Senior DevOps Engineer (#5323)

Colombia, European Union, Ukraine
Work type:
Office/Remote
Technical Level:
Senior
Job Category:
Software Development
Project:
Premier corporate digital protection company

Our Client is a global leader in corporate brand protection and domain management, serving Fortune 500 and large enterprises with domain registration, online brand monitoring, and anti-counterfeiting services. 

An established Jenkins-based CI/CD pipeline exists for the legacy Java portal and will be adapted to deploy the new portal into AWS. A significant part of this role is modernizing deployment: the current portal and legacy systems are deployed manually on-prem, so a key focus will be moving toward automated, repeatable, cloud-based delivery, along with building out scalability and observability for the PHP application as it grows.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of commercial DevOps / SRE / infrastructure engineering experience
  • Strong hands-on experience designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines, with practical Jenkins expertise
  • Deep, hands-on experience with AWS (compute, networking, IAM, deployment, and cost-aware architecture)
  • Experience deploying, scaling, and operating PHP (Laravel) applications in production
  • Infrastructure as Code expertise (Terraform, CloudFormation, or equivalent)
  • Containerization and orchestration (Docker plus ECS / EKS / Kubernetes)
  • Strong observability skills — metrics, logging, and tracing (e.g. Prometheus / Grafana, CloudWatch, ELK, Datadog)
  • Solid scripting/automation skills (Bash, Python, or similar)
  • Working knowledge of MySQL and RabbitMQ in production environments (scaling, monitoring, tuning)
  • Experience migrating manual / on-prem deployments to automated cloud-based pipelines
  • Sound understanding of system security, secrets management, and networking fundamentals
  • Ability to work in a distributed, multi-timezone team (US / UK / Brazil)
  • Excellent English communication skills

Nice to Have

  • Experience with AI-assisted development tools (Copilot, Claude, Cursor)
  • Background in SaaS, multi-tenant platforms, or large-scale B2B portals
  • Experience standing up observability/scalability practices on a greenfield or modernizing platform
  • Familiarity with Nuxt.js / Vue.js build and deployment workflows

Responsibilities

  • Adapt and extend the existing Jenkins CI/CD pipeline to deploy the consolidated PHP / Nuxt.js portal into AWS
  • Lead the transition from manual on-prem deployment of the portal and legacy systems toward automated, repeatable cloud delivery
  • Design and implement scalability for the PHP / Laravel application — autoscaling, load handling, performance under growth
  • Build out observability — monitoring, logging, tracing, alerting — to give the team clear visibility into system health
  • Define and maintain infrastructure as code for reproducible, version-controlled environments
  • Collaborate with the engineering team on deployment, environment, and release strategy
  • Troubleshoot production and infrastructure issues and contribute to root-cause analysis
  • Apply security and operational best practices across pipelines and infrastructure
  • Engage with Client engineering counterparts in US / UK / Brazil on integration points and delivery milestones
  • Participate in Agile ceremonies (stand-ups, planning, retros, demos)

We offer*:

  • Flexible working format - remote, office-based or flexible
  • A competitive salary and good compensation package
  • Personalized career growth
  • Professional development tools (mentorship program, tech talks and trainings, centers of excellence, and more)
  • Active tech communities with regular knowledge sharing
  • Education reimbursement
  • Memorable anniversary presents
  • Corporate events and team buildings
  • Other location-specific benefits
