Type: Full-time
Start Date: ASAP About Us We are building a browser-based data analytics platform with computational capabilities for biopharma.
We are looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to own infrastructure design, automate deployments, and optimize performance at scale. This is a DevOps-first role, but if you have experience with systems architecture, high-performance or scientific computing, data engineering, that’s a huge plus. What you’ll do DevOps & infra engineering (80% focus) * Design, automate, and maintain scalable cloud & on-prem infrastructure (AWS, GCP, Kubernetes) * Build and optimize CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins) * Enhance system observability and monitoring * Ensure security, performance, and fault tolerance across all environments * Simplify deployment and infrastructure management to keep maintenance minimal
Performance optimization & systems engineering (15% focus) * Architect and prototype an OLAP solution that syncs with arbitrary external databases * Architect the caching solution for scientific computations * Optimize database performance and backend services * Design and refine cloud-based data processing architectures for analytics pipelines * Work with backend teams to ensure smooth integrations between applications & infrastructure
Data infrastructure (5% bonus, not required) * Integrate and optimize data warehouses (ClickHouse, Redshift, Snowflake) * Optimize query performance and storage for large-scale analytics
Some tech you will be working with
AWS (ECS, EKS), CloudFormation, Terraform, Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Prometheus, CloudWatch, Docker, Kubernetes, ArgoCD, Python, Bash What we’re looking for We don’t expect you to check every box, but you should be comfortable solving DevOps and software engineering problems at scale.
