If you’re an expert in Google Cloud Platform DevOps (DevOps / Kubernetes / Istio / Helm / Docker) who wants to keep learning and honing your skills in a startup while having the flexibility to work when and where you want, and using your experience to improve the infrastructure of a successful video marketing platform, then this is the opportunity for you.

We’re Vidalytics.com - a MarTech SaaS looking for a talented and experienced DevOps Engineer to help us with ongoing DevOps.

You'll work closely with our CTO, who ensures we build a solid, bug-free, scalable product that users love.

We're doing 10s of millions of video plays a month that all collect marketing analytics on all these, which creates a lot of requests and high loads in our infrastructure.

The person in this role will be key to optimize this load and our platform full-time.

What we’ll expect from you: 🔥

Deep knowledge and expertise, specifically in Kubernetes / Docker on GCP’s GKE including Istio, Helm, and Spinnaker. GCP/GKE certification is a big plus.
Be someone who takes initiative/ownership and that we can trust and rely on to do what you say you will do.
Communicating with us about potential issues, blockers, changes made, etc.
A desire to be challenged, learn and grow.
Passion for the end-user experience.
Fluent English skills (verbal and written).
