Senior DevOps Engineer

Clarvos is a next-generation AI-powered MarTech and AdTech startup on a mission to level the playing field for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs). They are seeking a Senior DevOps Engineer to bridge the gap between software development and operations, ensuring efficient and reliable software delivery through automation and infrastructure management.

Responsibilities:

• Bridge the Gap: Act as the primary liaison between software engineers and operations. Use your deep understanding of Java/Spring and Frontend frameworks to translate developer needs into operational solutions
• Culture of Collaboration: Foster innovation by breaking down silos. Champion a "You Build It, You Run It" mentality where operations and development share responsibility for system health
• Pipeline Management: Design, manage, and optimize CI/CD pipelines to achieve elite deployment frequency
• Automated Testing & Deployment: Automate the entire delivery lifecycle. Ensure that unit tests (JUnit), integration tests, and frontend builds (React/Angular) are executed reliably within the pipeline to prevent regressions
• Efficiency Enhancement: Relentlessly identify manual bottlenecks in the software delivery process and eliminate them through scripting (Python/Bash) and automation tools
• Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Create and maintain scalable, cloud-native infrastructure on GCP (or AWS) using Terraform, treating infrastructure changes with the same rigor as application code
• Security & Quality: Embed security scanning (DevSecOps) directly into the build process to uphold high security standards without slowing down development velocity
• System Health: Implement comprehensive monitoring solutions to track application performance, providing developers with the metrics they need to resolve technical debt and optimize code
• Feedback Loops: Create rapid feedback loops that alert the engineering team to issues immediately, enabling quicker resolution and higher software quality

Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field
• 7+ years of technical experience, with a specific focus on the intersection of Software Engineering and Operations
• Previous experience as a Full-Stack or Backend Engineer is required
• Expert-level proficiency with tools like Jenkins, GitHub, or GitLab
• Ability to debug and support Java and Spring Boot applications
• Familiarity with the build and deployment lifecycles of modern JavaScript frameworks (React, Vue, or Angular)
• Deep experience with Kubernetes, Docker, and Cloud Platforms (GCP preferred)
• Experience automating database migrations and managing schemas in a production environment
• Ability to make key technical decisions that shape the platform's future
• A strong drive to improve efficiency, reduce 'toil,' and enhance the overall quality of software products
• Ability to guide junior engineers and developers on DevOps best practices
