Description
Gappify is looking for a highly skilled and experienced Senior Software Engineer (DevOps) to spearhead the evolution of our cloud infrastructure, automation, and security practices. This is a unique opportunity for a technically deep individual with a strong passion for both software development and operations. As a senior member of the team, you will drive critical initiatives in infrastructure automation, security, and continuous delivery, collaborating closely with product and engineering teams to build and maintain a highly scalable, secure, and resilient platform. While the title is Senior Software Engineer, the core focus of this role will be on applying your software engineering expertise to optimize our development lifecycle, infrastructure, and deployment processes.

What You Will Do:
  • Cloud Infrastructure Leadership: Architect, implement, and maintain a scalable, secure, and high-performance cloud infrastructure, primarily on AWS.
  • CI/CD Pipeline Innovation: Design and optimize sophisticated CI/CD pipelines to achieve zero-downtime deployments and ensure high availability of our applications.
  • Security and Compliance Champion: Develop and enforce robust security best practices, implement compliance frameworks (e.g., SOC 2), and drive risk mitigation strategies across our infrastructure and applications.
  • Infrastructure as Code Advocate: Lead the adoption and expansion of infrastructure-as-code (IaC) using tools like Terraform and Ansible to ensure infrastructure consistency and repeatability.
  • Containerization and Orchestration Expertise: Champion the use of containerization technologies (Docker, Kubernetes) and contribute to our microservices orchestration strategy.
  • Observability and Reliability Engineering: Implement and optimize comprehensive monitoring, logging, and incident response solutions using tools like Opentelemetry, Grafana, Prometheus, ELK, Cloudwatch, and Opsgenie.
  • Security Automation: Automate security processes, including integration with penetration testing tools and implementation of threat modeling outcomes.
  • Cost Optimization: Drive strategies for optimizing cloud resource utilization and improving overall infrastructure efficiency.
  • SDLC Integration: Collaborate closely with development teams to integrate security and DevOps best practices throughout the software development lifecycle.
  • Technical Guidance and Mentorship: Provide technical guidance and mentorship to other engineers on DevOps principles, cloud technologies, and automation techniques.
  • Continuous Improvement and Innovation: Stay at the forefront of emerging DevOps and cloud security trends, actively evaluating and implementing new tools and practices to enhance our infrastructure and processes.
  • AI/ML in DevOps: Actively explore, evaluate, and implement AI/ML or LLM-based technologies to optimize DevOps workflows, enhance efficiency, and drive innovation within the engineering organization.

What You Will Bring to the Team
  •  Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
  • 7+ years of hands-on experience in software engineering with a strong focus on DevOps, Cloud Engineering, or SRE principles.
  • Expert-level proficiency with AWS cloud services and a deep understanding of cloud architecture best practices.
  • Proven expertise in designing and implementing CI/CD automation using tools such as Jenkins, Bitbucket Pipelines, or GitHub Actions.
  • Strong understanding of containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and microservices architecture, with a focus on security considerations.
  • Extensive experience with infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform, CloudFormation, Ansible).
  • Solid understanding of network security principles, IAM policies, encryption methods, and cloud compliance frameworks.
  • Proficiency in scripting and automation using languages like Python and Bash.
  • Deep experience with monitoring and observability tools (Opentelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, CloudWatch).
  • Demonstrated ability to provide technical guidance and mentorship to engineering teams.
  • Experience with incident response procedures and disaster recovery planning.
  • Familiarity with software development in languages such as PHP (ideally with Laravel) and Java is a plus.
  • Experience with front-end technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, ) and databases (SQL, NoSQL) is beneficial.
  • Active interest and hands-on experience in applying AI/ML or LLM-based technologies to optimize DevOps practices.
  • AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional, AWS DevOps Engineer – Professional, or equivalent certification is a strong plus.
