Optimal Ways

DevOps Engineer

• Reliability: Own the company-wide incident lifecycle; standards for detection, escalation, incident command, customer comms, and high-quality postmortems with action tracking.
• Define and drive SLIs/SLOs for core services; build guardrails and dashboards that make reliability visible and actionable.
• Lead production readiness reviews, capacity/performance planning, load testing, disaster recovery exercises, and resilience engineering (failure testing/chaos where appropriate).
• Level-up on-call: right-sizing rotations, paging hygiene, runbooks, auto-remediation, and continuous improvement of MTTA/MTTR.
• Security: Embed security into the delivery pipeline: dependency and image scanning, least-privilege/IAM baselines, secrets management, and service-to-service auth.
• SOC 2-aligned controls as code; audit-friendly evidence generation in everyday engineering.
• Drive secure-by-default patterns in the platform (network posture, data protection, runtime policies).
• Platform & DevEx: Build and evolve paved roads for deploys, config, and runtime operations in our monorepo (Bazel) and CI/CD (AWS CodePipeline/CodeBuild).
• Partner with product teams to make the secure default the easiest path—templates, tooling, libraries, and automation.
• Improve observability end-to-end (traces, logs, metrics, alerts).
