Responsibilities include implementing CI/CD, IaC, observability platforms, championing AIOps tooling, and enforcing SRE practices like SLIs/SLOs and incident response.

About You

You are passionate about the role and thrive on solving complex problems with a talented team of colleagues who both challenge and support you. You believe in lifelong learning, constantly honing your skills and staying on the cutting edge of technology. Most importantly, you want to engage your talents to make a meaningful difference by revolutionizing the cargo industry.

About the role

We’re seeking a hands-on Sr. Engineering Manager to lead our DevOps, Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), and Database teams. You’ll be responsible for building scalable, secure, and high-performing cloud infrastructure — with a strong emphasis on Azure Cloud — while fostering a culture of reliability, automation, and continuous improvement.

 

What you'll do

  • Lead and mentor a distributed team of DevOps, SRE, and Database engineers.
  • Architect and operate secure, scalable, and cost-efficient Azure Cloud environments.
  • Implement and optimize CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code (IaC), and observability platforms.
  • Champion AIOps and AI-driven tooling (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Azure DevOps AI, intelligent alerting) to improve developer productivity and operational efficiency.
  • Establish and enforce SRE practices — SLIs/SLOs, incident response, on-call processes, and postmortems.
  • Oversee performance, scalability, and reliability of PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, CosmosDB and Redis databases in production.
  • Partner cross-functionally with product and engineering teams to align infrastructure with business priorities.
  • Drive cost optimization, disaster recovery, and security compliance initiatives

 

Qualifications

  • 10+ years of experience in DevOps, Infrastructure, or SRE roles, including 3+ years of leadership experience managing multiple teams.
  • Deep hands-on expertise with Azure Cloud, including networking, identity, security, and monitoring services.
  • Proficiency in Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, Azure DevOps, and CI/CD ecosystems.
  • Proven experience managing relational and NoSQL databases at scale.
  • Experience building observability stacks with Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, or Azure Monitor.
  • Strong problem-solving, communication, and mentoring skills.
  • Track record of integrating AI tools to reduce toil and improve operational insights.

 

Nice to Have

  • Experience in multi-cloud environments (AWS or GCP).
  • Familiarity with AIOps, MLOps, or GenAI-assisted automation.
  • Experience working in regulated or enterprise-scale environments (e.g., finance, healthcare).
  • Prior success in high-growth startups or scaling SaaS platforms
