Lead Devops Engineer - Remote Eligible

Lead DevOps Engineer

We are looking for an exceptional and ambitious Lead DevOps Engineer who thrives in building scalable, secure, and reliable infrastructure to power our growing platform. As a dedicated DevOps leader at JobGet, you will play a key role in shaping and supporting our cloud architecture, automation, and developer enablement strategy. You'll balance hands-on engineering with strategic decision-making, driving best practices across CI/CD, monitoring, security, and infrastructure as code. This is an exciting opportunity to influence the technical foundation of a growing product and ensure our systems scale alongside our business.

Responsibilities

• Design, implement, and maintain highly available, scalable, and secure infrastructure on AWS (or equivalent cloud platforms).
• Establish and evolve CI/CD pipelines, ensuring fast, reliable, and automated software delivery.
• Develop infrastructure-as-code to manage and scale environments.
• Establish monitoring, alerting, and logging systems to ensure visibility, performance, and reliability.
• Leverage AI/ML tools to optimize CI/CD pipelines, automate root-cause analysis, and predict infrastructure issues before they impact performance.
• Ensure efficient use of compute resources (GPUs/TPUs) for AI workloads while managing costs and scalability.
• Evaluate and integrate emerging AI-powered DevOps tools to enhance developer productivity and operational efficiency.
• Collaborate closely with engineering teams to optimize build, deployment, and release processes.
• Drive infrastructure cost optimization while maintaining performance and reliability.
• Participate in incident response and postmortem processes; help establish and refine best practices.
• Set and enforce DevOps best practices across the organization, mentoring engineers in cloud, automation, and security.
• Partner with leadership to shape long-term infrastructure strategy and technical roadmap.

Who You Are

• 7+ years of experience in DevOps, SRE, or Infrastructure Engineering, with at least 2+ years in a lead role.
• Deep expertise with cloud platforms (AWS required; experience with GCP or Azure a plus).
• Hands-on experience with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes, ECS, etc.).
• Strong background in CI/CD tools (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, CircleCI, or similar).
• Proficiency in infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform, Pulumi, or CloudFormation).
• Solid understanding of networking, security, and infrastructure monitoring.
• Proficiency in debugging, triaging, and isolating faults across distributed, microservices-based systems.
• Experience scaling, consolidating, and standardizing infrastructure in a startup environment.
• Strong scripting/programming skills (Python, Bash, Go, or similar).
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to collaborate across engineering and leadership teams and the ability to clearly articulate complex technical concepts.
• Comfortable working in agile teams and contributing to all phases of the software development lifecycle.
• A builder's mindset: you enjoy rolling up your sleeves, solving tough problems, and enabling others to move faster.

At JobGet, we're looking for people who see themselves in our values. If you have made a measurable impact in your career and are known for your grit and curiosity, we encourage you to apply even if your experience doesn't exactly match what you see in the job description. We look forward to hearing from you.
