Overview
We're seeking an Intermediate DevOps Engineer with solid infrastructure fundamentals, a platform-first mindset, and a drive to grow fast in a high-ownership environment.
What you'll be doing
You'll be part of our DevOps team, working closely with engineering squads across a remote-first organisation spread across Asia and Europe. Your primary focus will be on three things: keeping our platform reliable and scalable, making our observability stack actionable, and reducing friction in build and release processes so engineers can ship with confidence. You'll collaborate asynchronously and across time zones as a matter of course. AI tooling is a first-class part of how we work: you'll use it to accelerate automation and infrastructure work, while developing sharp judgment about validating its output.
