For over 20 years, Smartsheet has empowered teams to manage work seamlessly and scale solutions smarter. Now, in our most
ambitious chapter yet, we are uniting human teams with AI agents. By orchestrating the work agents do best, automating manual
tasks and uncovering insights at scale, we create the space for people to focus on what truly matters: judgment, creativity, and
big thinking. That is magic at work, and it’s what we show up for every day.
We are seeking a Senior DevOps Engineer to join the team that owns and operates Smartsheet's edge proxy platform and internal
engineering tooling. The edge proxy is a custom-built, high-performance reverse proxy that serves as the entry point for all
traffic across Smartsheet's commercial and FedRAMP-authorised US Government environments. The team owns the full lifecycle of this
platform: from maintaining the proxy binary and its configuration tooling, to provisioning and operating the multi-region AWS EKS
infrastructure it runs on, to managing the observability and on-call story for every service that routes through it. Beyond the
edge layer, the team also drives the evaluation and adoption of internal developer tooling — from developer portals to
productivity platforms — that improves the engineering experience across the company.
You will work remotely from Bulgaria and will be reporting to an engineering leader.
You Will:
* Own and evolve the edge proxy platform: Maintain, upgrade, and extend a high-performance reverse proxy — including maintaining
the proxy binary and its configuration tooling, writing Go and Python automation, managing the full container image lifecycle
on hardened Linux base images, and working across the broader edge layer, including CDN, WAF, and traffic management
capabilities.
* Build and maintain cloud infrastructure as code: Design and implement Terraform/Terragrunt modules and live environment
configurations managing EKS clusters, load balancers, IAM roles, VPC networking, ECR registries, and supporting AWS services
across multiple regions including GovCloud.
* Operate Kubernetes clusters at scale: Manage multi-region, multi-cluster EKS deployments via FluxCD GitOps workflows and Helm
charts, including node AMI rotation, add-on lifecycle management, and horizontal pod autoscaling.
* Build and own CI/CD pipelines: Design, maintain, and improve shared GitLab CI/CD pipeline templates used across all team
repositories; build and operate alternative pipeline workflows for isolated government cloud environments.
* Automate operational toil: Build and maintain tooling for tasks such as container image patching, EKS AMI rotation, air-gapped
ECR image sync to GovCloud, and automated MR creation for monthly version-bump patching cycles.
* Manage observability and on-call: Provision and maintain Datadog SLOs, monitors, and dashboards via Terraform; participate in
the team's on-call rotation responding to edge proxy incidents across production and GovCloud environments.
* Support FedRAMP/GovCloud operations: Operate the GovCloud environment with its unique constraints — air-gapped image
distribution, infrastructure automation in isolated networks, and alert management with compliance-aware data handling.
* Evaluate and adopt internal developer tooling: Research, prototype, and drive the adoption of internal tools that improve
engineering productivity across the company — including developer portals, platform self-service capabilities, and other
tooling that raises the bar for the developer experience at Smartsheet.
* Mentor and collaborate: Share knowledge across the team through code reviews, architecture discussions, and runbook authorship;
foster a culture of engineering excellence and operational rigour.
* Strategically apply AI tools: Strategically apply and champion AI tools within your team's domain to improve project execution,
infrastructure design, quality, and debugging, leading adoption of AI best practices.
You Have:
* 5+ years of experience in DevOps, platform engineering, or site reliability engineering.
* A BS or MS in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent industry experience.
* Deep proficiency with Terraform and Terragrunt for managing production cloud infrastructure at scale across multiple
environments and regions.
* Strong Kubernetes expertise, including EKS cluster operations and Helm chart authoring.
* Hands-on experience with AWS networking and container workload services: EKS, ALB/NLB, VPC, IAM, ECR, Route53, CloudWatch, and
EventBridge.
* Proficiency in at least one general-purpose programming language — Go or Python preferred — for building operational tooling
and automation.
* Solid understanding of reverse proxies, API gateways, or load balancers (NGINX, HAProxy, or equivalent).
* Experience designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines (GitLab CI preferred), including shared template libraries across multiple
repositories.
* Experience with container image security practices: hardened base images, vulnerability scanning, and image promotion
workflows.
* Strong operational instincts: comfort with on-call responsibilities, incident response, runbook authorship, and postmortems in
production environments.
* 1 year of professional experience leveraging AI-based workflows to author, maintain, review, and deploy infrastructure or code.
* Fluency in English is required.
* Legally eligible to work in Bulgaria on an ongoing basis.
Nice to Have:
* Experience with enterprise CDN platforms, including WAF configuration, origin routing, and cache policy management.
* Familiarity with FedRAMP or AWS GovCloud operational constraints.
* Experience with advanced reverse proxy or API gateway configuration, including programmatic config generation, dynamic routing,
and service mesh components.
* Experience managing Datadog resources via Terraform: SLO definitions, monitors, and dashboards.
* Familiarity with rate-limiting services, control plane components, or custom traffic filter development.

You independently lead the most complex AI deployments Smartsheet undertakes. You own the full engagement lifecycle from technical
discovery through production deployment through solutions org handoff. You architect multi-agent solutions, design
client-personalized MCP resource packs, and build the Deployment Kits that transform how 200+ solutions consultants and partners
operate. You mentor junior FDEs, drive the intelligence loop, and present field findings at weekly Applied AI strategy sessions.
You are building a function, not filling a role.
What You Will Do
* Lead complex, multi-system AI deployments end-to-end scope, architect, build, validate, and manage the customer relationship
throughout.
* Own the AI workshop program for your pod, customize modules per customer, lead technical sessions, translate outputs into

* Strong written and verbal communication. Architecture documents, runbooks, strategic memos, training materials. Your Deployment
Kits are your portfolio.
* You leave teams better than you found them. You make sure the people you work with understand what was built, why it works, and
how to own it without you.
* Ability to travel. This role requires domestic and international travel approximately 25–50% of the time.
* Elligible to work in the UK on an ongoing basis
* BS or MS in Computer Science, a related field, or equivalent industry experience
Nice to Have:
