SENIOR DEVOPS ENGINEER ABOUT THE TEAM The Core Engineering teams build the systems and tooling that enable Wolt, Deliveroo, and DoorDash engineers to develop, ship, and operate software at scale. We treat infrastructure, CI / CD, and developer tooling as software products, engineered with the same care as customer-facing systems. Our mission is to increase engineering velocity, reliability, and security as we transform the way the world eats and shops. ABOUT THE ROLE Working in the Infrastructure team, you’ll be responsible for the foundational compute and cloud components that product engineering teams build on: our Kubernetes clusters, related cloud infrastructure and networking, and the Infrastructure-as-Code and provisioning frameworks that let our teams safely self-serve environments and capacity. Expect to split your time between hands-on operational ownership and writing production-quality code to build automation / tooling that removes toil and friction, while also designing and running scalable systems in AWS. WHAT YOU’LL DO * Take ownership of complex infrastructure initiatives end-to-end, spanning Kubernetes, cloud infrastructure, networking, and infrastructure-as-code frameworks - making most technical decisions within scope without needing oversight. * Break initiatives down into executable work, identify dependencies, provide accurate estimates, and document project-level technical decisions and how infrastructure components interact. * Design, deploy, and operate secure, scalable systems in AWS, and know when and how to pull in other teams to support cross-cutting initiatives. * Independently plan and drive technical improvements to the compute and cloud platform, using data and clear success metrics to prioritize work. * Build and own self-service tooling, automation, and Infrastructure-as-Code frameworks that let other engineering teams provision environments and infrastructure safely and consistently. * Unblock other teams through code and design reviews, proactively answering questions, and sharing knowledge via guides, playbooks, and internal tech talks. * Serve as a first responder during on-call rotations for core infrastructure, lead root cause analysis, and drive incident mitigation and follow-through. * Drive team-wide quality objectives for the Infrastructure platform: reliability, operational readiness (alerting, dashboards, runbooks), and developer experience / productivity tooling. * Act as a role model for other engineers by sharing constructive feedback, recognizing colleagues' contributions, and supporting hiring through interviewing and recruiting activities. * Partner closely with platform teams across Wolt, Deliveroo, and DoorDash to align on shared standards, tooling, and the joint infrastructure roadmap. REQUIREMENTS * A track record of owning complex technical initiatives end-to-end, contributing to making architecture-level decisions and understanding their long-term consequences. * Deep, hands-on expertise operating Kubernetes and container orchestration in production, including cluster scaling, upgrades, and multi-tenancy. * Strong experience with cloud platforms (AWS preferred), including networking, IAM, account structuring, and cost management. * Proficiency in Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform preferred) and building provisioning or automation frameworks that other engineers rely on. * Solid software engineering skills (Go, Python, or similar) applied to building internal tooling and automation, not just operational scripting. * Broader knowledge across supportive technologies (e.g. Kafka, gRPC, Postgres / MongoDB, Redis, CI / CD such as GitHub Actions) and the ability to weigh trade-offs between them for a given problem. * Solid understanding of SRE principles, including incident response, fault-tolerant architecture, and capacity planning. * Experience unblocking and mentoring other engineers (e.g. code / design reviews, knowledge sharing, or driving best practices), and willingness to contribute to hiring across interviewing, tech talks, etc. * Excellent collaboration and communication skills; this role works closely with many engineering teams, increasingly operating at global scale. NICE-TO-HAVES * Experience with GitOps tooling (e.g. Argo CD, Flux), progressive delivery, or service mesh technologies. * Experience operating multi-cluster or multi-region Kubernetes environments at scale. * GCP exposure, especially compute and networking aspects. * Familiarity with cloud cost optimization / FinOps practices for cloud and Kubernetes workloads. * Experience contributing to multi-org infrastructure unification efforts. * Contributions to open-source infrastructure or platform engineering projects, especially in the CNCF ecosystem.
