Helm, rollout strategies, deployment safety, change ownership, and audit trails.
  • Deep AWS platform experience with EC2, EKS, S3, CloudFront, IAM/IRSA, VPC networking, RDS, and cost optimization levers.
  • A platform engineering and self-service orientation rather than reliance on one-off scripts or manual runbooks.
  • An AI-first approach with active, fluent use of AI tools to accelerate development and operations.
  • End-to-end ownership, independent execution, and the ability to translate infrastructure complexity into business impact.
  • People leadership skills, including mentoring and developing engineers and conducting technical interviews.
  • Preferred experience with GCP, hybrid multi-cloud operations, video streaming infrastructure, FinOps, cost optimization, or software development in Python, Go, Node.js, or similar.

Benefits

  • Full-time employment with remote or office-based work options in Ukraine.
  • Internal events, meetups, conferences, workshops, Udemy access, language courses, and company-paid certifications.
  • Opportunities to work on large-scale, globally impactful projects and explore domains through internal mobility.
  • Company-paid medical insurance, mental health support, and financial and legal consultations.
  • Friendly community and open-door culture with opportunities for professional growth.
