About the role

This is a hands-on, high-impact role where you’ll drive key initiatives across deployment, observability, developer productivity, and cloud cost management. You’ll work closely with application engineers, QA, and cross-functional stakeholders like Security and Finance to ensure our systems are reliable, scalable, and cost-efficient.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Own and evolve our DevOps and platform engineering function, from build and deployment pipelines to monitoring, infrastructure as code, and cost optimization.
  • Design and maintain CI/CD pipelines that are secure, scalable, and built to support rapid product iterations without sacrificing stability.
  • Improve observability via Datadog, GCP, and custom dashboards, including FinOps focused observability outcomes.
  • Implement and maintain FinOps governance, including showback and chargeback models, to drive cost accountability across engineering teams.
  • Enable developer productivity by creating internal tooling, reusable modules, and simplifying infrastructure for other engineering teams.
  • Help teams define and measure SLOs setting the standard for how we think about system health and reliability.
  • Serve as a FinOps thought leader, collaborating with Product and Engineering to define the most cost-effective architectural patterns for new services and features.
  • Play a key role in shaping our engineering culture, DevOps best practices, and influencing our long-term DevOps roadmap.
  • Work cross-functionally with product engineering, security, finance, and other teams to align technical spending with business unit economics and financial goals.

What You'll Need

  • 6+ years of experience in DevOps, SRE, or software engineering roles, ideally in high-growth startup environments.
  • Proficiency in Python or Go, with strong software engineering fundamentals.
  • Proven ownership of production infrastructure and platform tooling, with strong debugging skills and the ability to troubleshoot complex distributed systems and diagnose unforeseen financial spikes.
  • Deep experience with Kubernetes and tools like ArgoCD, Helm, and Terraform.
  • Familiarity with GCP (preferred) or other major cloud providers, with a deep focus on cloud cost management, leveraging reserved instances/savings plans, and implementing cost anomaly detection.
  • Hands-on experience with dedicated FinOps tooling (e.g., Kubecost, AWS Cost Explorer, GCP Cloud Billing, DoIT Cloud Intelligence) or building custom tooling for cost allocation and reporting.
  • Strong experience building CI/CD pipelines and internal developer tooling from the ground up.
  • Hands-on experience with observability tools like Prometheus or Datadog, and participation in an on-call rotation.
  • Experience with FedRAMP certification is a plus.

Benefits

  • Generous compensation in cash and equity.
  • Early exercise for all options, including pre-vested.
  • Work from anywhere: Remote-first Culture.
  • Flexible paid time off and Year-end break.
  • Health insurance, dental, and vision coverage for employees and dependents - US and Canada specific.
  • 4% matching in 401k / RRSP - US and Canada specific.
  • MacBook Pro delivered to your door.
  • One-time stipend to set up a home office — desk, chair, screen, etc.
  • Monthly meal stipend.
  • Monthly social meet-up stipend.
