What you’ll bring
  • Strong knowledge of CI/CD strategies, including GitOps principles, to streamline deployments and manage configurations effectively.
  • Proven experience implementing progressive delivery methods such as canary and blue/green deployments to ensure safe rollouts.
  • Experience with distributed systems, particularly working with Kubernetes to manage and orchestrate containerized applications.
  • Familiarity with at least one cloud platform (e.g. AWS, Azure, or GCP) and its services
  • Good knowledge of infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform
  • Familiarity with SRE best practices and principles (e.g. SLIs/SLOs, incident management, post-mortems, etc.)
  • Experience building highly available and observable systems at scale (preferably in Go or Python)
What we offer
