DevOps Engineer
At FirmPilot, we are looking for a mid-level DevOps Engineer who is excited about Continuous Delivery and enjoys building reliable, frequent deployment pipelines. You're someone people can trust: honest when something isn't working, disciplined in your day-to-day execution, curious enough to dig into root causes, and consistent in how you show up. You're comfortable with AWS, Terraform, and GitHub Actions, and you'll work closely with our dev team, with direct ownership of our infrastructure and monitoring.
Team & Reporting
You'll work in close, daily collaboration with our development team
Daily standups to stay aligned on priorities, blockers, and in-flight work
Daytime on-call rotation for incident response during business hours
Our Tech Stack & Environment
Event-driven microservices using AWS SNS/SQS
Containerized applications running on AWS ECS Fargate as the primary compute platform, with select workloads on EKS
.NET backend with room for polyglot services (Python, etc.)
Next.js frontend optimized for performance
Infrastructure as Code using Terraform across multiple AWS accounts and environments
CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions
Feature flag-based progressive rollouts
Monitoring & Observability with Datadog
What You'll Do
Build Continuous Delivery pipelines that enable safe, frequent production deployments
Manage and optimize cloud infrastructure for performance, cost efficiency, and reliability
Evaluate and implement infrastructure solutions and best practices as new needs arise
Support security best practices across containerized services
Own observability and monitoring across backend and frontend systems
Participate in daytime on-call rotation and contribute to incident response and postmortem processes
What You Bring
Solid understanding of Continuous Delivery principles and real-world implementation using Terraform and GitHub Actions
Experience managing AWS infrastructure at scale — including multi-account environments, IAM, ECS Fargate, SNS/SQS, and event-driven architectures
Strong background in containerization and Docker
Familiarity with security best practices for cloud-native environments
Comfortable using monitoring tools to identify and diagnose performance issues across the stack, including frontend systems
Strong general troubleshooting skills, with the ability to track down root causes across distributed, event-driven systems
Experience with feature flags and progressive rollout strategies
Kubernetes experience is a plus — we have workloads on EKS today and are expanding our footprint there
Honesty and consistency: you do what you say you'll do, and you're upfront when something's off
Curiosity and discipline: you dig into problems rather than guessing, and you follow through on the boring-but-important parts of the job
High emotional intelligence: comfortable asking for help, quick to own and surface your own mistakes
Additional Responsibilities
Support internal employee technology requests, including device setup, troubleshooting, software installation, and access issues
Provision and deprovision employee accounts across company systems as part of onboarding and offboarding processes
Manage company-issued hardware, including laptops, peripherals, inventory tracking, replacements, and lifecycle management
Maintain user access permissions and assist with identity and access management best practices
Support endpoint security initiatives, including device compliance, access controls, and security best practices
Document internal IT processes and maintain technical documentation to support a growing organization
If you are ready to grow your skills in Continuous Delivery, event-driven systems, and modern cloud engineering, we want to hear from you. Apply now and let's build something incredible together.
