Job Description
We are looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer, Reliability & Platform Operations to improve the reliability, operational stability, risk posture, and delivery effectiveness of our cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes platforms, CI/CD workflows, databases, middleware, and production systems.
In this role, you will work closely with DevOps Engineers / Software Delivery Engineers, Software Engineering, Security, Database providers, Support, Product, and leadership teams to reduce production risk, improve observability, strengthen operational standards, automate repetitive work, and enable safer paths to production.
You will provide design guidance, advanced technical support, automation, best practices, and reliability standards to DevOps Engineers / Software Delivery Engineers, while those teams retain ownership of application delivery readiness and implementation.
This is a senior technical individual contributor role for someone who has strong production ownership, deep infrastructure and platform experience, solid SRE practices, and the ability to proactively identify recurring problems and drive permanent improvements.
Responsibilities
- Improve reliability engineering practices across production systems, including SLIs, SLOs, error budgets, postmortems, runbooks, service health indicators, and corrective-action tracking.
- Lead reliability improvements across cloud platforms, AKS, CI/CD pipelines, application environments, databases, and supporting middleware.
- Operate and improve AKS clusters, including upgrades, autoscaling, node pools, networking, storage, identity, security, reliability, and operational standards.
- Provide guidance, best practices, and standards for Kubernetes application deployment patterns.
- Improve delivery reliability through advanced GitHub Actions workflows, reusable automation, secure deployment patterns, rollback support, and pipeline optimization.

- Support incident response for production, deployment, infrastructure, database, middleware, and application reliability issues, including severity recommendation, triage coordination, stakeholder communication, mitigation support, postmortems, and corrective actions.
- Operate with production awareness and ownership, supporting reliability improvements and production-risk reduction.
- Recommend blocking, delaying, or rolling back releases when reliability, security, operational, or business-continuity risks are identified.
- Understand PHP Symfony monolith behavior sufficiently to support production reliability and collaborate effectively with software engineering teams.
- Operate, tune, monitor, back up, troubleshoot, and support MySQL, ProxySQL, and RabbitMQ directly, while coordinating with the database provider where required.
- Strengthen security and compliance practices across infrastructure, CI/CD, and runtime environments, including secrets management, access control, dependency and image scanning, signing/provenance, CI/CD security controls, cloud security configuration, and audit support.
- Improve backup, restore, disaster recovery, cloud cost visibility, cost control, and operational resilience across critical systems.
- Mentor DevOps Engineers / Software Delivery Engineers through technical guidance, design review, standards definition, operational knowledge sharing, and reliability best practices.
- Produce and maintain runbooks, troubleshooting guides, deployment procedures, reliability standards, architecture notes, and knowledge-base articles.
- Propose technical initiatives related to reliability, platform operations, observability, automation, incident reduction, cloud maturity, and operational risk reduction.
