DevOps Engineer

About the Role

As a DevOps Engineer at Locus, you will take end-to-end ownership of our cloud infrastructure. This includes designing, scaling, and operating systems to ensure reliability and efficiency. You will be instrumental in shaping the future of our B2B SaaS platform.

Responsibilities

• Own the design, architecture, and reliability of Locus's cloud infrastructure across AWS, Azure, GCP, and Aliyun, supporting multi-region, global deployments.
• Lead the evolution of our CI/CD ecosystem, optimize and refactor our Jenkins-as-Code setup for scalability, performance, and developer efficiency.
• Drive the Infrastructure as Code (IaC) journey end-to-end, migrating existing cloud resources, alarms, and configurations fully into code with strong versioning, review, and rollback practices.
• Partner with engineering teams to identify and resolve performance, scalability, and reliability bottlenecks, conducting deep dives into memory, CPU, networking, and storage constraints.
• Define and implement monitoring, alerting, and incident response best practices, improving MTTR, system observability, and operational readiness.
• Lead initiatives around cost optimization, security hardening, and capacity planning, ensuring infrastructure remains efficient and compliant as the platform scales.
• Act as a technical mentor for junior DevOps engineers and raise the overall DevOps maturity across teams.

Ideal Candidate Profile

• Experience: 6+ years in DevOps/SRE/Infrastructure roles with demonstrable experience in handling large-scale infrastructure (traffic, uptime, latency, infra size).
• SaaS Background: Experience in a B2B SaaS company with multi-tenant architecture or multiple production stacks (multi-env/multi-client systems).
• Cloud & Infrastructure: Hands-on experience with AWS (VPC, EKS, EC2, RDS, networking), Kubernetes (EKS) at scale, and designing high availability, multi-region systems.
• Automation & IaC: Proficiency in Terraform, Helm/GitOps, and strong scripting skills (Python/Go/Bash).
• CI/CD & Release: Experience with scalable CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions/Jenkins) and zero/low downtime deployments.
• Reliability & Observability: Solid understanding of SRE principles (SLOs, SLIs, error budgets) and experience with monitoring tools (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog), alerting, on-call, and incident management.
• Education: BTech in Computer Science or a related field.
• Company Type: Experience in strong B2B SaaS product companies with significant scale.
