Quantum Motion is seeking a Senior DevOps Engineer to bridge strategy and execution, focusing on automation and managing both cloud and on-premise infrastructure. This role offers significant opportunities for professional growth and impact within a company shaping the future of quantum computing.
Responsibilities
- Design, provision, and manage large-scale, highly available cloud infrastructure platforms, optimizing for heavy compute workloads and high-concurrency applications.
- Implement and maintain modular IaC (Terraform or CloudFormation) to automate the provisioning of secure, low-latency, and multi-region cloud environments.
- Architect and maintain high-performance, high-IOPS cloud storage solutions, ensuring seamless data synchronisation, backup strategies, and optimal throughput.
- Automate the deployment, configuration, and auto-scaling of workload orchestrators, container platforms, and core service components.
- Enforce strict security protocols across all environments by implementing Zero Trust architectures, secure IAM roles, and automated configuration management.
- Provide expert-level support for complex infrastructure and platform issues, documenting automated workflows and mentoring junior team members.
Requirements
- Proven track record of architecting, deploying, and maintaining production-grade, highly scalable workloads on AWS.
- Deep expertise in Terraform (preferred) and CloudFormation for building modular, version-controlled infrastructure environments.
- Solid knowledge of high-performance and distributed cloud storage solutions (e.g., Amazon FSx, EFS, EBS, NetApp ONTAP).
- Expert-level proficiency with Enterprise Linux distributions (RHEL/Rocky/Ubuntu) and systems-level troubleshooting.
- Professional proficiency in Python or Bash for building automation tooling, custom monitoring scripts, and complex system integrations.
- Deep understanding of enterprise IAM patterns, including Active Directory/LDAP integration for consistent access control across hybrid environments.
- Ability to translate complex infrastructural scaling decisions into actionable guidance for development teams and cost-benefit updates for leadership.
