Sr Devops Engineer

Exxat is a US-headquartered company building a cloud-based platform that powers Health

Sciences education at top universities through an all-in-one suite of tools. We are looking for a

Senior DevOps Engineer to take ownership of our cloud infrastructure, deployment processes,

and system reliability. In this role, you’ll lead Kubernetes operations, manage CI/CD pipelines,

and drive automation across environments. You'll work closely with engineering and product

teams to enable fast, secure, and scalable delivery. From infrastructure as code using Terraform

to implementing observability with Prometheus and Grafana, you’ll shape and scale the

systems that power our platforms. You’ll also lead incident response, enforce DevOps best

practices, and contribute to continuous improvement in cloud security and cost optimization.

This is a high-impact role in a fast-moving, product-first environment where engineers have
