DevOps Tech Lead
Grid Dynamics is looking for a DevOps Tech Lead/Architect to join the project team at a Fortune 500 home goods retailer. This is a mandate-driven role: you'll form and push through a roadmap of DevOps improvements across the account, starting hands-on to build credibility and context before growing into a broader architectural role spanning multiple projects. We're looking for someone who can shape direction, not just execute tickets — strategic judgment matters here as much as any specific tool on the list below.
Essential functions
Form an opinion on the DevOps roadmap for the account and drive it through, working across multiple project teams
Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, Groovy shared pipeline libraries) and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform/TFE)
Manage GCP cloud resources, including IAM, networking, and cost optimization (FinOps)
Set up and maintain monitoring/observability (Grafana, Loki, Prometheus) and support the team in troubleshooting
Stay hands-on with automation scripting (Python, Bash) while building toward a broader architectural and strategic role
Document key decisions (ADRs) and collaborate closely with the team via Slack, Jira, and Confluence
Qualifications
Soft Skills/Conditions:
Strong communication skills; able to represent DevOps direction and trade-offs to the team and stakeholders
Comfortable owning and pushing an improvement roadmap forward, not just executing assigned tickets
Available to work extended hours into the evening (until ~8–9 PM Kyiv time) for real-time overlap with the California-based client
Hard Skills:
Deep DevOps expertise across CI/CD, infrastructure-as-code, and cloud platforms
Proficiency with Google Cloud Platform (GCP), including IAM and networking
Terraform / Terraform Enterprise for infrastructure as code
Experience with Jenkins and Groovy-based shared pipeline libraries
Docker and Kubernetes
Monitoring/observability tooling — Grafana, Loki, Prometheus, or equivalent
Scripting proficiency in Python and/or Bash for automation
Would be a plus
Experience with Flask/SQLAlchemy or similar Python web frameworks
Helm for Kubernetes package management
Oracle DB / SQL experience
FinOps / cloud cost optimization background
Prior experience architecting DevOps practices across multiple teams or projects within one account
Retail/e-commerce domain experience
