DevOps Engineer II

Mountville Inc. is a forward-thinking company committed to leveraging modern technology to drive innovation and efficiency. We are seeking a talented DevOps Engineer II to join our small, high-impact platform team, focusing on building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines, managing Azure cloud services, and ensuring the reliability and security of our containerized applications.

Responsibilities:

• CI/CD Pipeline Development: Design, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions and Azure DevOps to automate build, test, and deployment
• Version Control: Manage source code repositories in Git and GitHub, championing sound branching strategies and code-review practices
• Cloud Infrastructure Management: Configure, deploy, and manage Azure cloud resources with an emphasis on availability, security, and scalability
• Kubernetes Operations: Deploy, operate, scale, and troubleshoot containerized applications on Kubernetes — including day-to-day operational support and incident recovery
• Infrastructure as Code: Define and manage infrastructure declaratively using Terraform, and apply GitOps practices to keep deployed state in sync with version control
• Monitoring and Logging: Build and maintain monitoring, logging, and alerting so we catch issues before our users do
• Security: Apply security best practices across the platform, including secrets management, access control, vulnerability assessment, and patching
• Automation: Spot manual toil in the development lifecycle and replace it with scripts and tooling that make the team faster
• Collaboration: Partner with development teams to understand their needs and give them the tools and support for a smooth path to production

Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent hands-on experience)
• Proven experience in a DevOps role with a strong grasp of CI/CD practices
• Hands-on experience with Git and GitHub — repository management, branching strategies, and code reviews
• Strong, practical experience with GitHub Actions and Azure DevOps for pipeline creation and management
• Solid experience managing cloud services and infrastructure on Azure
• Genuine hands-on Kubernetes experience — deploying, operating, scaling, and troubleshooting real workloads (not just spinning up a cluster)
• Experience defining infrastructure with Terraform
• Strong Linux administration skills, including shell scripting and system configuration
• Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to troubleshoot complex, cross-system issues
• Strong communication skills and a collaborative approach with cross-functional teams
• Ability to juggle multiple projects and prioritize effectively in a small-team environment
• Experience with GitOps workflows for Kubernetes
• Familiarity with monitoring and observability tooling such as Datadog and Application Insights
• Knowledge of microservices architecture and containerization best practices
• Comfort working alongside modern AI-assisted development tooling
• Experience with other cloud platforms (AWS, GCP) is a plus
