Secrets stay encrypted and access stays limited to the environments that need them.\nLead releases and production incidents. Diagnose failed deploys, capacity problems, and dependency failures with the service owner, and close them with a change in infrastructure, charts, playbooks, or the pipeline.\nBring new services, including AI platform components, onto the same release, security, and observability bar as the core products, on whichever cloud they run.\nOwn observability and cost: metrics, logs, and traces that show whether a release is healthy, and a clear view of spend by environment and cloud.\nHold the security baseline on the platform: identity and access, policy and runtime controls, image and dependency hygiene, and patch cadence for clusters, nodes, and hosts.\nAdvance disaster recovery and environment consistency so failover and drift are operating practice, not a side project.\nSet patterns other engineers can follow, and review risky changes to shared infrastructure before they land.\nRequirements\n8+ years of experience in DevOps, site reliability, or cloud platform engineering, with several of those years leading production infrastructure.\nYou have led Kubernetes platforms on AWS across more than one account, including production changes you owned through the incident. You have also operated workloads on Google Cloud, Azure, or both.\nYou have standardized Terraform, Helm, and Ansible that other people can apply, including environment layout and secrets handling.\nYou have run a real deploy path for many services and understand how image build, configuration, secrets, and load-balancer registration fit together.\nYou can diagnose an unhealthy release: scheduling, health checks, worker backlog, and a deploy that does not become ready.\nYou treat IAM, network boundaries, and secrets as part of the design, and you have operated cloud key management or an equivalent.\nYou have run databases, cache, and shared storage under Kubernetes, including backup and a tested restore.\nYou lead by setting the pattern and reviewing the risky changes, and you can pair with an engineer shipping infrastructure for the first time.\nSkills\nCloud: AWS (EKS, ECR, VPC, ALB/NLB, RDS/Aurora, ElastiCache, S3, EFS, SQS/SNS, IAM/IRSA, KMS, CloudWatch). Working knowledge of Google Cloud and Azure for the products that run there.\nKubernetes: EKS, Helm, workloads, autoscaling, pod disruption budgets, resource sizing, and production troubleshooting.\nDelivery: Terraform, Ansible, Docker, Jenkins, GitLab CI, and Git. Helm releases and Ansible playbooks across many environments.\nSecrets: SOPS or equivalent, with cloud key management. No plaintext credentials in configuration.\nData: PostgreSQL, Redis or Valkey, and object and shared file storage in production, including backup and restore.\nObservability: metrics, logs, and traces (Grafana, OpenTelemetry, Fluent Bit, CloudWatch, or equivalent) and cloud cost visibility.\nSecurity: IAM, network controls, policy-as-code, image and dependency scanning, and node and host patching.\nNetworking: load balancers, ingress, and API gateway patterns in front of Kubernetes services.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3799,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":8,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"India","iso":"IN","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Artificial Intelligence","Cybersecurity","Document Management","Digital Signature"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-11T16:14:47Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":62,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.822,"p_room":0.75,"age_days":14,"expected_fill_days":19,"reasons":["conf:2","win:late"],"computed_at":"2026-11-11T18:20:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/onit-lead-devops-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/onit-lead-devops-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-11T18:20:00Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":35163,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-12T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":58716},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=58716"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fonit-lead-devops-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":2,"usd":0.2},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fonit-lead-devops-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fonit-lead-devops-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/onit-lead-devops-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fonit-lead-devops-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":4078433}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"onit.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":4078433},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
