DevOps Engineer · Mid-Senior · Infra

Your impact? Helping businesses stay protected and moving forward with future-ready network security.

We're looking for a DevOps Engineer to join our SRE team who's just as comfortable debugging a kernel-level networking issue as writing a clean Terraform module - someone who wants to help evolve real infrastructure at scale, not maintain a green-field lab.

• Design, build, and maintain hybrid infrastructure spanning our on-prem bare-metal fleet and AWS cloud environment;
• Build and evolve Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform and Terragrunt) and configuration management (Puppet/Ansible) across both environments;
• Maintain and improve the platform's network stack - routing, load balancing, tunneling, and security features;
• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines (GitLab CI) supporting infrastructure and platform delivery;
• Participate in incident response and contribute to postmortems, helping improve reliability practices over time;
• Explore and apply AI tools to reduce toil and improve automation, tooling, and incident response across the team;
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Product and other engineering teams to translate business needs into infrastructure solutions;
• Bring your own ideas - this team wants engineers who improve how we work, not just execute a backlog.

• 3+ years of hands-on Linux systems/infrastructure experience;
• Solid understanding of networking fundamentals (IPv4, routing, bridging, proxies, DNS);
• Practical, production experience with AWS (e.g. EC2, VPC, IAM, RDS, ECS);
• Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform);
• CI/CD pipeline experience (GitLab CI preferred);
• Comfortable scripting (Bash and Python) to automate operational work.
• Genuine enthusiasm for AI tools and workflows, with hands-on experience applying them to real infrastructure work (e.g. automation, incident response, tooling).

Nice to have

• Experience writing and maintaining reusable Terraform modules;
• Configuration management experience with Puppet and/or Ansible;
• Experience with unix network tools and tunneling protocols (iptables, nftables, OpenVPN, IPSec, WireGuard, Bind/PowerDNS);
• Applied cybersecurity principles (least privilege, defense in depth, secrets management).
• Experience with container/virtualization environments (Docker, Kubernetes, LXC, microVMs, ECS);
• AWS certification (SysOps Administrator or Solutions Architect Associate);
• Experience with Terragrunt.

• Sharpen your edge Growth is built into how we work. Extensive online and in-person training programs, access to platforms like Coursera and Skillshare, a mentorship program, and internal career moves when you’re ready for something new — your development has no ceiling here.
• Take the time you need Rest isn’t a reward — it’s part of the deal. Enjoy extra vacation days that grow with your time here, plus additional days off for sick leave, special occasions, and parenting.
• Get premium healthcare Your health shouldn’t be something you worry about. We provide premium private health insurance so you have peace of mind and fast access to care whenever you need it. Available in Lithuania and Poland.
• Protect your peace A peaceful mind isn’t a luxury — it’s the foundation. We provide free subscriptions to top-rated Calm, Headspace, and Mindletic apps, offer resilience and mindfulness trainings, and run dedicated mental health events.
• Own your fitness Feeling good shapes how you work, think, and create. That’s why we offer in-house gyms, Multisport and Urban Sport cards, and online workouts. Need something tailored? Our Physical Well-Being experts are here with group mobility sessions, fitness guidance, and one-on-one consultations.
• Pack your bags for workation Picture this: the entire company flies out abroad. The days are packed with workshops, activities, concerts, and real time together. It’s legendary. If you’ve heard stories, they’re probably true.
• Work from anywhere New surroundings spark new thinking. When you need a reset, switch location and work from wherever keeps you sharp, creative, and in the zone.
• Celebrate your milestones The moments that make life special shouldn’t pass quietly. Birthdays, work anniversaries, weddings, new family members — each is marked with a special gift.
• Parent with ease When you’re a parent, the juggle is real. To make it smoother, we organize summer camps for the little ones and offer flexibility that lets you show up both for your family and your team.
• Join the party It never gets boring here. Get ready for team buildings that bring people closer, year-round company events that are equal parts educational and energizing, and the highlights everyone waits for — our iconic summer and winter celebrations.
• Unlock Cyber City Whether Vilnius-based or visiting from remote, our Vilnius HQ is fully yours to enjoy. Need focus? Silent room. Need energy? Open gyms. Need a break? Game room, music room, coffee bar. It’s a modern workspace built with your comfort in mind.
