Our Engineering Environment
- Google Cloud Platform
- GKE
- Terraform
- Docker
- GitHub Actions
- Argo CD
- Helm
- Kustomize
Our services utilize Java and Spring Boot, PostgreSQL, and Redis. Operational investigation employs Google Cloud logging and monitoring, gcloud, and kubectl, alongside application telemetry.
What You Will Do
- Operate and improve GCP and GKE environments across production, staging, and internal services, including networking, ingress, TLS, workload configuration, and scaling.
- Maintain infrastructure as code with Terraform and GitOps with Argo CD, Helm, and Kustomize, ensuring changes are reproducible, reviewable, and recoverable.
- Improve GitHub Actions pipelines for backend services, web applications, and mobile releases, including build runners, artifact management, quality gates, and deployment automation.
- Design safe release and rollback procedures, coordinating application changes, database migrations, configuration, and post-deployment validation.
- Build actionable monitoring and alerting for availability, latency, errors, and capacity, and investigate incidents using Google Cloud tools, structured logs, and Kubernetes diagnostics.
- Strengthen IAM, Workload Identity, secret management, access controls, and environment isolation; support security reviews and evidence collection.
- Own backup and recovery procedures with service owners, validate restores, and maintain practical incident and disaster recovery runbooks.
- Improve cost efficiency and capacity planning without compromising reliability, remove manual operational work, and assist engineers in diagnosing platform problems.
What Success Looks Like
Releases become predictable, environments are reproducible, and incidents are easier to detect and resolve. Recovery procedures work when tested, access is controlled, and infrastructure spending is understood and actively managed.
What You Will Bring
- 5+ years of experience in DevOps, platform engineering, or site reliability engineering, with hands-on responsibility for production systems.
- Strong GCP and Kubernetes experience, including GKE, IAM, networking, Workload Identity, storage, and service exposure.
- Practical Terraform experience, including modular configuration, state management, drift investigation, and controlled changes.
- Experience building CI/CD pipelines and operating GitOps delivery with tools such as GitHub Actions and Argo CD.
- Strong Linux, container, and network troubleshooting skills, along with scripting ability in Bash, Python, or an equivalent language.
- Experience with cloud observability, incident response, backups, recovery testing, and operating database-dependent applications.
- Ability to explain operational risk, document procedures, and work with engineers to resolve failures across service boundaries.
Nice to Have
- Experience supporting fintech or other environments with sensitive data and strict reliability and audit requirements.
- Experience with Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL, Redis, Google Secret Manager, External Secrets, and Workload Identity Federation.
- Experience with self-hosted GitHub Actions runners, Flutter build and release pipelines, mobile signing, or OpenTelemetry.
