Ryz Labs is looking for a Sr Devops Engineer to work with one of our clients and architect their next-generation infrastructure from scratch. You’ll transition them from legacy setups to a robust, containerized Kubernetes environment featuring automated deployment workflows, ephemeral staging for testing, and seamless horizontal scaling. You will spearhead their migration away from VPC and onto a managed cloud provider, owning the
technical selection of their future platform.
As their first dedicated infrastructure specialist, you are a foundational hire. You will partner closely with their Full Stack Software Engineer to decompose our monolith into a modern, distributed architecture. As new services emerge, you will be responsible for designing and building the high-velocity deployment paths that power them.
What You'll Own
Platform & Infrastructure
• Architect and deploy our K8s ecosystem from the ground up — owning the technical evaluation and migration from Hetzner to a managed cloud solution.
• Engineer ephemeral staging environments that enable high-velocity,
isolated feature testing prior to production deployment.
• Drive the fundamentals of system resilience: scaling horizontally, hardening uptime, and perfecting our backup and recovery protocols.
CI/CD & Deployment
• Modernize their release infrastructure by replacing legacy SFTP and manual script execution with high-velocity, automated CI/CD pipelines.
• Collaborate with their Full Stack Software Engineer to transition from a monolith to distributed services — engineering the deployment paths and setting the standard for
production-grade reliability.
Security & Observability
• Command our security landscape — architecting robust secrets management, rigorous
access controls, and a hardened baseline posture across all systems and deployment
paths.
• Engineer a proactive observability framework, perfecting monitoring and alerting protocols to neutralize potential issues before they escalate into production in
