About the Client
Our client is a fast-scaling, technology-driven company operating at the intersection of digital infrastructure and modern supply chain solutions. With a strong emphasis on innovation, automation, and cross-functional collaboration, the organization is deeply invested in cloud- technologies and platform scalability. Theyre on a mission to enable seamless product delivery through highly reliable, performant, and secure infrastructure systems. About the Role
Our client is seeking a hands-on Head of DevOps Engineering to lead the charge in redefining their infrastructure, platform operations, and incident response strategy. This is a deeply technical leadership role suited for a Principal-level DevOps or SRE architect who thrives on building scalable systems, driving automation, and fostering a high-ownership engineering culture. Youll be responsible for setting vision and execution across infrastructure, CI/CD, Kubernetes environments, and observabilitywhile mentoring a growing team. Responsibilities
Architect & Automate : Lead the design and implementation of repeatable, Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) environmentsgoverning over 90% of infra via Terraform and GitOps principles. CI/CD Ownership : Redesign and own artifact-based deployment pipelines enabling safe, self-service deployments using tools like ArgoCD, Helm, and Docker. Platform Engineering : Build multi-account, multi-region Kubernetes infrastructure leveraging EKS/ECS, with intelligent autoscaling (Karpenter, HPA) and containerized workloads. Cost Optimization : Lead cloud cost control initiatives, including SPOT instance utilization, rightsizing, tagging strategies, and architectural remediationdriving measurable efficiency gains (25%+ reduction). Observability & Reliability : Roll out comprehensive observability toolingcentralized logging, alerting, tracingand establish actionable IR runbooks and downtime mitigation strategies. Team Leadership & Culture : Mentor DevOps/SRE engineers, establishing a culture of speed, operational excellence, and continuous feedback. Cross-functional Enablement : Collaborate with engineering and product teams to foster GitOps workflows and enable safe, low-trust deployments that reduce operational friction.
