Role: Cloud Infrastructure & DevOps Engineer

 

Industry Type: Space Technology

 

Location: Bangalore / Ahmedabad

 

Employment Type: Full-time

 

Role Overview:

 

As a Cloud Infrastructure & DevOps Engineer, you will lead the development of cloud-agnostic backend and infrastructure systems that are portable across multiple environments (AWS, GCP, Azure, and on-premise). You will design resilient deployment pipelines, optimize compute and storage resources, ensure secure multi-tenant SaaS practices, and implement observability for our mission-critical satellite intelligence platform. This role demands deep DevOps expertise, a strong systems mindset, and the ability to build for portability and resilience.

 

Key Responsibilities:

 

1) Infrastructure Ownership & Cost Optimization

  • Architect a cloud-agnostic infrastructure using open-source, platform-independent tools.
  • Implement autoscaling, load balancing, and spot/preemptible compute optimization across cloud and on-premise setups.
  • Containerize services for consistent deployments across providers and environments.

2) Security & Deployment Policies

  • Implement secure networking, RBAC, and identity controls abstracted from cloud providers.
  • Define and enforce platform-agnostic rollout/rollback strategies for high-availability deployments.
  • Ensure compliance with SaaS security standards across all cloud platforms.

3) Observability & Monitoring

  • Set up unified observability stacks (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, Loki) to monitor infrastructure health across multi-cloud setups.
  • Define and track SLAs, SLOs, and real-time incident alerting.
  • Build centralized logging and metrics pipelines that function across environments.

4) Database & Data Management

  • Manage cloud-agnostic data backends such as PostgreSQL/PostGIS, MongoDB, and object storage compatible with S3 APIs.
  • Implement multi-region backups, replication, and disaster recovery plans.

5) CI/CD & Infrastructure as Code (IaC)

  • Build reusable, cloud-agnostic CI/CD pipelines using tools like GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD, or ArgoCD.
  • Use Terraform and Ansible to provision infrastructure on any cloud provider or bare-metal server.
  • Package all workloads using Docker and deploy using Kubernetes (K8s) clusters across cloud/on-prem environments.

Required Skills & Experience

 

1) Cloud & DevOps Expertise

  • Proven experience with multi-cloud or hybrid cloud deployments (AWS, GCP, Azure, on-prem).
  • Expertise in Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, Ansible, and container orchestration best practices.
  • Ability to abstract infrastructure away from vendor-specific tools.

2) Security & Compliance

  • Deep understanding of IAM, RBAC, VPNs, secrets management, and secure API design.
  • Experience with security hardening, auditing, and policy enforcement in distributed environments.

3) Monitoring & Observability

  • Familiarity with cloud-neutral observability stacks like Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, and ELK.
  • Ability to define actionable metrics, tracing, and SLOs/SLA dashboards.

4) Database Management

  • Operational experience with PostgreSQL/PostGIS, MongoDB, Redis, and S3-compatible storage.
  • Competence in data migration, query optimization, and failover strategies.

5) CI/CD & Automation

  • Cloud-agnostic CI/CD experience with GitHub Actions, GitLab, or ArgoCD.
  • Automated infrastructure provisioning using Terraform, Packer, and Ansible across platforms.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with on-premise Kubernetes clusters (e.g., k3s, RKE2, OpenShift).
  • Familiarity with cloud abstraction platforms
  • Knowledge of event-driven or edge computing architectures.

Benefits

  • This role is ideal for Backend/DevOps engineers passionate about building resilient, portable, and cloud-neutral systems that scale across multiple environments — from cloud hyperscalers to air-gapped, secure on-premise deployments.
  • Mentorship from experienced engineers in the field
  • Thriving Growth-Mindset Team
  • Lots of Fun!
