Job Description

AltisStaffing is hiring Cloud & DevOps professionals to design, build, and operate secure, scalable, and highly available infrastructure for modern applications. You’ll work closely with engineering, security, and product teams to automate delivery pipelines, improve reliability, and ensure cloud environments are cost-efficient and resilient. This is a hands-on role for people who love clean automation, strong serviceability, and dependable systems.

• Design cloud architecture for scalable, fault-tolerant systems across AWS, Azure, and/or GCP.
• Build and maintain Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to standardize environments and enable repeatable deployments.
• Implement and improve CI/CD pipelines to accelerate releases while maintaining strong quality and security checks.
• Containerize and orchestrate workloads using Docker, including cluster upgrades and workload optimization.
• Strengthen reliability and performance through SRE practices: SLIs/SLOs, incident response, postmortems, and continuous improvement.
• Enhance serviceability with monitoring, logging, and tracing to reduce MTTR and prevent recurring incidents.
• Improve cloud security posture by applying least privilege, secrets management, vulnerability scanning, and policy-as-code where applicable.
• Optimize costs and capacity using right-sizing, auto scaling, reserved instances/savings plans, and usage reporting.
• Partner with developers to establish deployment standards, golden paths, and self-service platform tooling.
• Document systems and run books so teams can operate confidently and scale sustainably.

Requirements

3+ years in Cloud/DevOps/SRE/Platform roles (mid-level); 5+ years (senior) preferred.

• Proven experience running production systems with high availability and strong security practices.

• Incident management, error budgets, SLO design, resilience testing, on-call improvements, reliability engineering.
• Internal developer platforms, paved roads, self-service templates, service catalogues, developer experience (DX).
• Docker and container build/release best practices.
• CI/CD expertise (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, Azure DevOps, CircleCI, etc.).
• Infrastructure as Code (Terraform strongly preferred; CloudFormation/Bicep/Deployment Manager also welcome).
• Linux + networking fundamentals (DNS, TLS, load balancing, VPC/VNet design, routing, firewalls/security groups).
• Monitoring/serviceability (Prometheus/Granada, CloudWatch, Data-dog, ELK/Open-search, OpenTelemetry, etc.).
• Security fundamentals (IAM/RBAC, secrets management, patching, container scanning, baseline hardening).

Bonus Skills

• Service mesh or API gateway experience (Kong, NGINX, Api-gee, etc.).
• FinOps & cost optimization (cost allocation, tagging strategy, savings plans/reserved capacity, unit economics).

Benefits

• Competitive compensation aligned to your experience and region.
• Remote-friendly environment with a sync collaboration practices.
• Opportunity to work with modern cloud stacks and high-impact engineering teams.
• Growth path into Senior/Lead Cloud, SRE Lead, or Platform Architect tracks.
