DevOps EngineerLocation: USA/Canada - Remote
About the RoleMojio's DevOps function is lean and hands-on. You'll join a small team responsible for our AWS-based infrastructure, security posture, and internal IT needs, working alongside another DevOps engineer to keep things running smoothly rather than covering everything solo. This is an individual-contributor role: you won't be managing a team, but you will have real, direct ownership over production infrastructure. A self-directed, dependable, detail-oriented approach matters more than seniority or years of experience.
Key Responsibilities- Manage and maintain Mojio's AWS infrastructure - EKS, RDS, VPC/networking, IAM, CloudFront, ECR, and related services - supporting a worldwide, ISO 27001-aligned production environment.
- Operate and troubleshoot our Kubernetes-based platform (including Knative workloads and Helm charts), and support GitOps-based deployment workflows (e.g., Argo CD, Flux) and CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions).
- Own day-to-day security operations: triage and remediate vulnerabilities (CVEs, dependency and container scanning findings via tools like Snyk), apply patches, and maintain our security scanning/compliance posture (e.g., AWS Security Hub).
- Manage access and identity administration - provisioning and de-provisioning AWS/VPN/Okta/GitHub access, handling employee onboarding and offboarding requests, and responding to day-to-day IT and access-request tickets from the team.
- Support monitoring and alerting (Grafana, Prometheus, PagerDuty) and participate in an on-call rotation to help resolve production issues and outages.
- Assist with cost optimization efforts (e.g., right-sizing, Spot Instance usage, cost visibility tooling) and infrastructure-as-code practices (Terraform).
- Work with the Engineering team on making infrastructure and deployment processes simpler and more self-serve over time.
Basic Qualifications- 3+ years of hands-on DevOps, infrastructure, or site reliability experience, ideally at a small-to-medium sized startup/organization where you owned tasks end-to-end.
- Real-world, production experience with AWS (EKS, S3, Route 53, MSK, RDS, VPC, IAM, CloudFront, or similar core services).
- Proven experience with Kubernetes, including deploying, managing and scaling containerized applications.
- Strong understanding of containerization technologies such as Docker.
- Experience with Kustomize and managing helm charts for packing and deploying Kubernetes workloads.
- Experience building infrastructure as a code using Terraform/Terragrunt.
- Proficiency in scripting or programming languages such as Python, Go or Bash.
- Comfort with source control (Git) and CI/CD tooling (GitHub Actions or equivalent).
- Basic security fundamentals - experience patching vulnerabilities, responding to scan findings, or working within a compliance framework (e.g., ISO 27001, SOC 2).
- Basic understanding of networking principles and a strong commitment to cybersecurity best practices.
- Some exposure to IT/access administration (VPN, SSO/Okta, GitHub or cloud IAM permissions) and comfort supporting non-engineering stakeholders with access requests.
- A self-starting, can-do attitude - comfortable owning a broad scope independently and communicating clearly with stakeholders across the company.
Preferred Qualifications- Experience operating high availability, production clusters
- Experience with technologies such as GitOps(FluxCD, ArgoCD), OpenTofu, SQL Databases, secret management(Vault), cost-visibility tools (KubeCost, OpenCost), Karpenter, Couchbase.
- Experience in the connected car, IoT, or cloud SaaS field.
- Exposure to Elastic stack, Prometheus stack, and PagerDuty-style monitoring and incident response.
- Experience managing multi-account AWS organizations (SCPs, OUs, cross-account IAM access)
- Comfort using AI-assisted tools in day-to-day DevOps work. (e.g., AI coding/IaC assistants for writing and reviewing infrastructure code, or AI-enhanced monitoring for anomaly detection and faster incident triage).
