*Extremely exciting* enterprise-scale, global entertainment organisation seeking an experienced, Senior DevOps Platform Engineer to support and enhance a modern hybrid infrastructure environment across cloud and on-premise platforms.
You’ll be working with closely with a small, highly dedicated, highly capable team.
Hands-on, senior role focused on Kubernetes, databases, Linux administration, automation, monitoring and platform reliability. You will help keep business-critical systems secure, scalable and available and support engineering teams across a global organisation.
Not CI/CD-only DevOps; this is production platform ownership.
Some workloads run in the cloud, some stay on-prem (for latency and control). Load is uneven and highly bursty.
Failover, capacity and clear runbooks are critical.
The Role:
- Build, manage and scale Kubernetes clusters across cloud and on-premise environments, including GKE and self-managed clusters
- Support and administer MySQL, PostgreSQL and MongoDB (application teams own product schema; you co-own operational)
- Manage monitoring, alerting and logging platforms
- Automate infrastructure with Infrastructure as Code and scripting
- Maintain high availability and resilience across critical systems
- Manage access controls and permissions in cloud platforms
- Troubleshoot, performance-tune and harden platforms
- Develop technical standards, best practices and documentation
- Provide technical support and guidance to internal engineering teams in more than one region
Experience:
Note, we want to speak to people with experience in some or all of the following – you do not need every line.
- Building and managing Kubernetes in production, including GKE and/or self-managed clusters
- Designing and supporting highly available, resilient infrastructure
- Monitoring and observability — Grafana, Prometheus, ELK Stack, rsyslog or equivalent
- Infrastructure automation using Terraform, Ansible, Packer and Bash
- Exposure to medium or large-scale environments
- Ability to work independently manging competing priorities
- Collaboration with teams across locations and time zones
Beneficial:
- On-prem and hybrid Kubernetes
- Hands-on MySQL or PostgreSQL administration
- MongoDB — sharded, on-prem clustering would be particularly useful but is not a must have
