OpenEnvoy - Platform Engineer - DevOps/Site Reliability

Description :

We're looking for a Platform Engineer to be the first DevOps hire in our engineering team. This is a high-impact, high-autonomy role where you will design, build, and own the platform that powers our product from infrastructure to CI/CD to observability and compliance security controls. If you enjoy building systems end-to-end, simplifying complexity, and enabling developers to move fast without compromising reliability, you'll thrive here.

Responsibilities :

- Architect, build, and maintain our cloud infrastructure across AWS (and selectively GCP/Azure where required).

- Define and enforce CI/CD best practices for faster and safer deployments.

- Build Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform) and maintain environment parity across dev, staging, and prod.

- Manage and optimize our container orchestration platforms (Docker/ECS/EKS/K8s).

- Implement and evolve our monitoring, logging, and alerting stack (Prometheus / Grafana / ELK / CloudWatch).

- Lead incident response playbooks, rollout safety, and rollback strategies.

- Own the platform controls required for SOC2 HIPAA, and security/compliance posture (access controls, audit logs, and baseline config).

- Partner closely with backend and QA teams on performance, reliability, and deployment workflows.

- Mentor engineers and help shape platform engineering culture as we scale.

Requirements :

- 7+ years of professional experience in DevOps / SRE / Platform Engineering.

- Deep hands-on experience with AWS (EC2 S3 VPC, RDS, IAM, ECS/EKS, VPNs, etc. ).

- Strong proficiency with Terraform and infrastructure configuration patterns.

- Experience maintaining CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions / GitLab CI / Jenkins / Argo / CircleCI).

- Solid experience with Docker and container orchestration.

- Strong scripting ability in Python, Bash, or Go for automation and tooling.

- Familiarity with monitoring and logging stacks (Prometheus / Grafana / ELK / CloudWatch).

- A security-first mindset : least privilege, secrets management, and network segmentation.

- Ability to debug complex, multi-layered systems under pressure and remain calm during incidents.

- Comfortable in fast-changing, high-ownership startup environments.

- B. Tech / B. E. / M. Tech / equivalent in computer science (or strong practical track record).

Nice to Have :

- Exposure to SOC2 / HIPAA / ISO27001 (but we don't expect you to be an auditor; we expect you to maintain infra controls).

- Experience tuning cloud costs and usage patterns.

- Kubernetes experience at a moderate scale.
