Softobiz Technologies
Overview
DevOps Engineer
Role Summary
We are looking for a DevOps engineer to build and operate cloud-native foundations and to partner closely with AI and application engineers. This is a hands-on role spanning DevOps fundamentals — Kubernetes, CI/CD, GitOps, and infrastructure-as-code — and AI/ML infrastructure such as GPU-backed model serving and the data services that AI applications depend on.
You will help stand up pragmatic, right-sized platform foundations and act as the infrastructure partner to application engineers — deploying and scaling their services reliably, keeping the developer loop fast, and building security and observability in from the start. We are looking for a candidate with a strong academic record and solid computer-science fundamentals (data structures, algorithms, and problem-solving) alongside hands-on platform experience.
Key Responsibilities
DevOps Foundations
- Bootstrap and operate Kubernetes (AKS) plus the surrounding cloud-native foundations: container registry, secrets management, identity, and monitoring.
- Own the build-and-deploy path end to end — containerisation (Docker/BuildKit), image registry, CI/CD (GitHub Actions or Azure Pipelines), and GitOps (Argo CD or Flux).
- Codify infrastructure with Terraform and/or Bicep and Helm so environments are reproducible and reviewable.
AI Infrastructure & Data Plane
- Package and deploy application and AI/agent services, including the runtime, secrets, and configuration they require.
- Provision and operate the data plane: managed PostgreSQL, Redis, a vector store, a graph store, object storage, and a queue / event bus.
- Stand up self-hosted inference — e.g. vLLM on a GPU node pool — alongside hosted-model connectors; use KEDA/HPA to scale stateless pods (down to zero) and bin-pack GPU efficiently.
Isolation, Security & Reliability
- Implement tenant/workload isolation: namespaces, deny-by-default NetworkPolicy, ResourceQuota/LimitRange, and scoped secrets.
- Manage secrets and identity with a secrets manager / KMS and an identity provider; keep credentials out of code.
- Establish observability and basic SRE practice: OpenTelemetry, Prometheus + Grafana (or cloud-native monitoring), tracing, alerting, and runbooks.
Collaboration & Cost
- Pair with application engineers on inference, persistence, and durable-execution concerns.
- Keep the platform cost-aware — right-size nodes, scale to zero, and surface spend.
- Contribute to engineering standards and a fast, low-friction developer loop.

- 2–3 years of hands-on experience in DevOps / platform / infrastructure engineering, with practical Kubernetes exposure.
- Strong data structures, algorithms, and problem-solving skills.
- Experience supporting application engineers (deploying services, debugging runtime issues) and working with cloud infrastructure; exposure to production clusters is a plus.
Preferred Certifications
- Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA) / CKAD
- Microsoft Certified: Azure Administrator / Azure Solutions Architect
- HashiCorp Terraform Associate
Soft Skills & Cultural Fit
- Pragmatic and outcome-driven — builds the minimum viable platform first, avoids premature complexity.
- Collaborative; genuinely enjoys pairing with application engineers and unblocking their deployment/runtime problems.
- Strong ownership and on-call maturity; calm, methodical incident response.
- Clear communicator across technical and non-technical stakeholders.
What We Offer
- Hands-on work across modern cloud-native and AI infrastructure — Kubernetes, GPU inference, GitOps, and durable workflows.
- High ownership of the platform and infrastructure from an early stage.
- Competitive compensation with a structured performance review process.
- Professional development support — certifications (CKA, Azure), conferences, and emerging tooling.
- Collaborative, transparent culture with clear growth pathways toward Staff / Principal platform engineering.
