• Maintain highly available, scalable, and reliable staging and production environments, targeting 99.9% availability for CI/CD and staging infrastructure and 99.99% product availability.
• Establish and enforce best practices in DevOps and Site Reliability Engineering, including deployment reliability, operational readiness, monitoring, and incident prevention.
• Strengthen CI/CD pipelines through automated testing, code reviews, release controls, and deployment validation to eliminate release-related production issues.
• Accelerate software delivery by reducing CI/CD pipeline execution times, improving environment provisioning, and shortening engineering lead times.
• Design and implement resilient infrastructure, disaster recovery strategies, and operational procedures that support business continuity.
• Drive Infrastructure as Code (IaC), deployment automation, and secure development environment practices.
• Monitor infrastructure performance and reliability using measurable indicators, applying data-driven analysis to guide technical decisions and continuous improvement.
• Collaborate with engineering and neighboring teams to establish clear agreements, coordinate dependencies, and ensure effective communication between infrastructure teams and the wider organization.
• Support the development and operation of large-scale cloud applications, ensuring systems can handle high request volumes and distributed workloads.
• Promote operational excellence, security, and accountability throughout the engineering organization.

• At least 3 years of experience leading teams within a fast-growing, multinational IT organization.
• At least 5 years of experience in DevOps and Site Reliability Engineering, maintaining distributed products with high requests per second (RPS).
• Strong hands-on expertise in designing and managing complex CI/CD pipelines, implementing Infrastructure as Code, and executing diverse deployment strategies.
• Practical experience building, scaling, and maintaining cloud-based applications on AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
• Demonstrated ability to implement secure development environments and integrate security into infrastructure and delivery workflows.
• Strong understanding of system availability, scalability, resilience, monitoring, and production reliability.
• Experience using concrete metrics and performance indicators to assess systems, justify technical decisions, and drive improvements.
• Proven ability to recruit, mentor, and develop engineers while establishing high standards for technical performance and team effectiveness.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, including the ability to build relationships across teams, manage dependencies, and establish effective working agreements.
• Ability to operate autonomously, manage competing priorities, and lead technical initiatives in a fast-paced, international environment.
• Familiarity with the following technology stack is relevant: .NET Core, MongoDB, Vue 2/3, AWS, Kafka, Elasticsearch (ES), GitLab CI, Prometheus, VictoriaMetrics, Jaeger, and Kubernetes (k8s).

Benefits:

• Remote-friendly work environment offering flexibility for eligible roles and locations.
• Opportunity to collaborate with a globally distributed team spanning more than 30 countries.
• Exposure to an AI-native organization that encourages innovation, experimentation, and the use of AI agents to improve productivity.
• Opportunity to shape infrastructure and engineering practices for an AI-powered enterprise platform serving global businesses.
• Meaningful technical and leadership ownership in a rapidly scaling, post-Series C organization.
• Collaborative and inclusive culture that values individual perspectives, accountability, and high performance.
• Opportunities to work across international teams and contribute to impactful engineering initiatives.
