DevOps Engineer
Simployer AB · Tills vidare · Deadline 2026-11-11
Simployer AB is looking for a **DevOps Engineer** to shape the platform, infrastructure, and delivery pipelines that enable product teams to build, ship, and run software quickly and securely. Working in an autonomous setup with high ownership, the role focuses on designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines, managing cloud infrastructure as code, and running the container and orchestration platform with an emphasis on scaling, upgrades, and cost efficiency. Responsibilities also include embedding security practices across the delivery chain, building comprehensive observability through logging, metrics, tracing, and alerting, participating in incident response with blameless post-mortems, and supporting development teams in operating their services reliably in production. Applicants must bring recent hands-on experience running production workloads on a **major cloud platform** such as Azure or AWS, alongside solid experience in infrastructure as code using tools such as Terraform or Bicep. Candidates should also have practical experience building CI/CD pipelines in environments like GitHub Actions or Azure DevOps, working with **containers and orchestration** (preferably Kubernetes), and implementing observability tooling. The role requires a security-minded approach, proven ability to automate and simplify developer workflows, strong self-driven technical learning, and comfort setting technical direction independently.
About the role
As a DevOps Engineer, you’ll own how our teams build, ship and run software. You’ll shape the platform, pipelines and infrastructure that let teams deliver quickly and safely, and you’ll make sure our services stay reliable, observable and secure in production. You’ll work in an autonomous setup where you’re trusted to set direction, not just keep the lights on.
What you’ll do
- Design, build and maintain CI/CD pipelines that let teams release frequently and with confidence.
- Manage cloud infrastructure as code, keeping environments consistent, reproducible and easy to change.
- Run and improve our container and orchestration platform, including scaling, upgrades and cost efficiency.
- Build observability into everything we run, from logging and metrics to tracing and alerting, so problems are found before customers notice them.
- Take part in incident response, lead blameless post-mortems, and turn the learnings into lasting improvements.
- Embed security into the delivery chain, including secrets management, access control, dependency scanning and compliance requirements.
- Investigate tooling and platform alternatives, make decisions, and document and justify them on your own initiative.
- Support and enable development teams so they can own their services in production.
What we’re looking for
- Recent, hands-on experience running production workloads on a major cloud platform such as Azure or AWS.
- Solid experience with infrastructure as code (e.g. Terraform, Bicep or similar).
- Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines (e.g. GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps or similar).
- Practical experience with containers and orchestration, preferably Kubernetes.
- Experience setting up monitoring, alerting and observability tooling.
- A security-minded approach to infrastructure and delivery.
- A track record of improving how teams work by automating, simplifying and removing friction.
- Evidence that you learn new technology on your own and apply it in real work.
- Comfort taking ownership in an autonomous team and setting technical direction.
