DevOps + Go (Platform Engineer )
About this role
Accountabilities You will take ownership of infrastructure improvements, platform tooling, and deployment workflows across a diverse technology landscape. Your responsibilities will include:
• Design, build, maintain, and optimize scalable CI/CD pipelines using GitLab CI/CD. • Support and improve infrastructure across multiple products, including on-premise, cloud-based, and hybrid environments. • Develop, maintain, and refactor internal platform tools and services in Go, including a next-generation replacement for the existing deployment system. • Independently investigate infrastructure environments, identify weaknesses and bottlenecks, and implement measurable improvements. • Optimize staging and ephemeral environments to improve performance, reliability, and operating costs. • Manage infrastructure as code using Terraform and Ansible. • Strengthen observability through Grafana, OpenSearch, metrics, monitoring, and alerting systems. • Participate in operational support and troubleshooting activities as part of a shared team responsibility. • Collaborate with R&D, QA, SRE, and infrastructure teams to improve developer workflows and accelerate software delivery. • Work across both modern technology stacks and legacy systems, including Windows Server and Hyper-V environments.
Requirements
The ideal candidate combines strong DevOps and platform engineering expertise with recent production-level Go development experience. You should demonstrate technical independence, sound systems thinking, and a practical approach to solving complex infrastructure challenges. Key qualifications include:
• At least 3–5 years of DevOps or Platform Engineering experience at a senior level. • Hands-on experience deploying, maintaining, and troubleshooting on-premise infrastructure, including hardware and infrastructure-level issues. • Practical experience with at least one major cloud provider: AWS, Azure, or GCP. • Recent production experience with Go, including developing tools, exporters, automation solutions, or backend services rather than relying solely on scripts. • Strong hands-on experience with Kubernetes. • Solid knowledge of GitLab CI/CD. • Strong Linux administration and troubleshooting skills. • Practical experience with Infrastructure as Code tools such as Terraform and Ansible. • Experience with observability and monitoring technologies, including Grafana, ELK/OpenSearch, Prometheus, or VictoriaMetrics. • Willingness and ability to work with legacy systems and Windows environments, including Windows Server, Hyper-V, and PowerShell. • A strong ownership mindset, with the ability to take initiatives from initial investigation through delivery and measurable results. • Independent problem-solving skills and confidence navigating unfamiliar systems without step-by-step guidance. • Systems thinking and the ability to understand the full software delivery lifecycle, from code to production. • Clear, pragmatic communication skills and an iterative approach that avoids unnecessary complexity. • A collaborative attitude, low ego, and strong accountability.
