Job Details

We’re looking for a hands-on and strategic Principal DevOps Engineer to lead the evolution of our cloud-native infrastructure. This role is ideal for someone deeply experienced in AWS, Kubernetes, and Terraform/Terragrunt who is passionate about automation, and enabling engineering teams to ship fast and safely. You’ll drive infrastructure strategy, lead cross-team initiatives, optimize cloud spend, and define best practices across deployment, observability, and security.

Key Responsibilities
  • Own Our Kubernetes Platform: Architect, manage, and scale EKS clusters using modern best practices.
  • Standardize Deployments with Helm: Build and maintain Helm charts to enable scalable and consistent application deployments.
  • Manage Cloud Infrastructure in AWS: Use Terraform and Terragrunt to define and manage reproducible infrastructure-as-code across environments.
  • Analyze and Optimize Cloud Costs: Monitor AWS usage and implement strategies to reduce unnecessary spend without compromising performance or reliability.
  • Drive Observability and Reliability: Implement and maintain metrics, logs, and alerting systems to support availability and performance.
  • Security and Access Controls: Enforce least-privilege IAM policies, secure networking, and effective secrets management.
  • Lead Cross-Team Initiatives: Partner with development, product, and security teams to design infrastructure solutions and drive large-scale engineering initiatives.
  • Mentor and Guide: Act as a senior technical mentor and set the standard for DevOps excellence across the organization.

Key Requirements
  • 8+ years of DevOps, Infrastructure, or SRE experience, including 2+ in a senior or principal-level role
  • Deep experience with AWS (EKS, EC2, IAM, VPC, S3, etc.)
  • Expert-level knowledge of Kubernetes in production environments
  • Proficient with Helm for application lifecycle management
  • Strong hands-on experience with Terraform and Terragrunt
  • Comfortable scripting in Bash, Python, or Go
  • Experience building and maintaining GitOps workflows (e.g., Argo CD)
  • Proven ability to monitor, analyze, and reduce AWS costs
  • Strong understanding of Linux, networking, and cloud security principles
  • Excellent communication skills and a collaborative, leadership-oriented mindset

Nice to Have
  • Experience in regulated or high-compliance environments (SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI)
  • Familiarity with tools like Karpenter, ExternalDNS, or EBS CSI driver
  • Contributions to open source or DevOps communities
