As a DevOps Team Manager, you will lead the strategy, execution, and continuous improvement of our DevOps function while remaining closely involved in the technical direction of infrastructure, automation, cloud operations, and deployment processes.
This is a hybrid leadership role that combines technical DevOps leadership, people management, and Agile delivery management. You will provide technical oversight across cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, automation, monitoring, and system reliability while ensuring the team consistently delivers high-impact outcomes through effective Agile execution.
This is not a traditional Scrum Master role. We are looking for a leader who brings technical credibility, removes organizational friction, drives continuous improvement, and helps engineers build scalable, secure, and reliable systems.

- Provide technical leadership across cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, automation, monitoring, and deployment.
- Ensure system reliability, scalability, security, performance, and availability.
- Drive infrastructure automation, DevOps best practices, and continuous improvement.
- Evaluate and implement tools, including AI-assisted solutions, to improve engineering efficiency.
Agile Delivery Leadership
- Own and prioritize the DevOps backlog, balancing business priorities, operational needs, and technical debt.
- Define the team's roadmap and delivery priorities with engineering leadership.
- Facilitate Scrum ceremonies, remove blockers, and manage delivery risks.
- Communicate progress, priorities, and risks to stakeholders.
- Continuously improve Agile processes and team delivery.
People Leadership
- Lead, mentor, and develop a high-performing DevOps team.
- Set goals, provide coaching and feedback, and support career development.

Operational Excellence
- Ensure production systems are secure, reliable, and highly available.
- Lead incident response and root cause analysis to improve system resilience.

- Experience with monitoring, logging, and observability platforms.
- Strong understanding of Linux systems, networking fundamentals, and automation scripting.
