DevOps Engineer

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a DevOps Engineer based in India.

As a DevOps Engineer, you will help build and operate reliable, scalable infrastructure and deployment systems in a modern cloud-native environment. You will work hands-on with Kubernetes, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD), and Infrastructure as Code (IaC). The role combines infrastructure automation, observability, production support, and reliability engineering to improve how software is deployed and operated. You will partner closely with developers to strengthen deployment workflows and enhance the overall developer experience. A key part of the position is identifying repetitive operational work and replacing it with efficient, automated solutions. You will also investigate complex production issues across infrastructure, networking, Kubernetes, and applications. This is an opportunity to make a direct impact on system reliability, scalability, security, and operational excellence within a fast-moving engineering environment.
