JOB SUMMARY

As part of a team composed entirely of senior engineers, the Senior DevOps Engineer will be expected to operate with a high degree of autonomy and collaborate as a peer with other senior team members, sharing ownership of architectural decisions, cross-training on each other's areas of depth, and raising the bar on engineering practices across the team. As such, the ideal candidate must have experience clearly explaining solutions to complex problems and demonstrate the ability to influence and align other experienced engineers, not just execute independently.
