Senior DevOps Engineer (AWS + Hetzner)

For over 20 years, our platform has supported chefs and foodservice operators worldwide. We are now rebuilding everything for the next decade: AI-driven features, real-time data flows, global scalability, and a modern multi-cloud architecture.

This is not a maintenance role. You will own the infrastructure end-to-end and set the engineering standards for MenuWise as we scale globally.

What Youll Do

• Lead our migration to a modern AWS + Hetzner architecture.
  
• Build infrastructure that is secure, scalable, and cost-efficient.
  
• Design GitOps-style CI/CD pipelines with GitLab.
  
• Establish cloud patterns that increase developer productivity.
  
• Implement SOC-2 aligned security practices from day one.
  
• Build monitoring and alerting that just works.
  
• Produce clear, reliable documentation for engineering teams.
  
• Act as the go-to engineering partner for deployments, automation, and reliability.
