DevOps Engineer III

Role Summary

You will architect, scale, and automate the multi-cloud computing fabric powering millions of requests per second. As noted by roadmap.sh, standard requirements include “Hands-on experience with CI/CD tools Good experience in infrastructure as code tools”, but this tier demands deep kernel-level tuning, writing custom Kubernetes controllers, and achieving absolute zero-downtime global deployments.

Core Responsibilities

Platform Engineering: Design and code custom Kubernetes controllers, mutating admission webhooks, and operators in python, go or Rust.

Chaos & Resilience: Engineer automated chaos engineering frameworks that continuously inject failures into multi-region active-active production topologies.

Advanced FinOps & Compute Optimization: Programmatically optimize micro-architecture CPU pinning, eBPF network routing, and spot-instance arbitrage to slash millions in cloud waste.

Zero-Trust Security Mesh: Embed immutable security, real-time eBPF runtime auditing, and automated cryptographic attestation directly into core CI/CD release loops.

Elite Requirements & Skills

Systems Programming: Mastery of Go, Rust, or C++ alongside expert-level Python/Bash for deep systems automation.

Kernel & Networking: Deep understanding of Linux kernel tuning, eBPF (Extended Berkeley Packet Filter), service meshes (Istio/Cilium internals), and BGP routing.

Distributed Consensus: Real-world intuition for Raft/Paxos algorithms, global database replication lag, and CAP theorem trade-offs at scale.

Certifications (Expected baseline): CKA, AWS/GCP Professional Architect or Security Specialty.
