We aim to collaborate with people who love tech for its own sake and want to help shape the future by solving real-world challenges.

The Role

We’re looking for a DevOps Engineer to join our team and take responsibility for the stability, automation, and continuous improvement of our infrastructure. You’ll be managing Linux systems, CI/CD pipelines, container environments, and cloud deployments — while also helping evolve how we build, test, and deploy across projects.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys working independently in a technically-minded team, and who values clarity, pragmatism, and continuous learning.

• Set up and optimize Docker containers and (optionally) Kubernetes clusters.


• Automate infrastructure management with Ansible, Terraform, or similar tools.


• Implement and monitor cloud infrastructure (GCP preferred).


• Configure and maintain Nginx and basic web service stacks.


• Define and enforce backup strategies and disaster recovery processes.


• Use monitoring tools like Prometheus, Grafana, and alerting systems to ensure availability.


• Participate in on-call rotations to support critical services.


• Collaborate with backend engineers to streamline integration and delivery.


• Continuously identify and automate repetitive tasks to reduce manual intervention.

You’ll be working with:

• Linux (Ubuntu), GitLab CI, Docker, Docker-Compose


• Google Cloud Platform (GCP)


• Kubernetes (nice to have)


• Nginx, Prometheus, Grafana


• Scripting tools: Bash, Python


• Ansible, Terraform

Your Profile

• 3+ years of hands-on experience in DevOps, SRE, or infrastructure roles.


• Proficient with Linux/Ubuntu system administration.


• Comfortable with Docker and CI/CD workflows


• Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools (e.g., Ansible, Terraform).


• Familiar with cloud services like GCP, AWS, or Azure.


• Confident working with Nginx, shell scripting, and basic networking.


• Strong written and verbal communication skills in English.


• Self-driven, self-organized, pragmatic, and comfortable working independently.
