Not expert in all - competent enough to operate and contribute. * Demonstrated ownership of a production system end-to-end: design, implementation, operation. * On-call experience in a production environment with measurable reliability outcomes. * Comfortable in code (Python, Go, or similar) for automation, tooling, and integration work. * Strong technical writing - design docs, runbooks, post-mortems., * Strong background in one or more of the following. We're hiring generalists with a spike, not specialists - depth in one area weighs heavily, but not at the cost of breadth across the basics. * Networking - enterprise (FortiGate, switching), site/ground station, or core (TGW, WireGuard, BGP, IPsec) * Security engineering - Vault, identity (Okta, IAM), SIEM operations, hardening * Compliance partnership - implementing technical controls for CMMC, FedRAMP, NIST 800-171, ITAR * Observability at scale - VictoriaMetrics or Prometheus, Grafana, alerting design, log pipelines (Vector, Loki) * App platform - EKS at scale, on-prem k3s, ArgoCD and GitOps patterns * CI/CD and developer experience - pipeline design, scanning and linting, release engineering * Cloud architecture - multi-account AWS, GovCloud, Cloudflare * On-prem and hardware-adjacent ops - bringing up systems in remote or austere environments, ground stations, edge sites ## Description * Own and operate one or more components of the Northwood infrastructure stack (CI/CD, app platform, cloud/IaC, networking, observability, security tooling). Take a defined scope and execute without ongoing oversight. * Build and maintain infrastructure as code. Default to Terraform, Helm, and GitOps. * Carry on-call for the infra stack. Handle the majority of incidents to resolution independently. * Run post-incident reviews for incidents you owned. * Partner with security engineering and compliance on controls implementation in your areas - Vault policies, IAM boundaries, SIEM coverage, evidence collection. * Treat toil as a design signal. When manual work repeats, automate it or fix the underlying system. * Write and maintain runbooks, design docs, and component documentation. Keep them current with the system. * Collaborate across infra, product engineering, and ground station operations on cross-cutting work. ## Related Videos - [My journey into DevOps world - How it all started!](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/545-my-journey-into-devops-world-how-it-all-started) - [From DevOps to Scaled DevOps: How We’re Rebuilding Continuous Delivery as a Platform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100018-from-devops-to-scaled-devops-how-we-re-rebuilding-continuous-delivery-as-a-platform) - [Docker network without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1418-docker-network-without-docker) - [#90DaysOfDevOps - The DevOps Learning Journey](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/548-90daysofdevops-the-devops-learning-journey) - [Shipping Faster with Less: Render on Cloud Hosting, AI Workloads, and the Future of DevOps](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1894-shipping-faster-with-less-render-on-cloud-hosting-ai-workloads-and-the-future-of-devops) - [DevOps Maturity Check – a way to balance autonomy and alignment](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/58-devops-maturity-check-a-way-to-balance-autonomy-and-alignment) ## Related Articles - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [Why Upskilling And Reskilling is Important For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/428-why-upskilling-and-reskilling-is-important-for-developers) - [The Best Software Developer Blogs to Read](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/156-the-best-software-developer-blogs-to-read) - [Best US AI Conferences for CTOs in 2026: Build vs. Buy, Vendor Evaluation, and Peer Intelligence](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/736-best-us-ai-conferences-for-ctos-in-2026-build-vs-buy-vendor-evaluation-and-peer-intelligence) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs)
