DevOps/Platform Engineer

Your role Overview: Build and run a reliable platform for services and data workflows across Kubernetes and Prefect.

Own CI/CD, observability, security, and developer experience for Python/Go/Rust services.

Responsibilities: Design, provision, and operate Kubernetes workloads (deployments, networking, autoscaling, storage).

Build and maintain GitLab CI/CD pipelines for Python, Go, and Rust services (build, test, scan, release).

Operate Prefect (agents, work queues, deployments, concurrency limits, task execution environments).

Implement environment strategy and promotion flow (dev/staging/prod) with clear release gates.

Create golden paths and templates for FastAPI microservices and Prefect flows.

Manage secrets, configuration, and access (e.g., GitLab variables, K8s secrets).

Establish observability: logging, metrics, traces, alerting, runbooks, and SLOs.

Operate data stores (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis): provisioning, backups, migration execution, monitoring, and capacity planning.

Optimise build and runtime costs (container images, caching, autoscaling, resource requests/limits).

Lead incident response, postmortems, and reliability improvements.

Your profile You have: 4+ years in DevOps/SRE/Platform roles with production Kubernetes.

Strong GitLab CI/CD experience (pipelines, runners, caching, artifact management).

Proficiency with containers and image optimization; comfortable with Linux internals and networking.

Hands-on with Prefect in production (deployments, flow orchestration, storage, results).

Familiar with operating MySQL/PostgreSQL/Redis in production (availability, performance, backups).

Scripting/automation with Python or Go; ability to read Rust build pipelines.

Solid understanding of security fundamentals (least privilege, image scanning, SBOM, secret hygiene).

Experience instrumenting systems and creating actionable alerts.

Nice to have: Helm/Kustomize, policy-as-code (OPA), and basic gRPC.

Performance tuning for high‑throughput data or API services.

Experience in multi‑tenant or multi‑cluster environments.
