The primary objective of this team is to improve our software delivery performance and availability by driving DevOps culture, tools, infrastructure and practices across Engineering within the Product Development department.

*We are open to remote candidates based anywhere across Canada in this role

• Extend our reusable service template and its associated CI/CD tooling.

• Build and extend our production observability. Help teams manage and achieve SLOs.

• Participate in on-call activities.

• Coach teams on operational ownership. Lead and teach blame-free root cause analysis for incidents that impact the customer or our delivery performance.

• Continue to build and optimize platform capabilities driven via infrastructure-as-code.

You Are:

• You are an advocate for DevOps practices and principles. We have the buy-in, now it’s about execution on the vision.

• Hands-on experience with configuration automation (Terraform), CI / deployment automation (Github Actions), Docker, observability tooling (Honeycomb) and cloud providers (we’re all-in on AWS ECS).

• You have exposure to software development practices, whether as a developer or in operational roles that involve coding, e.g., Python, Golang

• You understand mature operational practices and have experience in building, managing, and maintaining scalable infrastructure.
