Senior DevOps Engineer – Data Platforms (GCP | Build & Scale)

🚀 We’re hiring: Senior DevOps Engineer (GCP | Data Engineering Platforms)

Build the DevOps foundation that powers large‑scale data platforms.

Join our Development Center in Bucharest and work with a world‑class international client on modern data engineering platforms. This is not a generic DevOps role—you’ll design, build, and operate the DevOps capabilities that data engineers rely on to develop, deploy, and run data pipelines safely and at scale across hybrid on‑prem & Google Cloud environments.

🔹 Your impact

You’ll act as a key technical partner for data engineers and architects, transforming platform requirements into automated, secure, observable, and cloud‑native DevOps solutions that enable teams to ship data products faster and more reliably.

🔹 What you’ll do

✅ Design and operate DevOps capabilities for data engineering workloads (ingestion, transformation, orchestration, analytics)

✅ Build and manage GCP infrastructure optimized for batch & streaming data platforms

✅ Own GitHub as the system of record for infrastructure, CI/CD, and platform code

✅ Design and maintain CI/CD pipelines for data pipelines, orchestration workflows, and infrastructure

✅ Implement Infrastructure as Code (IaC) for hybrid and cloud resources

✅ Build and operate containerized platforms using Docker & Kubernetes

✅ Implement observability for data systems (pipeline health, SLAs, failures, performance)

✅ Partner with teams to enforce security, access control, secrets management, and compliance

✅ Continuously optimize performance, scalability, and cost efficiency

✅ Collaborate closely with data engineers, architects, and analytics teams to deliver self‑service DevOps solutions

🔹 What we’re looking for

✔️ Strong experience as a DevOps / Platform / SRE Engineer supporting data platforms

✔️ Hands‑on expertise with GitHub‑first engineering practices (PRs, workflows, CI/CD automation)

✔️ Solid cloud experience, with a strong focus on Google Cloud Platform (GCP)

✔️ Proven experience building CI/CD pipelines for data platforms and infrastructure

✔️ Hands‑on Infrastructure as Code experience (Terraform or similar)

✔️ Strong Linux and automation skills (Python, Bash, etc.)

✔️ Practical experience with Docker and Kubernetes

✔️ Experience implementing monitoring, logging, and alerting for distributed systems

✔️ Good understanding of security, networking, and IAM in enterprise environments

🔹 Nice to have

✨ GCP certifications (Professional Cloud DevOps Engineer, Cloud Architect)

✨ Experience with Dataproc, Dataflow, BigQuery, Cloud Storage

✨ Workflow orchestration tools (Airflow, Cloud Composer)

✨ CI/CD integration for data pipelines

✨ Big Data & distributed processing technologies

✨ Experience building self‑service platforms for data teams

🌟 Why join us?

• High‑impact role at the intersection of DevOps & Data Engineering

• Modern GCP‑based architecture with real scale and complexity

• Strong ownership and influence on platform design

• Continuous learning, certifications, and career growth

• Collaborative, open‑minded engineering culture
