Senior DevOps Engineer, DoubleVerify

• 5+ years in DevOps, Platform Engineering, or SRE roles operating production infrastructure at scale
• 3+ years hands-on experience with Kubernetes in production environments (bonus if you've owned/managed a K8s platform)
• Strong cloud platform expertise in GCP or AWS (multi-cloud experience valued)
• Software engineering mindset - you write code (Python, Go, Bash) to solve infrastructure problems, not just configure tools
• Observability-driven troubleshooting - you're comfortable diving into metrics, logs, and traces to diagnose distributed system issues
• Platform thinking - you design for reliability, scalability, and developer experience, not just "getting it working"
• Beyond the Resume:
• Empathy for developers - you care deeply about improving the experience of engineers using your platforms
• Systems thinker - you see the big picture and understand how components interact across distributed systems
• Strong communicator - you can explain complex infrastructure concepts to application developers and collaborate across teams
• Initiative and ownership - you don't wait to be told what to do; you identify problems and drive solutions

Desirable

• The DevOps Platform team builds and operates the shared infrastructure foundation that powers all of DoubleVerify's engineering teams
• We're the team behind the platforms processing billions of events daily—Kubernetes clusters spanning cloud and data centers, streaming and data systems, workflow orchestration, and the observability stack that keeps everything running
• As a Senior Platform Engineer, you'll own critical infrastructure that hundreds of developers depend on every day
• This isn't about keeping the lights on—it's about building resilient, self-service platforms that make complex distributed systems simple to operate
• You'll work with cutting-edge technologies (Kubernetes, Kafka, Aerospike, ArgoCD, Envoy) and have the autonomy to define standards and shape how DV's infrastructure evolves as the company scales
• If you love building platforms that other engineers love using, this is your role
• Own Company-Wide Infrastructure Platforms
• Design, deploy, and operate Kubernetes platforms across GCP, AWS, and data center environments that serve as the foundation for 100+ engineering teams
• Build and maintain critical shared services: streaming (Kafka), data storage (Aerospike), workflow orchestration (Airflow), and observability (Prometheus, Grafana) that process billions of events with 99.9%+ reliability
• Elevate Developer Experience
• Create tooling and automation that transforms complex platform operations into simple self-service workflows—empowering developers while maintaining security and stability
• Drive CI/CD evolution by building operators, controllers, and management tools that reduce toil and accelerate deployment velocity
• Shape Infrastructure Standards
• Partner with product teams from day one to ensure new features integrate cleanly and reliably into DV's infrastructure, preventing technical debt before it happens
• Define and promote best practices for automation, observability, security, and maintainability that scale across the organization
• Lead Technical Projects
• Plan and deliver high-impact infrastructure initiatives in collaboration with multidisciplinary DevOps, SRE, and engineering teams across US, Israel, and Europe
• Use metrics, logs, and traces to proactively identify and resolve performance bottlenecks, turning insights into lasting improvements
