Junior Dev Ops Engineer

Position: Junior Dev Ops Engineer
Location: Remote, US or Canada
Work Authorization: U.S. Citizenship required for all applicants (regardless of location)

About the Position:
BlueVoyant is seeking a Junior DevOps Engineer to join our Infrastructure Engineering team, responsible for building, operating, and scaling our multi‑cloud, multi‑region SaaS platform. In this role, you’ll support the systems and infrastructure that enable our services—from development through production—while growing your skills across the stack.

You’ll gain hands‑on experience with cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, observability tooling, Kubernetes, and Software Engineering. This role is ideal for someone early in their career who brings strong fundamentals, curiosity, and a willingness to learn. You’ll work alongside engineers from both software and systems backgrounds, receiving training, mentorship, and support as you develop.

About You:
You are an early‑career engineer with a passion for automation, infrastructure, and improving operational reliability. You enjoy solving technical problems, learning new tools, and working collaboratively with experienced engineers. You ask good questions, take initiative, and thrive in environments where you can learn by doing. You don’t need to be an expert in everything; curiosity, strong fundamentals, and willingness to learn are most important.

You are comfortable working across multiple domains—cloud services, CI/CD, container technologies, performance monitoring, and basic software engineering. You bring a customer‑minded approach, strong fundamentals, and a desire to contribute to reliable, scalable systems.

Responsibilities:

• Reduce operational workload by automating repeatable tasks.

• Assist with deploying, supporting, and troubleshooting services in production.

• Improve CI/CD pipelines using GitLab and Helm.

• Contribute to cloud infrastructure using Terraform.

• Support Kubernetes clusters and containerized workloads.

• Create and maintain alerts and runbooks.

• Contribute to observability across logs, metrics, and traces.

• Read and write code to support internal tooling, applications, and services.

• Participate in an on‑call rotation with full training and team support.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience. (Candidates without degrees encouraged to apply.)

• 1+ year of experience working with production or production‑like systems (projects, internships, co‑ops accepted).

• Familiarity with at least one programming or scripting language (Python, Go, Java preferred; others acceptable).

• Working knowledge of Linux/Unix fundamentals and networking basics (DNS, TLS/SSL, HTTP).

• Some exposure to Kubernetes, Docker, and/or at least one major cloud provider (AWS, GCP, or Azure).

• Basic familiarity with Infrastructure‑as‑Code concepts and tools (Terraform).

• Ability to learn quickly, follow runbooks, collaborate effectively, and ask the right questions.

• Customer‑focused approach to delivering reliable, scalable systems.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with SQL databases such as PostgreSQL, Redis, Elasticsearch, or RabbitMQ.

• Working knowledge of AWS, Azure, or GCP networking (PrivateLink, transit gateways, VPC peering, firewalls).

• Familiarity with OpenTelemetry or other application performance monitoring tools.

• Understanding of Unix system internals.

• Relevant certifications (AWS/Azure/GCP, Kubernetes, Linux, networking, security) are beneficial but not required.
