Cloud & DevOps
The people who keep deploys boring. Cloud engineers for migrations and landing zones, platform engineers for internal tooling, SREs for on-call rotations, and DevOps engineers who can untangle a pipeline that nobody on the current team wrote.

How we screen
Every candidate we send for a cloud & devops role has been through this, run by someone who does the work.
- 01A troubleshooting scenario on a broken deployment or failing cluster
- 02Infrastructure-as-code review: what they would change and why
- 03Certification checks where the role requires them
- 04Two references, including one covering on-call or incident work
Questions we get asked
- Will a contractor join our on-call rotation?
- If the role needs it, yes. On-call expectations and any standby pay are written into the contract before the start date, not negotiated after the first page.
