What do we need

Dotmatics is seeking a DevOps Engineer to join our team working on ground-breaking Scientific Software products such as Luma. In this role, you will have the opportunity to apply your knowledge to help improve our processes, infrastructure and security by applying best practices with the latest technologies. You will be AI fluent and know how AI influences engineering and DevOps

In this role you will get to:

Design and manage CI/CD and deployment pipelines for both AWS-native and Kubernetes-based applications
Provide advice/assistance to the product teams, clarifying requirements for deployment
Collaborate with product teams on cloud and container best practices
Manage IT infrastructure in cloud computing environments
Automation: Use CI tools to automate code changes, builds, testing, and analysis
Monitoring: Monitor performance after release
Develop and improve monitoring systems for automated alerts
Strategy: Design and manage the DevOps infrastructure, pipelines, and processes
SECURITY: Embed security into every stage of the delivery lifecycle (DevSecOps), including automated SAST, DAST, dependency, secrets, and container image scanning in CI/CD pipelines
SECURITY: Implement and enforce least-privilege IAM, network segmentation, encryption in transit and at rest, and secrets management (e.g. AWS Secrets Manager, Vault, KMS)
SECURITY: Harden Kubernetes clusters and cloud environments using policy-as-code, admission controls, runtime protection, and CIS/NIST benchmarks
SECURITY: Support vulnerability management, incident response, audit readiness, and compliance efforts (e.g. SOC 2, ISO 27001)
AI: Use AI-assisted tooling to accelerate pipeline development, infrastructure code, troubleshooting, and incident analysis
AI: Apply AI/ML-driven capabilities to monitoring, including anomaly detection, alert noise reduction, and automated root-cause analysis
AI: Build and operate deployment pipelines and infrastructure for AI/ML and LLM-based workloads, including model serving, GPU-enabled clusters, and cost controls
AI: Establish guardrails for responsible AI use in engineering workflows, including data privacy, access controls, and review of AI-generated code and configuration

We are looking for people who have 8+ years of experience maintaining high-traffic applications and complex technical infrastructure. You will be someone with a proven background in supporting cloud environments, with hands-on experience translating AWS Well-Architected principles into action.

The key skills we are looking for:

Kubernetes clusters/customer cloud environments
AWS (ECS, EKS, ALB, EC2, S3, RDS, CloudFront, Route53, etc.)
Infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, CloudFormation, Pulumi)
CI/CD tools (Octopus Deploy, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, TeamCity, CodePipeline, etc.)
APMs and logging (e.g. Datadog, Grafana, Prometheus, Loki, ELK, App Insights)
Networking concepts in cloud environments
Software development lifecycle processes/version control
Security: DevSecOps practices, AWS security services (IAM, GuardDuty, Security Hub, WAF, Config, KMS), container and supply chain security (image signing, SBOMs), and security scanning tools (e.g. Trivy, Snyk, SonarQube, Checkov)
Security: Familiarity with Kubernetes security (RBAC, network policies, Pod Security Standards, OPA/Kyverno) and secrets management
AI: Practical experience using AI coding and operations assistants (e.g. GitHub Copilot, Claude, Amazon Q) to improve engineering productivity
AI: Understanding of how to deploy and operate AI/ML workloads (e.g. Amazon Bedrock, SageMaker, model-serving on Kubernetes) and observe their performance and cost
AI: Awareness of AI-specific risks such as prompt injection, data leakage, and insecure AI-generated code

You may also have:

Scripting languages (e.g. Python, Bash)
Linux administration and networking (e.g. HTTP/2)
Microservice and serverless architectures
Experience with GitOps tooling (e.g. Argo CD, Flux)
Experience building internal tooling or agents that apply AI to DevOps workflows (e.g. automated incident triage, ChatOps)
Relevant certifications (e.g. AWS Certified DevOps Engineer, AWS Security Specialty, CKA/CKS)
Databases (e.g. PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB)
Exposure to AI-enabled tooling or workflows, with openness to incorporating AI into day-to-day work

Research shows us the confidence gap and imposter syndrome can get in the way of meeting outstanding candidates, so please don’t hesitate to apply — we’d love to hear from you.
