About Us

Amach is an industry-leading technology-driven company with headquarters in Dublin and remote teams across the UK and Europe. Founded in 2013, we specialize in solving aviation complexity issues by modernizing operating models using cloud, data, and AI. Our goal is to maximize operational efficiency, reduce costs, and enhance customer experience and satisfaction.

We are seeking an experienced Senior DevOps Engineer to join our customer's team, working closely with engineering and technology teams to design, implement, and maintain scalable, secure, and reliable cloud infrastructure.

Responsibilities

Design, build, and maintain scalable, secure, and highly available AWS infrastructure using Terraform and Infrastructure as Code best practices.
Work hands-on across AWS services, focusing on networking, IAM, security, connectivity, and troubleshooting.
Design, manage, and troubleshoot containerized workloads using Docker and Amazon ECS/Fargate.
Build, maintain, and improve CI/CD pipelines and GitHub Actions workflows to support reliable and efficient software delivery.
Develop infrastructure automation and reusable Terraform modules to reduce manual processes and improve operational efficiency.
Troubleshoot complex infrastructure, networking, deployment, and production issues, identifying root causes and implementing robust solutions.
Drive improvements across monitoring, logging, observability, reliability, and operational processes.
Support cloud security, compliance, and cost optimization initiatives.
Work closely with engineering teams and customer stakeholders to improve infrastructure, deployment, and operational practices.
Provide technical guidance and knowledge transfer to other engineers and operational teams.
Contribute to capacity planning, scalability, resilience, and disaster recovery initiatives.
Navigate complex enterprise environments, working across teams and systems where processes, ownership, and technical information may not always be clearly defined.
Take ownership of technical problems from investigation through to resolution, proactively identifying opportunities for improvement.

Requirements

8+ years' experience in DevOps, Cloud Engineering, Infrastructure Engineering, or a similar hands-on technical role.
Strong, demonstrable hands-on experience with AWS in production environments.
Deep knowledge of AWS networking, including VPCs, subnets, routing, security groups, connectivity, and troubleshooting.
Strong understanding and hands-on experience of AWS IAM and cloud security principles.
Extensive hands-on experience with Terraform and Infrastructure as Code.
Strong experience with Docker and Amazon ECS/ECS Fargate.
Strong GitHub experience, including GitHub Actions, workflows, and CI/CD pipeline development.
Demonstrated ability to troubleshoot complex cloud and infrastructure issues independently.
Experience designing and operating highly available, scalable, and resilient cloud environments.
Strong understanding of DevOps principles, automation, and CI/CD practices.
Ability to work effectively in complex, large-scale enterprise environments and navigate ambiguity where processes and ownership may not always be straightforward.
Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to operate effectively as an embedded member of a customer's technical organization.
A genuinely hands-on approach, with the ability to demonstrate technical depth rather than purely architectural or managerial experience.

Nice to Have

Experience working with data platforms, data engineering, or data pipelines.
Experience with Snowflake.
Experience with Dagster or other workflow/orchestration technologies.
Experience with ETL/ELT technologies and data pipelines.
Experience with MLflow or similar machine learning platform tooling.
