We are seeking a DevOps Engineer II to join the Critical Start Technologies Private Ltd. team, operating under the Critical Start umbrella, for our India operations. The ideal candidate brings 3-5 years of hands-on experience in cloud-native infrastructure, CI/CD automation, and Infrastructure as Code. You bring advanced skills in AWS and Terraform, a strong understanding of scalable systems, and a mindset geared toward security, resilience, and automation-first practices.
The ideal candidate has worked in complex environments with microservices, container orchestration, and multi-account AWS structures. You take pride in building robust DevOps pipelines and actively contribute to architectural and operational decisions. Experience leading small initiatives or mentoring junior engineers is a plus.
As a DevOps Engineer II, you will be a technical contributor and enabler for scalable infrastructure delivery and automation practices. Your role involves:
- Owning and improving the infrastructure codebase: maintaining reusable and modular Terraform configurations, setting standards for code structure, and contributing to design documentation.
- Building and evolving CI/CD pipelines: designing resilient and secure build/deploy pipelines using GitHub Actions, AWS CodePipeline, or equivalent.
- Monitoring and Observability: developing dashboards and proactive alerting with CloudWatch, Prometheus, or New Relic to ensure high availability and quick recovery.
- Infrastructure Security and Compliance: implementing IAM best practices, Secrets Manager, least privilege policies, and conducting periodic audits.
- Optimizing cloud spend and performance through rightsizing, auto-scaling, and cost monitoring strategies.
- Collaborating closely with development, QA, and security teams to support full software delivery lifecycle from development through production.
- Participating in incident response and postmortem analysis.
Required Qualifications:
- 3-5 years of professional experience in DevOps, SRE, or Cloud Engineering roles.
- Advanced Terraform experience, including custom module design, remote state management, and backend locking.
- Deep knowledge of AWS services (VPC, IAM, ECS/Fargate, EC2, RDS, ALB/NLB, S3, CloudWatch, Secrets Manager, etc.).
- Strong background in Linux systems administration, including networking and performance tuning.
- Proven expertise in Docker, ECS/EKS, and secure image lifecycle.
- Strong scripting and automation skills using Bash, Python, or Go.
- Experience with GitOps, infrastructure promotion strategies, and artifact management.
- Familiarity with log aggregation and tracing (e.g., Fluentd, Open Telemetry, Sentry).
- Exposure to infrastructure testing frameworks (e.g., Terratest, InSpec).
- Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills.
- Bachelors or Masters degree in Computer Science or related field.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Additional scripting experience is a strong plus.
- Knowledge of security and compliance frameworks like SOC2, CIS Benchmarks, or ISO 27001 is a plus.
- Experience working in regulated environments or with customer-facing infrastructure.
- Contributions to open-source infrastructure tools or Terraform modules.
- Exposure to Kubernetes or hybrid cloud platforms.
- Experience with IaC scanning tools like Checkov, tfsec, or Bridgecrew.
