What You'll Actually Own

AI-led DevOps

• Use AI across your work: AI-assisted Terraform and scripting, automated pipeline debugging, and smarter alerting and log analysis (AIOps).
• Build and run infrastructure for AI features, including LLM integrations, AI APIs (e.g., AWS Bedrock) and the pipelines that serve them.
• Experiment with new AI tools that make the team faster, and share what works.

Cloud infrastructure, end-to-end

• Build and run the cloud infrastructure behind RockED’s mobile learning platform, primarily on AWS.
• Set up infrastructure for new projects from scratch, including new AWS accounts, environments, VPCs, networking and VPNs.
• Define everything as code with Terraform, so environments are repeatable, version-controlled and easy to scale.
• Optimise cloud costs continuously (FinOps), right-sizing resources and cutting waste as we grow.

Security and access management

• Own infrastructure security: IAM and access controls, VPC design, security groups, secrets management and configuration hardening.
• Run regular security checks and audits, fix vulnerabilities quickly, and keep us compliance-ready, including SOC 2.
• Apply least-privilege access across teams and tools, and make security a default rather than an afterthought.

CI/CD and developer velocity

• Own and improve CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins or similar) for fast, reliable and safe releases of our backend, web and mobile apps.
• Containerise and orchestrate services with Docker and Kubernetes.
• Give developers self-serve tools and paved paths, so shipping is quick and painless.

Reliability and observability

• Set up monitoring, logging and alerting with Prometheus, Grafana, ELK or Datadog, so we catch issues before users do.
• Lead incident response and root cause analysis, and build preventive fixes so problems don’t repeat.
• Own backups, disaster recovery and uptime targets as our user base scales.

Collaboration

• Work closely with engineering to build DevOps practices into the full software development lifecycle.
• Document infrastructure, runbooks and workflows so knowledge isn’t stuck in one person’s head.

How We Expect You to Work

Must-have

• 3–5 years of hands-on DevOps or infrastructure experience, ideally at a high-growth, product-based startup.
• Strong hands-on AWS experience (EC2, VPC, IAM, RDS, S3, Lambda, EKS/ECS), including setting up infrastructure and accounts from scratch.
• Infrastructure as code with Terraform.
• Docker and Kubernetes in production.
• CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions, Jenkins or similar.
• Monitoring and logging with Prometheus, Grafana, ELK or Datadog.
• Scripting in Bash and Python.
• Solid understanding of networking (VPC, VPN, DNS, load balancers) and security hardening.
• Hands-on use of AI tools in your daily DevOps workflow.

Good to have

• Experience with Azure.
• Exposure to deploying or running AI/LLM workloads.
• Experience with SOC 2 or similar compliance frameworks.
• Experience supporting mobile app releases (iOS/Android build pipelines).
• Familiarity with SQL/NoSQL databases and serverless architectures.
