Our Team

Our Engineering team plays a critical role developing and refining the GEEIQ data platform that helps and empowers our clients – from major brands to emerging players in various industries – to navigate the complexities of virtual worlds.

The GEEIQ engineering team is extremely collaborative, working together to not only build a great platform, but also a great team. We are on a mission to build the leading platform for brands navigating virtual worlds, and the reliability and scalability of that platform are paramount to our success.

Your Focus

As a Senior Dev Ops / SRE / Platform Engineer, you will be a key technical leader responsible for the reliability, scalability, and security of the entire GEEIQ platform. You'll tackle our biggest infrastructure challenges, from scaling our Kubernetes clusters to maturing our observability stack and refining our deployment pipelines.

We are looking for an experienced and pragmatic engineer who is passionate about building robust, automated, and secure systems. You will work alongside our existing Dev Ops engineer, mentoring them while driving our platform's technical direction. Your goal is to empower our software engineers to ship features quickly and confidently, knowing the underlying platform is rock‑solid. This is a hands‑on role where you will solve complex operational problems and build the foundation for our next stage of growth.

Platform & Infrastructure Management

• Own, manage, and evolve our AWS cloud infrastructure, ensuring it is scalable, cost‑effective, and secure.
• Lead the architecture and hands‑on implementation of our infrastructure using Terraform, maintaining and elevating our Infrastructure as Code (IaC) standards.
• Take charge of managing, scaling, and securing our heavily‑used Kubernetes (EKS) clusters and the microservices they run.
• Administer and optimize our core data services (RDS, Elasticsearch, Mongo
  
  DB) from an operational perspective, focusing on performance, backups, and resilience.

CI/CD & Developer Experience

• Re‑architect and refine our CI/CD pipelines in Git Hub Actions to make them faster, more reliable, and more secure.
• Champion developer productivity by building tools, automating workflows, and reducing friction in the development lifecycle.

Observability & Reliability (SRE)

• Lead the charge on improving our observability strategy. Design and implement a robust monitoring, logging, and alerting framework using tools like Grafana, Prometheus, and native AWS services.
• Enhance our incident response processes, contribute to on‑call rotations, and foster a culture of blameless post‑mortems.

Security & Governance

• Drive infrastructure security best practices across the board, playing a critical role in our journey towards SOC2 compliance.
• Implement and manage security controls related to IAM, network security (VPCs, security groups), vulnerability scanning, and secrets management.

What We’re Looking For

Experience:

• Extensive hands‑on experience in a Dev Ops, SRE, or Platform Engineering role, managing production systems in a cloud environment.
• Deep expertise with AWS and its core services (e.g., EKS, RDS, Lambda, EC2, S3, IAM, VPC).
• Proven, expert‑level proficiency with Terraform for managing complex infrastructure as code.
• Extensive experience…
