Staff DevOps & Platform Engineer

For our client operating in the renewable energy industry, we are looking for a Sr DevOps & Platform Engineer to work on defining, architecting, and scaling an Internal Developer Platform (IDP), enterprise GitOps workflows, and autonomous self-healing infrastructure. In this role, you will act as a technical authority across the engineering organization, focusing on eliminating developer friction, enforcing automated zero-trust security guardrails, scaling multi-cluster Kubernetes systems, and building closed-loop AIOps pipelines.

Location

• 100% remote,

• start in October/beginning of November

Tasks

- Define the technical roadmap for self-service platform engineering, zero-trust cloud security, and distributed observability across multi-cloud environments.

- Architect multi-cluster, multi-region declarative delivery models using ArgoCD or Flux CD.

- Build closed-loop self-healing systems combining OpenTelemetry, topological anomaly correlation, and stateful orchestration engines.

- Implement zero-trust security guardrails across the delivery lifecycle using Kyverno or Open Policy Agent (OPA).

- Lead the design and scaling of inference and training infrastructure, including GPU cluster autoscaling and vector database hosting.

- Architect fault-tolerant failovers, active-active multi-region traffic routing, and automated chaos engineering experiments.

Requirements

- 8+ years of experience in platform and DevOps engineering.

- 6+ years of enterprise-scale Kubernetes administration.

- Strong programming proficiency in Go and Python.

- Mastery of modular Terraform, OpenTofu, or Pulumi.

- Production experience designing OpenTelemetry collector topologies.

- Proven track record building deterministic, idempotent workflows with state-machine frameworks.

- Demonstrated track record of authoring cross-team RFCs and establishing operational SLOs/SLIs.
