This is a foundational role within TrueML Products' Platform Operations team, designed for a high-energy technologist eager to rapidly advance their knowledge in a cloud-native environment. As a DevOps Engineer I, your critical goals will be to assist in the evolution of our internal developer platform and Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) architecture, focusing on precision and efficiency.
The ideal candidate is a proactive learner who considers leveraging GenAI and AI code assistants second-nature for accelerating onboarding and completing well-defined tasks, but doesn’t rely on them as a substitute for solving problems.
You will not be focused solely on closing tickets, but rather on building self-service tools and platforms that reduce cognitive load for developers and increase deployment velocity.
What You'll Do:
-
Build small to medium-sized infrastructure components using Terraform and AWS.
-
Ensure reliable build-and-deploy cycles by maintaining and debugging CI/CD workflows, including GitHub Actions and ArgoCD.
-
Learn to troubleshoot and resolve issues in containerized environments, including Kubernetes pods and EKS networking bottlenecks.
-
Leverage GenAI and AI code assistants to accelerate your onboarding and complete well-defined automation tasks.
-
Validate AI-generated code for correctness and style according to team standards.
-
Contribute to system reliability by participating in the on-call rotation and swiftly responding to system alerts.
-
Utilize logging and observability tools (Datadog, Observe) to efficiently gather information during troubleshooting.
-
Own the quality of your work by testing and documenting your code, ensuring bug fixes are implemented reliably across all environments (dev, staging, production).
-
Engage actively in team ceremonies, including sprint planning and daily standups.
-
Clearly communicate project status and implementation details to the broader team.
-
Partner with senior engineers to understand and maximize the business and customer impact of your work.
Who You Are:
-
You possess a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
-
You have 1–2 years of relevant experience in DevOps, SRE, or Software Engineering.
-
You are familiar with at least one programming language (Python, Go, or Bash) and basic Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) practices.
-
You have general knowledge of cloud engineering (AWS) and containerization (Docker/Kubernetes).
-
You demonstrate a commitment to self-improvement and the "grit" necessary to follow through on challenging new tasks.
