DevOps Engineer (Mid-Level)

Own the platform's CI/CD, infrastructure as code and observability on Google Cloud day to day, and help carry the migration from VM-based deploys onto Kubernetes and GitOps while keeping every environment safe, automated and aligned with regulatory controls. What you'll do • Build and maintain the CI/CD pipelines (Cloud Build / GitHub Actions) for safe, incremental, zero-downtime deploys. • Run and extend the GitOps delivery path: Kustomize overlays, image promotion and automated reconciliation. • Help complete the platform's migration onto Kubernetes, keeping both deployment paths healthy while they run side by side. • Implement and maintain infrastructure as code across all environments, with reviewed plans and shared modules. • Operate containerized workloads day to day: ingress, resource limits, autoscaling, and troubleshooting failed rollouts. • Extend observability: structured logging, metrics, dashboards and alerting, building on Sentry and lograge today toward full Cloud Monitoring and Cloud Logging coverage. • Implement platform hardening to the defined control set: secret management with rotation, workload identity, and least-privilege IAM. • Operate the KSA cloud-region footprint (GCP me-central2): backups, backup verification, and execution of disaster-recovery drills to the documented plan. • Own supply-chain and pipeline security: container-image and dependency scanning, SBOM and provenance generation, secret scanning, and extending this coverage consistently across every pipeline. • Maintain the alpha, QA, staging, staging-QA and production environments, including data anonymisation for all non-production environments. • Support the on-call rotation, maintain the runbook library with the support team, and manage per-environment cost budgets and alerting. • And all responsibilities given by the direct manager. What we look for • 3–5 years in DevOps, SRE or platform engineering, including production ownership of infrastructure other engineers rely on daily. • Strong, hands-on Google Cloud Platform experience: IAM, GKE, Artifact Registry and Compute Engine. • Kubernetes in production: deployments, ingress, resource management, and troubleshooting failed rollouts. • GitOps delivery with Kustomize and Argo CD or Flux. • Infrastructure as code (Terraform or equivalent) in a team context: remote state, consuming and extending shared modules, reviewed plans. • Docker, and CI/CD pipeline design (Cloud Build / GitHub Actions) with Bash or Python scripting. • Solid Linux troubleshooting at container level, and participation in production incidents. • Experience in, or genuine comfort working in, a fast-paced startup environment: self-managed time, adapting to changing priorities, following tasks through, and delivering on short timelines when needed. • Comfortable working with AI tools and able to use them effectively to lift your productivity and the quality of your work — Claude Code and other relevant AI-powered tools. • Preferred — GCP Professional certification (Cloud DevOps Engineer or Cloud Engineer). • Preferred — Experience with KSA cloud regions (me-central2) and data-residency-constrained environments. • Preferred — Familiarity with Saudi cybersecurity controls (NCA ECC-1, CCC-2) and PDPL. • Preferred — OpenTelemetry, or experience migrating production workloads from VMs onto Kubernetes. • Preferred — Professional Arabic alongside English. • Saudi nationals are strongly encouraged to apply.
