Senior DevOps Engineer

We are looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to join a digital engineering team supporting a large-scale eCommerce platform and cloud infrastructure. The ideal candidate is highly hands-on, able to work independently, and comfortable owning infrastructure decisions with minimal oversight.

The role has a strong AWS foundation, with a significant focus on CDN technologies, edge security, and an upcoming evaluation of Cloudflare as a potential replacement for Akamai.

Location: Remote

Allocation: Ideally full time (40 hours/week), although exceptional candidates may initially start part time.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, operate, and improve AWS infrastructure supporting production applications.

• Own Kubernetes/EKS environments, deployments, upgrades, and operational troubleshooting.

• Build and maintain Infrastructure as Code using Terraform.

• Develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines.

• Manage GitOps deployments (ArgoCD preferred).

• Support production infrastructure, incident response, and operational improvements.

• Optimize cloud reliability, security, and cost.

• Work closely with engineering teams while being able to independently own infrastructure decisions.

Important – CDN / Edge Experience

Hands-on experience with one or more of the following is highly preferred:

• Akamai (Content Delivery and/or Security)

• Cloudflare

• CloudFront

The client is currently using Akamai and is beginning to evaluate a potential migration to Cloudflare, so experience with enterprise CDN platforms, edge security, caching, WAF, TLS, and traffic management is a major advantage.

Candidates should be comfortable designing, operating, and troubleshooting CDN environments and participating in architecture discussions around future migration strategies.
