Job description
About the Position
unicrew is hiring a Middle DevOps Engineer, hybrid or fully remote from Poland or Ukraine, to help build a production-grade Azure Kubernetes platform.
About the Role
You will help take a new Azure Kubernetes platform from "it works" to production grade. It replaces two legacy environments that run the systems of a German home energy business.
You join 2 client-side DevOps engineers. The engagement is long-term: 6+ months, starting November 2026, with one position open. Work format is hybrid or fully remote.
Responsibilities
- Implement Pulumi modules and components within the agreed architecture
- Port parts of the legacy database abstraction and get them working
- Write and run the full-rebuild tests that prove the environment can be recreated from code
- Build Grafana dashboards and alert rules, and move existing ones over from Datadog
- Implement the configuration toggles and the tooling for on-demand ephemeral environments
- Maintain and improve CI/CD pipelines and self-hosted runners on the cluster
- Create templates and docs so developers manage their own alerts and dashboards through repositories
- Operate the cluster day to day (upgrades, troubleshooting) and review teammates' pull requests
Requirements
- 4-5 years of experience
- Hands-on production Kubernetes experience beyond deploying apps: you have operated clusters, handled upgrades, and troubleshot real incidents
- Hands-on experience inside an Azure environment designed by others: AKS, storage accounts, Key Vault, resource groups
- Infrastructure as Code (Terraform is fine, Pulumi is a plus), and comfortable writing object-oriented Python (modules, classes, abstractions)
- Working knowledge of the Kubernetes ecosystem: GitOps, service mesh / CNI, observability, secrets, policy engines
- CI/CD experience: you build and maintain pipelines, self-hosted runners, and GitOps delivery
- Reviews teammates' pull requests competently
- Confident spoken English for daily work with the client team
- Self-directed: productive from goals and a moving backlog, not only fully specified tickets
Nice to Have
- Pulumi in production
- Istio, Cilium, Argo CD, Kyverno, Kubescape, external-secrets, Kiali
- Grafana stack (dashboards, alerting, tracing) at production quality
- Self-hosted CI runners on Kubernetes
- German (helps with tickets, not required)
