Job Description


This is a remote position.

Join one of the Philippines' fastest-growing tech companies! Open to Philippine-based candidates only.

Company Overview

Full Scale is a tech services company that helps businesses build dedicated teams of skilled software engineers. We make finding and retaining experienced software talent easy and affordable.

Position Summary

We are looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to join our growing team and own the delivery pipeline and
runtime health of every service on a production platform for a US-based client in the automotive retail space. The platform is a real-time call-intelligence system — telephony events flowing through event-driven middleware into a CRM, with a screen-pop that surfaces customer context to the advisor before they pick up the phone — built on a multi-account AWS foundation managed entirely as code. This is not a legacy shop being modernized. The platform is already serverless-first, GitOps-driven, and built for scale. You will own the CI/CD systems, the observability stack, and the incident response practices that keep a real-time, revenue-touching platform fast and reliable. You will work alongside an AWS Architect (who designs the platform) and a Data Scientist (who deploys ML models and voice agents) to make it all shippable, monitorable, and recoverable.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own and extend the GitOps deployment model — OpenTofu/Terragrunt for infrastructure, GitHub
    Actions and AWS CodePipeline for application delivery — across all environments and AWS accounts.

  • Maintain OIDC federation for deployment identity; enforce the zero long-lived-credentials standard across every pipeline and runner.

  • Build and maintain deployment pipelines for AWS Lambda services, API Gateway configurations, containerized workloads on EKS/ECR, and the PWA front end.

  • Implement progressive delivery for the real-time call path: canary and blue/green releases, automated rollback on error-rate or latency regression, and feature flags for risky changes.

  • Manage EAS build and over-the-air update pipelines as React Native/Expo mobile and kiosk surfaces come online.

  • Own the observability stack — CloudWatch, X-Ray, structured logging, metrics, and alerting — with particular attention to the WebSocket screen-pop path and the voice agent's prefetch cache.

  • Define and instrument SLOs for the call-intelligence path. Screen-pop time-to-first-render and voiceagent lookup latency are the two numbers that matter most; own them.

  • Build runbooks and on-call rotation practices. Lead incident response and blameless post-incident reviews; drive corrective actions to completion.

  • Monitor and tune Redis caching, Aurora Serverless scaling behavior, and Lambda cold-start characteristics on latency-sensitive endpoints.

  • Operationalize defense-in-depth tooling: GuardDuty, Security Hub, Inspector, Macie, WAF/Shield, orgwide CloudTrail, and automated EventBridge remediation.

  • Own secrets management (AWS Secrets Manager / Parameter Store) and rotation for DMS, CRM, telephony, and payment integrations.

  • Integrate security scanning into the pipeline: dependency scanning, container image scanning, IaC policy checks, and secret detection on commit.

  • Support PCI-relevant controls on the secure payment link path and PII-handling controls across voice and call-intelligence services.

  • Track and report AWS spend by account, service, and workload; identify and implement optimization (right-sizing, Savings Plans, Spot for appropriate workloads, S3 lifecycle policies).

  • Provide capacity guidance ahead of new business-unit onboarding.


Requirements


  • 4+ years in a DevOps, SRE, or Platform Engineering role with production ownership.

  • Deep, hands-on AWS experience — Lambda, API Gateway, ECS/EKS, ECR, S3, Aurora, VPC networking, IAM.

  • Strong Terraform or OpenTofu skills, including module design and multi-environment patterns. Terragrunt experience strongly preferred.

  • Proven CI/CD ownership with GitHub Actions, CodePipeline, or equivalent.

  • Container fluency: Docker, and Kubernetes on EKS (Fargate and/or managed node groups).

  • Scripting and automation in Python and/or Node.js — enough to write real tooling, not just glue.

  • Practical observability experience: you have designed alerts people actually trust, not just dashboards.

  • Incident response experience in a system where downtime had immediate business consequences.

Nice to Have

  • Experience with real-time systems — WebSockets, event-driven architectures, telephony/CPaaS integrations like 3CX, Twilio, or similar.

  • AWS multi-account governance experience — Organizations, Control Tower, SCPs, IAM Identity Center, Transit Gateway.

  • Exposure to PCI DSS or comparable compliance regimes.

  • Automotive retail, DMS integration, or dealership technology background.

  • AWS certification (DevOps Engineer – Professional, Solutions Architect – Associate or above).


Benefits


Why join us:

  • Fully remote – work from anywhere in the Philippines.

  • Work on a mature, serverless-first, GitOps-driven platform — not a legacy modernization project.

  • Hands-on collaboration with senior architects and data scientists on a small, high-autonomy team.

  • Opportunity to shape the operational practices of a platform that scales to multiple business units.

  • Documentation-first culture with implementation-level detail over slideware.

  • A team environment that values ownership, technical depth, and follow-through.
