DevOps & Infrastructure Architect

• Infrastructure Architecture: Own, architect, and optimize our production environment hosted on Coolify (VPS/Docker-managed), ensuring maximum uptime and performance for our FastAPI backend.
• Staging & Preview Pipelines: Manage and fine-tune our staging environments deployed on Vercel for our Next.js frontend and temporary backend previews.
• CI/CD Automation: Build automated, repeatable Git-driven deployment pipelines that safely transition code from local development -> Vercel staging -> Coolify production.
• Database Management: Oversee operations, automated backups, pooling, and smooth Alembic database migrations targeting our Supabase instance.
• Monitoring & Logging: Implement lightweight, effective monitoring, alerting, and logging so we know about issues before our users do.

Our Tech Stack

• Frontend: Next.js (Tailwind CSS, ShadCN)
• Backend: FastAPI, SQLAlchemy, Alembic
• Hosting: Coolify (Production), Vercel (Staging/Previews)
• Database: Supabase (PostgreSQL)

Do you have experience in Startup experience?, * Proven experience setting up and maintaining self-hosted PaaS solutions (specifically Coolify or robust Docker/Docker-Compose environments).

• Deep familiarity with Vercel configurations, serverless execution limits, and Next.js optimization.
• Strong Python ecosystem experience (managing migrations with Alembic and configuring production-grade WSGI/ASGI servers).
• Hands-on experience managing and scaling PostgreSQL instances (Supabase/Postgres connection pooling, indexing).
• Prior startup experience-you know how to build clean, pragmatic infrastructure without over-engineering inside a strict weekly hour limit.
• Must be available to complete the interview process in person at our corporate office.

We are a fast-paced tech startup moving quickly past our initial MVP stage. We have outgrown purely managed SaaS constraints and are optimizing our infrastructure for scalability, cost-efficiency, and absolute reliability. We rely heavily on self-hosted architecture via Coolify paired with optimized frontend distribution platforms.
