DevOps and cloud engineer

About the role

You will design, build and operate cloud infrastructure and delivery pipelines for United States, Canadian and European software clients. The work spans infrastructure as code, CI/CD, observability, cost optimisation and reliability engineering. This is a senior individual contributor role with technical influence over how client platforms are built. You will work the same clock as the client engineering team, which means you will be part of architectural conversations rather than receiving decisions after they are made.

Key responsibilities

• Design and implement cloud infrastructure using infrastructure as code, primarily Terraform
• Build, maintain and optimise CI/CD pipelines for build, test and deployment
• Implement and operate container orchestration, primarily Kubernetes
• Design and implement progressive delivery: feature flags, canary deployments, automated rollback
• Build observability: distributed tracing, structured logging, metrics and SLO-based alerting
• Conduct cloud cost analysis and implement optimisation: right-sizing, commitment planning, waste elimination
• Lead incident response for platform incidents and drive blameless post-incident review
• Implement and maintain security controls: secrets management, network policy, least-privilege access, vulnerability scanning
• Build self-service tooling that allows application engineers to provision environments without platform team involvement
• Participate in architectural design and technical decision making with client engineering leadership
• Document architecture, runbooks and operational procedures to a standard the client team can operate
• Deliver against knowledge transfer milestones
• Mentor mid-level and junior engineers across accounts
• Participate in on-call rotation

Required qualifications

• English at CEFR C1, assessed before offer. This role is client-facing and conducted primarily in English.

• Production Kubernetes experience including networking, storage and workload management
• Strong scripting and automation: Python, Go or Bash
• CI/CD platform experience: GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, CircleCI or Jenkins
• Observability tooling experience: Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry
• Demonstrable incident response experience in a production environment
• University degree in computer science, systems engineering or equivalent demonstrated experience
• Availability for on-call rotation
• Availability to work onsite in Santo Domingo two days per week
• Valid Dominican ID or work permit

Preferred qualifications

• Cloud certification: AWS Solutions Architect Professional, Azure Solutions Architect Expert, or GCP Professional Cloud Architect
• Certified Kubernetes Administrator or Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist
