Middle DevOps Engineer

About the Position

We're looking for a Middle DevOps Engineer to join our team and work embedded with one of our key clients - a fast-growing AdTech SaaS company operating at scale on AWS. You'll be part of a small, high-ownership DevOps team working closely with the client's backend, data, and product engineers on a daily basis.

This is a hands-on role. You'll handle everything from routine infrastructure maintenance to complex migrations, security hardening, and cost optimization - and you'll be expected to communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Responsibilities

• Managing and evolving cloud infrastructure on AWS (EKS, RDS, ElastiCache, S3, OpenSearch, Cognito, SES, and more)
• Maintaining and improving CI/CD pipelines built on GitHub Actions and ArgoCD
• Writing and maintaining infrastructure-as-code with Terraform (including Terraform Cloud)
• Supporting Kubernetes clusters (EKS) with Karpenter autoscaling and Bottlerocket OS
• Participating in security initiatives - MFA enforcement, WAF configuration, GitHub branch protection, GPG commit signing, ISO 27001 compliance
• Monitoring and alerting via Datadog and responding to incidents
• Managing AWS Bedrock integrations and supporting AI-powered services
• Supporting developer teams with access management, environment provisioning, and day-to-day requests
• Contributing to cost optimization efforts and monthly AWS cost reporting

Requirements

• Required:

  • Experience with ArgoCD or other GitOps tools
  • Solid understanding of AWS core services (EC2, S3, RDS, IAM, VPC, EKS)
  • Hands-on experience with Terraform
  • Familiarity with Kubernetes and Helm
  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions or similar)
  • Comfortable working in Linux environments and with CLI tooling
  • Strong written communication in English - you'll be interacting with client stakeholders daily
  • Ability to work independently, ask the right questions, and take ownership

• Nice to have:

  • Familiarity with Datadog or similar observability platforms
  • Knowledge of AWS security services (WAF, GuardDuty, Security Hub)
  • Experience with ElastiCache, OpenSearch, or Databricks
  • Exposure to ISO 27001 or SOC 2 compliance processes
  • Familiarity with AWS Bedrock or AI/ML infrastructure

What to Expect

• You'll be embedded in a real product team, not bouncing between projects every few weeks
• Small team, high ownership - your work matters and is visible
• Direct communication with client engineers and stakeholders
• Fully remote, async-friendly, with regular syncs
• You'll be expected to grow into the role - we invest in people who take initiative

We Offer

• Paid vacation - 16 days per year
• Documented (16 days) and undocumented (5 days) sick leave
• Leave for significant life events
• Compensation for medical insurance (for our employees based in UA)
• Flexible working hours (start at 8.00-11.00 o’clock)
• Weekends according to the Ukrainian/Local calendar
• Engaging projects with opportunities for career growth
• Certifications, Udemy courses
• Corporate events, team-building activities
• Gifts and recognition from the company
• A friendly, open, and supportive team culture without excessive bureaucracy
