About the Role: 

We are seeking a talented and motivated DevOps Engineer to join a small team supporting a much larger engineering organization. This role presents an exciting opportunity to thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment with a high sense of ownership, and abundant prospects for career advancement.

You will serve as a core member of our Platform Engineering team, building the systems, tooling, and automation that keep a 150-person engineering organization shipping high-quality software at high velocity. This role blends DevOps, CI/CD, developer experience, and platform ownership with a manufacturing-inspired focus on quality, reliability, waste reduction, and continuous improvement.

You’ll expand and maintain our CI/CD pipelines, container build environments, Kubernetes deployment workflows, internal developer platforms, and automation systems. Your day-to-day work will alternate between supporting developers and unblocking them quickly, and executing longer-term platform improvements. As you grow, you will have opportunities to influence platform architecture, contribute to internal Golang tooling, shape our internal package ecosystem, and participate in ML/AI infrastructure initiatives.

What You'll Do:

Developer Support & Cross-Team CollaborationAct as a technical partner to developers—debugging pipelines, build failures, and deployment/configuration issues.

• Diagnose CI/CD failures across GitLab, Helm, Kubernetes, and container build systems.
• Work closely with engineers across the company to understand pain points and opportunities for tooling enhancements.

Continuous ImprovementLeverage AI tooling to help yourself and other teams be more productive in pipeline development and troubleshooting.

• Continue building new AI tooling into the pipelines and deployments, partnering with the infrastructure, security, and developer teams to automate as much as we can and find problems early.

Promote best practices in DevOps, CI/CD, deployment reliability, and platform operations.

• Measure and optimize the performance, reliability, and maintainability of CI/CD pipelines and platform services.
• Drive initiatives to reduce waste in the development lifecycle:
• Implement guardrails and automation that improve quality without slowing velocity.

Platform Tooling & Infrastructure EngineeringBuild, maintain, and scale CI/CD tooling.

• Design and evolve Kubernetes-based deployment workflows using GitLab, Helm, and best-practice DevOps patterns.
• Own platform and infrastructure components that accelerate development—observing bottlenecks, reducing friction, and eliminating repetitive work.
• Participate in planning for capacity, scaling, and modernization of shared platform components.

What We Look For:

• At least 3 years of DevOps, platform, or full-stack software engineering experience.
• Practical experience with Kubernetes, Helm, and containerized deployment workflows.
• Comfort with shell scripting and automation in Linux-based environments.
• Familiarity with AI-based dev tooling, such as Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor.
• BS in Computer Science or similar degree, or equivalent work experience.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with Sezzle’s Technology Stack (see below):
• Golang (for internal tooling, CLIs, or operators)
• Gitlab CI/CD
• ArgoCD
• or quality metrics systems
• Infrastructure-as-code (Terraform)
• Security-focused tooling (image scanning, SBOMs, policy enforcement)
• Manufacturing/lean mindset—continuous improvement, eliminating waste, systemizing processes.

About You: 

• You have relentlessly high standards - many people may think your standards are unreasonably high. You are continually raising the bar and driving those around you to deliver great results. You make sure that defects do not get sent down the line and that problems are fixed so they stay fixed.
• You’re not bound by convention - your success—and much of the fun—lies in developing new ways to do things
• You need action - speed matters in business. Many decisions and actions are reversible and do not need extensive study. We value calculated risk-taking.
• You earn trust - you listen attentively, speak candidly, and treat others respectfully.
• You have backbone; disagree, then commit - you can respectfully challenge decisions when you disagree, even when doing so is uncomfortable or exhausting. You have conviction and are tenacious. You do not compromise for the sake of social cohesion. Once a decision is determined, you commit wholly.
• You deliver results - you focus on the key inputs and deliver them with the right quality and in a timely fashion. Despite setbacks, you rise to the occasion and never settle.

Sezzle’s Technology Stack:

• Languages: Shell/Bash, Golang, Python, Typescript
• Frontend: Typescript - React and React Native
  Backend: Golang
• CI/Deployments: Gitlab, Bash, Helm, Kubernetes
• Platform Infra: ArgoCd, Terraform, AWS
• Observability: Grafana, Prometheus, Loki
• Databases: MySQL, Postgres, Elasticsearch
• Version Control: Git
• Testing: Developer-driven, focus on automated unit, integration, and end-to-end tests
• Sezzle is focused on using open source, and we build what we can before buying!
