DevOps Engineer

Amplifire AI Learning is a rapid-growth company transforming how people learn and retain knowledge. They are seeking a DevOps Engineer to improve systems, reduce operational friction, and enhance infrastructure and delivery processes while collaborating closely with engineering teams.

Responsibilities:

• Design, implement, and continuously improve CI/CD pipelines and deployment processes to reduce manual effort, increase reliability, and lower deployment risk. (Currently Jenkins, evolving toward GitHub Actions)
• Identify opportunities to automate and standardize infrastructure management through practical tooling and Infrastructure as Code practices when they provide measurable operational value
• Support and evolve our containerization strategy as part of broader efforts to improve deployment consistency, reliability, and operational efficiency
• Partner closely with developers to simplify release workflows, improve development experience, and eliminate operational friction
• Collaborate with Operations team members to strengthen platform resilience, observability, and production reliability
• Participate in release management and production support, helping ensure safe deployments and rapid resolution of issues
• Investigate production challenges and identify practical automation or process improvements to prevent recurrence
• Break down complex initiatives into achievable steps and deliver incremental improvements that create measurable value
• Contribute to technical discussions by identifying risks, proposing solutions, and constructively challenging assumptions when needed
• Evaluate and introduce tools and practices where appropriate—but with a focus on solving real problems rather than adopting technology for its own sake
• Contribute to a culture of collaboration, shared ownership, and continuous improvement across the engineering organization

Requirements:

• 7+ years of total IT or software engineering experience, including at least 4 years in a DevOps, infrastructure, or automation-focused role
• Strong experience with CI/CD concepts and tooling (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or similar)
• Hands-on experience with Infrastructure as Code tools such as Terraform
• Experience working with AWS services across compute, storage, networking, and monitoring
• Working knowledge of containerization technologies such as Docker, ECS and Kubernetes
• Strong scripting or programming skills (Python, Java, or Shell)
• Demonstrated ability to independently drive technical work and deliver measurable improvements
• Experience collaborating closely with developers to improve deployment, release, and operational workflows
• Strong communication skills and the ability to build trust across teams
• Comfort working in environments with evolving priorities, competing demands, and a mix of project and operational responsibilities
• Experience supporting enterprise SaaS applications in production environments
• Experience improving or modernizing existing infrastructure or deployment processes while maintaining production stability
• Familiarity with monitoring and observability platforms (CloudWatch, Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog)
• Exposure to security and compliance frameworks (SOC 2, FedRAMP, ISO 27001)
• Experience with Agile, DevOps, and DevSecOps practices
