What we're looking for

6+ years of experience in DevOps/Infrastructure Engineering with strong exposure to AWS-based environments.
2+ years of experience leading, mentoring, or managing DevOps / Platform / Infrastructure Engineering teams.
Strong understanding of modern cloud-native architectures, Kubernetes ecosystems, Infrastructure as Code (Terraform), CI/CD practices, and platform engineering principles.
Technical background in Linux-based environments, networking, security, observability, and production operations.
Comprehensive understanding of the DevOps lifecycle, including configuration management, orchestration, CI/CD pipelines, monitoring, and security practices.
Proven experience leading and managing a DevOps or System Engineering team (task planning, prioritization, workload distribution).
Experience coordinating cross-functional initiatives involving engineering teams, architects, product managers, security teams, and business stakeholders.
Experience running day-to-day delivery: sprint planning support, task tracking, dependency management, and delivery follow-up.
Strong ownership mindset: accountable for team outcomes, stability of environments, and operational continuity.
Ability to mentor engineers, support onboarding, and grow less-senior team members.
Comfortable operating in a regulated or security-restricted environment, balancing delivery speed with compliance.
Hands-on technical background sufficient to review designs, challenge solutions, and guide discussions, without being the main technical decision-maker.
Clear communication skills, especially for explaining risks, trade-offs, and progress to non-technical stakeholders.
Ability to identify process bottlenecks and drive incremental improvements in team efficiency and collaboration.
