Designation: Senior Engineer, DevOps

Office Location: Gurgaon

Qualification: Bachelor's in CS, IT, or related field

Position Description:

We're looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to own the reliability, scalability, security, and cost-efficiency of our real-time bidding (RTB) and ad-tech infrastructure. You'll run a multi-cloud (AWS/GCP) environment powering sub-100ms-latency, revenue-critical systems — Kafka streaming, ScyllaDB/NoSQL, EMR/Spark batch — and keep it available and compliant (ISO 27001, DPTM) under traffic spikes, failures, and attacks.

Primary Responsibilities:

- Automate infra provisioning and deployment via IaC (Terraform, Ansible).
- Build monitoring, logging, alerting, and SLOs/error budgets across production systems.
- Own CI/CD, security, and incident response for all production infrastructure.
- Design fault-tolerant, cost-optimized infrastructure across AWS and GCP.
- Maintain high availability under traffic spikes, disasters, and attacks — including DDoS mitigation and secrets management.
- Manage and tune Kafka streaming and Spark/EMR batch pipelines.
- Run blameless postmortems and drive root-cause fixes for production incidents.
- Partner with engineering on architecture reviews and technical documentation.

Required Skills:

- 6–8 years running production-grade, multi-tier infrastructure at scale.
- Solid Linux administration and scripting (Python, Bash, Go a plus).
- Multi-cloud hands-on: AWS (EC2, RDS, S3, IAM, ELB, EMR) and GCP (GKE, BigQuery, Cloud Storage).
- Apache Kafka — cluster management, partition tuning, and consumer lag monitoring.
- Relational and NoSQL data stores (MySQL, ScyllaDB/Cassandra, MongoDB, Aerospike, Redis).
- Real-time, low-latency, high-throughput architecture and failover design.
- IaC/config management (Terraform, Ansible) and CI/CD (Jenkins, GitHub Actions).




- Container orchestration (Kubernetes) and GitOps (ArgoCD/Flux).
- Observability tooling (Datadog, Grafana, New Relic) and cloud networking/load-balancing fundamentals.
- Security fundamentals: IAM least-privilege, secrets management, DDoS mitigation.
- Proven track record resolving production incidents on revenue-critical systems.
- Strong stakeholder communication; mentors and champions DevOps culture.
- Willing to join on-call rotation on a sub-100ms-latency production system.

Good to Have:

- AWS/GCP DevOps certification (e.g., AWS Certified DevOps Engineer, CKA).
- Experience in ad-tech RTB or trading-system latency architectures.
- FinOps / cloud cost-governance tooling (e.g., Kubecost).
- Service mesh experience (Istio/Linkerd).
- Chaos engineering / resilience testing experience.
- Active open-source contributions or personal technical projects.
