DevOps Team Lead ( Azure Cloud and OVH cloud)

Hello,We are called People More because we treat our employees with respect, but also because the projects we work on are for people and should be easy and pleasant to use. We are technological, but we look at the bigger picture :)People More has been in existence for over three years and is an offshoot of one of the country's oldest interactive agencies - Insignia. The company is made up of people with a huge client base in the country and abroad, for whom we build projects from scratch (UX, UI, frontend, backend, mobile) or in part. We work directly for our clients and also support our partners in their own solutions. This ensures a wide range of projects and the ability to change! We work with clients all over the world.

For the project that we are working on with our foreign partner, we are looking for DevOps Team Lead (Azure Cloud and OVHcloud)

  • GitLab Static Application Security Testing (SAST) (from SonarQube)

• Collaborate closely with the IT team to ensure seamless integration and alignment of DevOps strategies with overall infrastructure goals, primarily leveraging Azure Cloud and OVHcloud.

• Act as a technical mentor and guide for stream-aligned development teams, promoting the adoption and implementation of DevOps best practices, CI/CD principles, and automation throughout the software development lifecycle. Crucially, you'll be adept at socializing these best practices, making them accessible and understandable to various teams, fostering enthusiasm and buy-in.

• Actively participate in and lead the DevOps team, contributing to strategic planning, tool selection, and continuous improvement initiatives.

Requirements that must be met:

• CI/CD & Automation Expertise: Advanced skills in designing and optimizing GitLab CI/CD pipelines, and automating deployments and infrastructure tasks using Python, Bash, or Go.

• Monitoring & Observability: Skilled in implementing monitoring and logging solutions using tools like Prometheus, Grafana, and ELK Stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana) to ensure system health and performance.

• Cloud & DevOps Tools Mastery: Deep knowledge of Microsoft Azure and OVHcloud, along with expert-level Git usage for version control and infrastructure management.

• Leadership & Communication: Strong problem-solving and leadership skills, with a proven ability to mentor teams, drive adoption of best practices, and foster cross-functional collaboration.

• Apache Kafka: Expertise in deploying, configuring, monitoring, and maintaining highly available, scalable, and performant Kafka clusters in production environments.

• Linux Fundamentals: A strong understanding of the Linux operating system is essential.

• Demonstrated ability to excel in a global matrix organization

• Strong leadership skills

What we offer:

• We are open and honest and we solve problems instead of generating them.

• A small team

• An international working environment and international projects

• Private medical care

• Sports card

• Training courses

• Work that is 100% remote (unless you prefer another system)

We have an office in Krakow, but if you like to work remotely, that’s absolutely fine. Over the next few months, we plan to continue working this way. After that, you decide according to what you prefer. We are OK with fully remote work. For us, you can be located anywhere. :)
