## About the Role

Must Have

 * 5+ years in DevOps, infrastructure or platform engineering, including ownership of production systems and on-call.
 * You write design docs, reason about trade-offs, and mentor other engineers.
 * Fluent English, written and spoken. Please send your CV in English.

## Description

We own: GitLab CI pipelines, Stack CLIs and internal tooling, Argo CD, Crossplane Compositions, metrics, logs, tracing, profiling, alerts and dashboards, API management, OAuth2 clients and the Governance API, our internal developer platform

We don't own: cloud accounts, clusters, networking, the service mesh, Crossplane providers and XRDs (CLOUD), GitLab instance upgrades and VMs.

Your first 6 months

 * Own metrics, logs, alerts and dashboards, and help teams decide what to measure.
 * Build and maintain GitLab CI pipelines and shared templates.
 * Run Argo CD and GitOps workflows across environments.
 * Write Crossplane Compositions on top of XRDs.
 * Manage APIs, OAuth2 clients and the Governance API.
 * Help shape our internal developer platform., * Go as your main language: production code with tests and releases, and CLIs or services you maintain.
 * Observability: Grafana, Prometheus, Thanos, Loki, Tempo, Pyroscope and alerts that people actually trust.
 * GitLab CI at scale: shared templates, includes, runners, pipeline security.
 * Helm and Kustomize.
 * Kubernetes from the workload side: CRDs and debugging deployments.
 * You treat developers as customers, with clear docs, feedback loops and attention to adoption.

Nice to Have

 * OpenTelemetry or distributed tracing (Tempo, Jaeger).
 * Argo CD/GitOps: ApplicationSets, sync strategies, promotion between environments.
 * OAuth2/OIDC, JWTs, API management.
 * Python as a second language.
 * Crossplane Compositions
 * Multi-stage Docker builds and image hygiene.
 * Writing Operators (kubebuilder/controller-runtime)
