Your Mission

We are seeking a passionate and experienced Staff DevOps Engineer to join our dynamic DevOps team at a leading entertainment company. You will play a key role in shaping our DevOps culture, bridging the gap between Development and Platform Engineering, and implementing innovative solutions. You will have the opportunity to collaborate with industry leading technologies to solve complex problems in our multi-cloud environment.

This role goes beyond technical execution — we’re looking for a strategic leader who can own projects end-to-end, architect scalable solutions, and champion DevOps excellence across teams. You’ll be the technical face of DevOps, driving cross-functional collaboration and mentoring junior engineers.

What You’ll Do

• Define and implement DevOps best practices, including CI/CD pipelines, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), and configuration management.
• Architect and implement robust infrastructure solutions across multi-cloud environments (AWS, Azure).
• Automate tasks and optimize workflows to continuously improve our DevOps processes.
• Design and implement monitoring and alerting systems to ensure infrastructure health and application performance.
• Partner with Development and Product teams to understand their needs and identify opportunities for DevOps adoption.
• Lead DevOps initiatives and own the outcome of key projects from inception to delivery.
• Break down complex projects into actionable Jira tasks and drive execution with clarity and accountability.
• Serve as the technical liaison for DevOps across engineering and product teams, ensuring alignment and transparency.
• Share knowledge and solutions with the broader team through documentation, presentations, and technical deep-dives.
• Mentor junior engineers and act as the go-to resource for guidance, troubleshooting, and career development.
• Stay up to date on the latest DevOps trends and best practices

What You Bring

• 10+ years of experience as a DevOps Engineer or related role.
• Proven track record of leading complex technical projects and delivering high-impact outcomes.
• Strong programming experience with Python or Go.
• Expertise in CI/CD principles and automation tools.
• Deep understanding of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) methodologies (e.g., Terraform, Ansible).
• In-depth knowledge of cloud platforms (AWS, Azure) and their associated services (e.g., CDN, CND Edge, ECS, EKS, Batch services).
• Experience with monitoring and alerting tools (e.g., Datadog, Prometheus, PagerDuty).
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with a focus on documentation and cross-team collaboration.
• Ability to break down technical work into structured Jira tasks and manage execution effectively.
• Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to lead, mentor, and inspire team members.
• A passion for developer productivity, tooling, and continuous improvement.
• Experience working in a fast-paced, agile environment.
• Familiarity with streaming tools like Mux, Akamai, and watermarking is a plus.
• Programming background with DevOps strength is highly preferred.
• Self-motivation, outstanding communication skills, and a great team-player attitude who can “switch hats” comfortably and effectively.
