The Role We're looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to join our current infrastructure team of 4 engineers. You'll take ownership of how we build, deploy, and operate our cloud platform. We’re actively investing in modernization: migrating to a fully cloud-native architecture, improving compliance posture, and moving toward platform self-service for our development teams. Our client, Miaplaza, is a US-based company with team members across multiple countries and cultures. We value transparent communication and expect everyone to collaborate respectfully and effectively across differences. We have legacy systems (self-hosted, on-prem, limited scalability etc.) but we are transitioning to modern architectures, hosted services and cloud-native. The split between legacy and new work varies by period, but you should be comfortable working across both, bringing modern practices to new systems while pragmatically maintaining and migrating older ones. A core goal of the modernization effort is to consolidate and shrink the stack: replacing legacy tooling with modern equivalents, adopting managed services where they make sense, and reducing the operational surface the team has to maintain. Every migration decision is measured against whether it lowers the daily burden on the team.
