This role suits someone comfortable owning problems end to end and equally at home in a data center rack and a cloud console. What you'll do • Provision, configure, and maintain bare-metal servers , from initial rack-and-stack through OS installation, networking, and hardening. • Automate provisioning and system setup with configuration management and scripting (Ansible, Bash, Python, or similar). • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines to enable safe, frequent deployments. • Manage containerized workloads and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes ). • Set up and own monitoring, logging, and alerting to keep systems observable and reliable. • Participate in an on-call rotation and lead incident response and post-mortems. • Continuously improve performance, cost, and security across the stack. What we're looking for • 2–4 years of hands-on experience in DevOps, SRE, or infrastructure engineering. • Demonstrated ability to set up and manage bare-metal infrastructure — hardware provisioning, network configuration, storage, and OS-level administration (Linux). • Strong scripting skills (Bash, Python, or Go). • Strong experience with configuration management and automation through scripts (Ansible, shell scripting, etc.). • Solid understanding of containers and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes). • Familiarity with CI/CD tooling (GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or similar). • Good grasp of networking fundamentals (DNS, routing, firewalls, load balancing). • A collaborative, ownership-driven mindset and clear communication skills. Nice to have • Experience with infrastructure-as-code tooling (Terraform, Pulumi, or similar). • Experience with TeleCloud is a strong plus. • Exposure to public cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure). • Experience with observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK). • Background operating high-availability or low-latency systems.
