About the Role:
We are looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to join our engineering team. This is a part-time, hourly-based engagement (~60 hours per month), fully remote.
You'll take ownership of cloud infrastructure on Azure, working closely with software engineers and architects to design reliable, scalable, and secure cloud-native solutions. The role requires someone who can operate independently, prioritize effectively within a limited time budget, and deliver high-impact infrastructure improvements without hand-holding.
What You'll Do:
Design, implement, and maintain cloud infrastructure on Azure
Develop Python scripts and automation tools to streamline infrastructure management, deployments, and operational workflows
Build, maintain, and improve CI/CD pipelines to support fast and reliable software delivery
Automate infrastructure provisioning and configuration using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Pulumi, or equivalent)
Monitor infrastructure performance, troubleshoot production issues, and ensure system reliability and uptime
Optimize cloud environments for scalability, cost efficiency, and security
Implement and enforce cloud security best practices across all environments
Collaborate closely with software engineers and architects on cloud-native architecture decisions
What We're Looking For:
5+ years of commercial experience as a DevOps or Cloud Infrastructure Engineer
Strong hands-on experience with Microsoft Azure in production environments
Solid experience with Infrastructure as Code tools (Terraform, Pulumi, CloudFormation, or similar)
Proven experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, or equivalent)
Strong Linux administration skills — comfortable in the terminal and confident in production systems
Experience with monitoring and logging solutions (Datadog, Grafana, ELK stack, CloudWatch, or similar)
Solid understanding of networking fundamentals — VPC, DNS, load balancing, firewalls, and security groups
Experience implementing cloud security best practices — IAM, secrets management, network segmentation
Ability to work autonomously and manage time effectively within a part-time engagement
Upper-Intermediate or Advanced English — clear written and spoken communication
Nice to Have:
Experience with Kubernetes or container orchestration in production
Familiarity with Python scripting for infrastructure automation
Background in HR Tech, SaaS, or product company environments
Experience with multi-cloud or hybrid cloud setups
Knowledge of cloud cost optimization strategies
