Interviews Chat: DevOps Engineer

This DevOps Engineer role requires a mid-level professional with approximately 3+ years of experience in DevOps, backend engineering, infrastructure, or site reliability engineering. The candidate should possess strong expertise in managing and optimizing cloud deployments across platforms such as Vercel, AWS, and DigitalOcean, with a solid understanding of serverless functions and modern deployment workflows. Proficiency in designing, maintaining, and automating CI/CD pipelines for diverse application types—including web (Next.js/React, Node.js), Electron desktop apps, Chrome extensions, and mobile apps—is essential. Experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools like Terraform or Pulumi is important to automate and manage scalable infrastructure effectively. The role demands a focus on system performance, reliability, cost efficiency, and security best practices, including compliance with data regulations. Familiarity with monitoring and observability tools such as Datadog, Grafana, or Prometheus is required to ensure operational excellence. The ideal candidate is a self-starter who takes full ownership of infrastructure end-to-end and collaborates closely with development teams to streamline deployments. While not mandatory, experience with Electron, Chrome extensions, or mobile CI/CD pipelines is a plus. A bachelor's degree underpins the educational background, supporting the technical knowledge needed. This position offers the opportunity to influence infrastructure decisions and shape DevOps culture in a fast-growing AI startup, emphasizing ownership, scalability, and security in a fully remote and flexible environment.
