SDE II - DevOps Engineer

Auriga is looking for a DevOps / SRE Engineer to own the reliability, scalability, and operational health of our production infrastructure. He will manage infrastructure end-to-end through code, build and maintain CI/CD pipelines, respond to production incidents as part of an on-call rotation, and partner with engineering teams to embed reliability into every stage of our software delivery lifecycle. This is a hands-on ownership role — not a support or ticket-queue position. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES On-Call & Incident Management Participate/ lead production incident triage, mitigation, and resolution. Define and track SLIs / SLOs and manage error budgets for critical services. Author blameless postmortems with root cause analysis and corrective action plans for all significant incidents. Build and maintain runbooks and incident response playbooks. Infrastructure as Code & Infra Management Own the full infrastructure lifecycle using Terraform exclusively — no manual console provisioning in production. Design modular Terraform modules for cloud resources: compute, networking, storage, IAM, DNS, databases. Manage environment parity (dev / staging / prod), drift detection, and immutable infrastructure principles. Use Ansible or equivalent for configuration management, patch management, and compliance at scale. Plan and execute capacity planning, scaling, and cost optimization initiatives. Kubernetes & Containers Provision, configure, upgrade, and maintain production Kubernetes clusters (EKS / GKE / AKS). Manage Helm charts, ArgoCD / FluxCD GitOps workflows, RBAC, network policies, and secrets management. Troubleshoot pod failures, resource constraints, scheduling issues, and node-level problems. CI/CD & Release Engineering Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions / GitLab CI / Jenkins) with quality gates and automated rollback. Implement progressive delivery: blue-green, canary deployments, and feature flags. Conduct production readiness reviews before new service go-lives. Observability & Monitoring Implement and manage full-stack observability: metrics (Prometheus + Grafana), logs (Loki), traces (OpenTelemetry / Jaeger). Build SLO-driven alerting and dashboards covering the four golden signals; route via PagerDuty / OpsGenie. Linux, Networking & Security Administer production Linux systems (Ubuntu / RHEL / CentOS): performance tuning, hardening, troubleshooting. Manage VPCs, subnets, security groups, VPNs, load balancers, Nginx / HAProxy, CDNs, and SSL/TLS certificates. Manage secrets with Vault / AWS Secrets Manager; integrate security scanning into CI/CD pipelines (DevSecOps). Database & Application Operations Manage operational health, backups, replication, and failover for MySQL / PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, Memcached. Support deployments for both monolithic and microservices architectures; validate DR procedures regularly. REQUIREMENTS 3–5 years of hands-on production…
