Windfall is developing its infrastructure engineering function and looking for a Sr. DevOps Engineer to lead the way. You will apply your understanding of modern best practices to create a stable and secure system. Working closely with our engineering, data science, and product teams, you’ll develop and implement a roadmap that prepares Windfall Data for its next stage of growth. As the first lead in this role, you will have the opportunity to set and execute your vision for managing reproducibility, CI/CD, monitoring, and incident response. 

Windfall’s systems offer a mix of data-heavy ETL workloads and SaaS applications, giving you a wide range of infrastructure challenges to manage. Our product offers data volume and variety on par with much larger, legacy people data companies and will push you to innovate continually.

Responsibilities:

    • Lead Windfall’s approach to infrastructure management
    • Hands-on design and development of our approach to infrastructure-as-code and change management
    • Work with key stakeholders to develop strategies for deployment, monitoring, and incident response
    • Understand cloud provider managed offerings and utilize them whenever possible
    • Balance trade-offs between quality, complexity, and speed of delivery

Requirements:

    • 8+ years of infrastructure development, SRE, and/or DevOps experience
    • 3+ years of experience working with Kubernetes
    • 2+ years of infrastructure-as-code experience in a cloud environment
