Description

  • Develop and maintain DevOps tooling, deployment runbooks, configuration templates, and documentation for instance deployment and maintenance.
  • Lead and execute OpenFn deployments on government- and ministry-managed infrastructure, including air-gapped, low-connectivity, and sovereign-hosting environments.
  • Configure and maintain containerized deployments using Docker, Docker Compose, and Docker Swarm, and support Kubernetes-based setups where applicable.
  • Work directly with government IT teams to navigate infrastructure constraints, security requirements, and network configurations.
  • Troubleshoot infrastructure and runtime issues in the field, often with limited external resources.
  • Maintain and optimize cloud deployments on GCP, AWS, and occasionally Azure, including compute, networking, storage, and managed services.
  • Implement and maintain CI/CD pipelines for services team deployments.
  • Monitor system performance, set up alerting, and respond to infrastructure incidents across cloud-hosted client environments.
  • Advise implementation teams on cloud architecture decisions and cost optimization.
  • Build internal DevOps standards, deployment guides, and infrastructure-as-code templates for the wider services team.
  • Contribute to pre-sales and scoping conversations by advising on hosting options, feasibility, and deployment effort.
  • Work with the Principal Solutions Architect and CTO to align deployment strategy with solution architecture.

Requirements

  • 7+ years of experience in DevOps, infrastructure, or SRE roles with experience across both cloud and on-prem environments.
  • Strong hands-on experience with Docker and containerization; Docker Compose in production is essential.
  • Solid experience with at least one major cloud provider, with GCP and AWS strongly preferred and working knowledge of Azure.
  • Experience deploying and maintaining applications on on-premise or sovereign-hosting infrastructure, ideally in government, healthcare, or similarly regulated environments.
  • Proficiency with CI/CD tools and pipelines such as GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or similar.
  • Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform or Ansible.
  • Strong Linux systems administration skills, including networking, storage, and security hardening.
  • Excellent written and verbal English communication, including the ability to work directly with government IT counterparts.
  • Ability to work from home or a shared office space with fast, stable internet.
  • Preference for candidates based in Africa or Europe time zones.
  • Strong advantage: experience with Kubernetes in production environments.
  • Familiarity with monitoring and observability tools such as Prometheus and Grafana.
  • Background working with NGO technology teams, government digital transformation programs, or digital public goods deployments in Africa or Asia.
  • Working proficiency in French or Spanish.

Benefits

  • Financial compensation commensurate with experience, with fair, transparent, and competitive pay.
  • Flexible working schedule.
  • Fully remote work environment.
  • Team meetups across Europe and Africa.
  • Exposure to leading technology trends and health and humanitarian interventions.
  • Opportunity for leadership and advancement.
  • A chance to shape company strategy and have impact through open-source software.
