What I'm looking for
I’m a Junior DevOps Engineer with 2 years of hands-on experience in cloud infrastructure, automation, and CI/CD pipeline management within the iGaming industry. At Betsson Group, I deploy and manage production infrastructure for new gaming markets across multiple regions, building consistent, repeatable deployments with Terraform and Ansible.
I also focus on operational excellence—implementing monitoring and alerting with Prometheus and CloudWatch, designing custom reporting with OpenSearch and CloudWatch, and supporting incident response through on-call rotation. I manage containerized services using Docker and Amazon ECS, and I’ve built automation with Python, including an AI-powered image processing microservice for backoffice integration.
