Job Summary

Depending on the engagement, DevOps Engineers on our bench typically work on:

Managing and improving CI/CD pipelines for a composable ecommerce platform with 30+ microservices across dev, QA, staging, and production environments - owning the full release lifecycle from code merge through artifact publishing and environment promotion.
Maintaining and optimizing GitHub Actions workflows for a large-scale monorepo with 40+ packages, implementing selective builds, task scheduling, and artifact caching using Turborepo or Nx.
Architecting and extending AWS infrastructure using Terraform - covering networking (VPC, subnets, security groups), IAM, encryption, CDN, container registries, and serverless function configurations.
Managing AWS serverless and container workloads: Lambda functions, ECS/Fargate services, API Gateway configurations, event source mappings via SNS, SQS, and EventBridge.
Enforcing security and compliance across cloud resources - least-privilege IAM policies, secrets management (KMS), OIDC-based CI authentication, and PCI/GDPR controls in an ecommerce context.
Operating the full observability stack - APM, real user monitoring, log aggregation, distributed tracing, DLQ alerting - across serverless, container, and third-party API layers.
Managing credentials, webhooks, and connectivity for third-party SaaS services across the composable stack including commerce platforms, headless CMS, search engines, and payment gateways.
Supporting development teams with deployment troubleshooting, runbook documentation, and environment promotion procedures for a trunk-based development workflow.

Must Have

Availability to work nightshift hours with flexible scheduling.
Hands-on experience with GitHub Actions or equivalent CI/CD platforms - reusable workflows, OIDC-based cloud authentication, and managing pipelines for many components with varied build and deploy strategies.
Proven AWS experience across Lambda, API Gateway, ECS/Fargate, ECR, S3, CloudFront, and Cognito, including multi-environment setups with proper network segmentation and access controls.
Strong Terraform skills - modular IaC design, remote state management, environment-specific configurations, and managing multiple modules in a single repo.
Experience with monorepo build systems (Turborepo, Nx, or similar) - selective builds, dependency graph awareness, and CI caching strategies.
Working knowledge of event-driven architectures using SNS, SQS, and EventBridge.
Experience with cloud IAM, secrets management, KMS encryption, WAF configuration, and OIDC-based CI/CD authentication to eliminate static credentials.
Familiarity with APM and monitoring platforms such as Datadog or New Relic - distributed tracing, RUM, log pipelines, dashboards, alerting, and DLQ monitoring.
Fluency in Bash and AWS CLI for automation, with working knowledge of Node.js/TypeScript build tooling and familiarity with Python packaging and Docker multi-stage builds.

Strong Advantage

Experience operating a microservices-based ecommerce or SaaS platform with multiple independently deployable services, including headless CMS, search, and payment integrations via APIs, webhooks, and event buses.
Experience with the Serverless Framework for function lifecycle management and per-function IAM policies.
Background in PCI and GDPR compliance requirements in an ecommerce context - implementing compliance scanning in CI and remediating findings.
Experience managing cross-service release dependencies across multiple environments, including semantic versioning, automated release flows, and trunk-based development patterns.
Demonstrated ability to write clear deployment runbooks, incident response playbooks, and environment promotion documentation.

Nice to Have

Experience with Vercel or similar SSR deployment platforms for Next.js applications.
Familiarity with GraphQL Federation and API gateway patterns.
Exposure to composable commerce platforms such as commercetools or Elastic Path.
Experience with headless CMS migration tooling and content model versioning.
Knowledge of search platform management (Algolia, Elasticsearch) and data sync pipelines.

Tools and Platforms

Experience with any of these is a strong advantage. You do not need all of them.

Why Join Us

Work on real enterprise AWS infrastructure in a composable commerce environment operating at scale - 30+ microservices, 40+ package monorepo, multi-cloud SaaS integrations.
Deep exposure to ecommerce security and compliance workloads (PCI, GDPR), building depth in compliance-aware cloud engineering.
Operate as the delivery bridge between engineering and product teams, with direct visibility into release quality and pipeline health across the full stack.
Ongoing opportunities to mature CI/CD practices - automated test gates, OIDC auth rollout, monorepo caching strategies, and lower-environment expansion.
Remote, full-time setup for Philippines-based candidates.
