  • Configure and manage Cloudflare services, including proxying, geo-aware load balancing, and workers.
  • Collaborate with engineering teams to support the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) and enforce effective branching patterns.
  • Uphold security best practices across all infrastructure and deployment processes.
  • Provide on-call support for global production environments during emergency scenarios.

You bring the following QUALIFICATIONS:
  • 5+ years of experience in DevOps or a related technical role.
  • Strong programming and scripting proficiency in Golang, with an understanding of OOP concepts (familiarity with Python and TypeScript is a plus).
  • Proven experience in architectural design for distributed systems.
  • Solid experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) and container orchestration (Kubernetes, Helm).
  • Deep understanding of CI/CD pipelines and observability tools (Loki, Prometheus, Grafana).
  • Familiarity with Google Cloud Platform (GCP) or other major cloud providers.
  • Working knowledge of networking, web protocols, and Bash scripting.
  • Experience with database technologies such as MySQL and Postgres.
  • Ability to support a global, 24/7 production environment with a focus on security and reliability.
