Description
Why this role exists
C Teleport runs a B2B travel platform for travel agencies and corporates. Growing scope across EKS, CI/CD, and IaC needs another owner who can take modules end-to-end and run them in production.
What you will own
- Operate our multi-account AWS estate
- Own Terraform modules end-to-end — design, review, rollout, deprecation
- Run EKS clusters hosting Python, Go, and .NET services: upgrades, autoscaling, IRSA, workload tuning
- Build GitHub Actions pipelines for CI/CD, IaC apply, and security scans
- Instrument Sentry, CloudWatch, and Prometheus; define SLOs tied to user pain
- Keep our ISO 27001, GDPR, and PCI DSS controls audit-ready — evidence automation, drift remediation, continuous audit prep
90-day success criteria
Flux upgraded cluster-wide — HelmRelease API drift eliminated. EKS Terraform module refactored and 1.35-ready. Applications using static AWS credentials migrated to IAM roles, pattern documented.
Must-have skills
- 3+ years DevOps/SRE/Platform with production ownership
- AWS production depth — EKS, RDS, ElastiCache, networking, IAM, security
- Terraform at scale: module design, remote state, drift handling, plan-review discipline
- Kubernetes operations on EKS: crashing pods, resource tuning, Helm, ingress, RBAC
- Incident response: triage Sentry/CloudWatch/Prometheus alerts, root-cause over quick-fix
- SRE / Site Reliability mindset — SLO design, error budgets, incident review discipline
Nice-to-have
- Python or Go — read service code, not just pipelines
- GitHub Actions for CI/CD
- Database tuning — Postgres and MongoDB
- Elasticsearch — cluster ops, index design, hot/warm/cold tiers
- Operator-side audit experience — ISO 27001, GDPR, or PCI DSS
- Russian — bilingual team, English primary for code and docs
How we work
- Remote-first, CET hours aligned with our Rotterdam office; we write more than we meet
- AI coding assistants are part of daily workflow — adopt ours or bring your own
- Code review is mandatory, blameless, direct
- Compensated weekly on-call rotation shared across the DevOps team — you won’t carry it alone
- Bounded scope, end-to-end ownership of your work; we support through code review and async pairing, not ticket hand-offs
This role suits you if
- You operate infrastructure through code, not console clicks
- You scope your own work and decide without waiting for a playbook
- You run what you ship — no merge-and-forget
