Deployment Engineer (DevOps / Platform Execution)

Job Context: Riseup Labs is seeking  a senior Deployment Engineer to enable reliable, secure, and repeatable deployment of the pod’s deliverables into enterprise environments. This role focuses on CI/CD, containerized deployments, controlled environment promotion, operational readiness, and production stability.The Deployment Engineer will work closely with engineering teams, architecture, and platform stakeholders to ensure delivery pipelines and runtime environments support rapid iteration without compromising security, governance, reliability, or cost controls. Job Responsibilities: Design, implement, and operate CI/CD pipelines to build, test, package, and deploy services across environments. • Implement controlled promotion processes (development → test → staging → production) aligned with enterprise governance and change control. • Package and deploy containerized workloads using Docker and orchestration platforms (Kubernetes where applicable). • Implement deployment reliability practices including automated validation, rollout strategies, and rollback mechanisms. • Maintain infrastructure and configuration assets using enterprise-grade governance practices (versioning, change control, review, and promotion across environments). • Implement secure operations practices including secrets management, least privilege access, secure configuration, and baseline hardening. • Ensure operational readiness through monitoring hooks, alerting integration, and actionable runbooks. • Support incident response through structured troubleshooting, root cause analysis, and corrective actions. • Collaborate with engineering teams to ensure services are production-ready (observability, health checks, performance, resilience). • Support deployment in constrained enterprise environments (restricted egress, network segmentation, and access-controlled runtime conditions where applicable). Educational Requirements: B.Sc in Computer Science and Engineering from any reputed public or private university. Additional Requirements: Strong experience with CI/CD pipeline design and operations in enterprise environments. • Hands-on experience with containerization (Docker) and deployment automation. • Experience deploying and operating services in multi-environment setups with controlled promotion and governance. • Strong troubleshooting ability across build, deployment, and runtime issues (including production incident support). • Strong understanding of operational fundamentals (monitoring, alerting, reliability, recovery, and incident readiness). • Experience implementing centralized secrets management (for example Azure Key Vault, HashiCorp Vault, or equivalent), including secure handling of sensitive AI model credentials and third-party API tokens. • Experience working closely with engineering teams to standardize deployment practices and improve delivery velocity safely. • Ability to operate independently with high ownership and accountability for platform…
