Why this role matters:

The CloudOps team is currently seeking a DevOps Engineer to assist in developing and expanding our core cloud platform. The goal is to create a resilient, compliant, and secure platform for our flexible and scalable voice, messaging, video, and data capabilities across Unified Communications, contact centers, and communication APIs. You will collaborate with cross-functional software, platform, and test engineering teams to give them the necessary low-level cloud networking, security, identity, and CI at scale. 

 

What you will do

  • Utilize infrastructure as code (IaC) tools, such as Terraform or Ansible, to automate the provisioning of cloud resources, integrating Crossplane to extend IaC capabilities across multiple cloud providers.
  • Deploy, and manage Kubernetes clusters, ensuring scalability, performance, and reliability.
  • Develop, maintain, and optimize CI/CD pipelines for automated testing, building, and deployment of applications within Kubernetes environments, incorporating package management tools to handle application dependencies.
  • Deploy and manage Crossplane in Kubernetes clusters to unify and automate multi-cloud infrastructure provisioning and management.
  • Design and implement least privilege access policies to ensure users and services have only the permissions necessary to perform their functions.
  • Regularly review and update IAM policies and roles to adapt to changing project requirements and security best practices.
  • Configure and Deploy Cloud Armor, Security Command Center, AWS GuardDuty, AWS WAF, and AWS Shield Advanced at scale for comprehensive cloud security management and threat mitigation.
  • Set up and build IAC modules to produce AWS accounts and GCP projects based on approved blueprints, ensuring standardized infrastructure compliance and security protocols.

The Stack

  • Python with FastAPI
  • AWS, GCP, Capella, Enterprise Redis, Mongo
  • CloudFormation, Terraform (Atlantis) & Ansible 
  • Docker & Kubernetes
  • Anything else needed to achieve our goals

What you will bring:

  • Must have 5+ years of experience working with DevOps, CI/CD, GitOps & Agile methodologies.
  • Strong hands-on experience with deployment and infrastructure orchestration frameworks (Terraform, Ansible, CloudFormation)
  • Experience configuring and building CI/CD pipelines and deployment automation via Github, AWS Code Suite, and GCP Cloud Build.
  • Experience with Python or any other high-level, general-purpose programming language.
  • Understanding of the main components of Kubernetes, including the Kubernetes API.
  • Experience in building and maintaining Kubernetes (EKS & GKE) clusters and managing applications running in enterprise-scale EKS.
  • Basic understanding of GitOps in Kubernetes context, preferably Argo CD as an application delivery tool.
  • Experience developing reusable code blocks that enable building complex cloud-native frameworks (Python, Go).
  • Practical experience of deploying and running code in a modern application environment using Docker & Kubernetes.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
