About the job

You’ll be part of a high-performing DevOps team responsible for evolving our cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and observability frameworks across environments. You’ll have the autonomy to design, build, and optimise our infrastructure systems while enabling developer productivity at scale.

What you’ll do

  • Design, build, and maintain CI/CD pipelines for all HackerRank environments from development to production.

  • Automate infrastructure using Terraform, Docker, and Kubernetes (EKS), ensuring scalability and reproducibility.

  • Lead and evangelise DevOps best practices across engineering teams, CI/CD hygiene, observability, and cost-efficient architectures.

  • Implement and maintain monitoring, alerting, and incident response systems using tools like OpsGenie, New Relic, and ELK.

  • Optimise the performance and utilisation of key systems such as Redis, RDS, Redshift, ElasticSearch, and Kafka.

  • Partner with security and platform teams to ensure compliance, resilience, and threat protection across cloud environments.

  • Contribute to cloud cost optimisation initiatives and infrastructure efficiency projects.

Who you are

  • Bring 3+ years of experience in DevOps, SRE, or Cloud Infrastructure Engineering roles.

  • Deep expertise with AWS (and ideally some exposure to GCP), including EKS, EC2, S3, SQS, and IAM.

  • Strong experience with Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes, and Linux (Ubuntu)

  • Hands-on scripting or coding skills in Python or Java.

  • Solid grasp of monitoring, alerting, and performance tuning principles.

  • Strong collaborator who can partner with developers, QA, and leadership teams to drive platform improvements.

Even better if you have

  • Experience implementing ArgoCD, Jenkins, or other CI/CD orchestration tools.

  • Background in security engineering, threat modelling, or penetration testing.

  • Knowledge of observability frameworks and modern APM tools (New Relic, Prometheus, Grafana).

  • Proven track record in cost optimisation and infrastructure scaling for high-traffic systems.

  • Experience working with multi-cloud or hybrid environments.

You will thrive in this role if

  • Bring a builder’s mindset to automate processes, simplify workflows, and empower others through effective tools.

  • Being passionate about reliability, scalability, and developer experience.

  • Enjoying owning systems end-to-end and solving production challenges hands-on.

  • Balances technical depth with empathy, understanding that infrastructure is successful only when developers can move faster and safer.

  • Take pride in creating calm out of complexity and designing systems that just work.
