Systems & DevOps Engineer

About the Position

Systems & DevOps Engineer

Deligo is a leader in visual AI self-checkout for the convenience retail industry, trusted by global brands like Compass, Sodexo, Marks & Spencer, and Spar. We build advanced visual AI to recognize food and retail items instantly, providing a magical experience that saves time in checkout lines. Join our tight-knit team of curious, passionate builders who value trust and innovation.

Responsibilities

• Keep our fleet running reliably: Deploy, configure, and update Linux/Jetson and Windows-based systems, working with Docker, Docker Compose, and infrastructure tooling such as Terraform.
• Deliver frequent releases: Carry out software and configuration updates across our edge devices, gradually taking on releases for our cloud Recognition Service.
• Investigate production issues: Be the first engineering escalation point for Customer Support. Use SSH, logs, monitoring, and system state to diagnose problems, resolve common issues, and bring clear findings to senior engineers when needed.
• Turn recurring work into lasting improvements: Automate repetitive tasks and improve monitoring, runbooks, and deployment processes so that operational effort grows more slowly than the fleet.
• Connect people and systems: Work with Engineering, Customer Support, and Sales, communicating technical findings clearly and helping colleagues move issues toward resolution.
• Grow into operational ownership: Start with close supervision, build your understanding of the architecture, and progressively take on more independent decisions.
• On-call: Participate in an engineering on-call arrangement as we develop our formal processes.

Requirements

• Relevant professional experience: At least 2-3 years of hands-on experience in systems administration, DevOps, production operations, or a similar engineering role, including deploying, maintaining, and troubleshooting production systems.
• Practical Linux and systems knowledge: Comfortable working in Linux environments and understanding how operating systems, services, and IP networking fundamentals work.
• Hands-on Docker experience: Understanding of images, containers, volumes, networking, logs, and configuration, and working with containerized applications.
• Infrastructure and deployment fundamentals: Understanding of repeatable deployments and experience with Terraform, Ansible, or similar infrastructure automation tooling.
• University degree: Degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Information Technology, or a related technical field. A degree from a leading international university is a strong advantage.
• A systematic approach to troubleshooting: Gathering evidence, testing hypotheses, and narrowing down unfamiliar problems. Understanding why something failed rather than just putting out the fire.
• Ownership and sound judgment: Following problems through, taking care with production changes, and knowing when to involve others. Taking pride in reliable operations and looking for ways to improve repetitive work.
• Curiosity and a collaborative mindset: Learning proactively, welcoming feedback, and enjoying helping both technical and non-technical colleagues.
