**Company:** [Homebot](https://hotfix.jobs/companies/homebot)
**Location:** Denver, CO
**Salary:** $145K-$170K
**Experience:** 5+ years
**Skills:** AWS, GCP, Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, Infrastructure As Code, Cloud-Native Architecture
**Posted:** 2026-03-20
> Senior DevOps Engineer responsible for building and operating production systems across AWS and GCP. Lead through influence by proposing architecture improvements, teaching cloud-native patterns, mentoring engineers, and owning infrastructure decisions end-to-end.
## Job Description
## Impact You'll Make
Within 1 month you will:
- Learn our platform infrastructure, developer tooling, and deployment patterns
- Identify architectural gaps and propose concrete improvements, especially where multi-cloud experience applies
- Pair with your peers on active infrastructure and Developer Experience work, building trust and sharing context both ways

Within 3 months you will:
- Own and drive at least one architecture decision that improves platform reliability or developer experience
- Be the team’s go-to resource for cloud-native design questions across AWS and GCP
- Run design discussions and teach the team patterns you’ve seen work (and fail) on other platforms

Within 6 months you will:
- Ship infrastructure improvements that measurably improve developer experience or platform stability
- Influence how we evaluate and adopt cloud services, bringing a cross-platform lens the team doesn’t have today

Within 1 year you will:
- Be a technical leader on the infrastructure team, shaping our cloud strategy and mentoring engineers
- Own major platform systems end-to-end, from design through operation
- Have made the rest of the team materially better at cloud-native engineering through teaching and collaboration

## What You Bring
- Production experience building and operating systems on both AWS and GCP (real operational ownership)
- An independent, entrepreneurial mindset
- Deep experience with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform or similar) in production environments
- Strong working knowledge of containerization: Docker, Kubernetes, Helm
- Experience with cloud-native service architecture (designing how services talk to each other, scale, and fail gracefully)
- The ability to teach (explain complex systems clearly, patient in pairing sessions)
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills (proposing architecture, writing ADRs, leading design discussions)
- Experience in a startup or high-growth environment where you had to build, not just maintain
- Experience succeeding on a hybrid-remote team

We care more about the depth and velocity of your experience than the number of years on your resume.

## Bonus Points
