DevOps Engineer
At Delian, we design and build critical infrastructure for high-impact missions. As we expand our high-performance teams across Athens and London, we’re seeking a DevOps Engineer to join us in Athens.
This role is ideal for someone passionate about infrastructure as code, resilient distributed systems, and enabling high-velocity engineering across modern infrastructure and cloud platforms.
In this role you will get to
Lead the design and implementation of cloud infrastructure systems that ensure high availability, observability, and scalability for autonomous robotics deployments.
Design and implement scalable CI/CD pipelines for rapid and safe deployment across environments.
Define and enforce cloud-native architecture, security posture, and DevOps best practices across teams.
Drive cross-functional initiatives including multi-region deployments, real-time telemetry pipelines, disaster recovery, and infrastructure security hardening.
Own monitoring, logging, and incident response processes as cloud services and robotics fleet scale.
Collaborate with leadership to align infrastructure strategy with broader product and reliability goals, and represent the cloud platform in technical planning discussions.
Must have experience
5+ years of hands-on experience in Cloud Infrastructure designing, building, and operating production-grade cloud systems.
Proven experience in DevOps and/or site reliability, supporting and operating scalable production systems with a strong focus on automation, reliability, and operational excellence.
Deep expertise with at least one major cloud provider (AWS, GCP, or Azure), including compute, storage, networking, IAM, cost management, and high-availability system design.
Mastery of infrastructure-as-code (e.g., Terraform, Pulumi) and CI/CD systems (e.g., GitHub Actions, ArgoCD), and experience standardizing them across teams.
Proven experience building and operating production-grade Kubernetes environments and cloud-native microservice architectures.
Proficiency in a systems language (e.g., Go, Python) and a strong emphasis on automation and DevSecOps practices.
Hands-on experience with observability and telemetry systems (e.g., Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, Grafana, Datadog, ELK) and performance tuning in distributed systems.
Nice to have experience
Experience with hybrid or edge-cloud architectures, IoT, robotics, or embedded systems.
Familiarity with event-driven and streaming architectures and real-time telemetry pipelines.
Experience leading cloud migrations, greenfield platforms, or reliability initiatives at scale.
Experience defining org-wide SLOs/SLIs and scaling incident response and postmortem culture.
Contributions to open-source infrastructure tooling or leadership in DevOps communities.
Experience with deploying agentic DevOps workflows.
