Sr. DevOps Engineer

Job Overview

At Homebot, we believe every team member plays a vital role in bringing our mission to life. We do this by keeping a clear focus on culture, engagement, and creating an environment where people are valued and can thrive. Homebot is a Homeownership Platform for Lenders and Real Estate, Title & Insurance Agents that drives Client retention and Partner referrals. Homebot’s “special sauce” is that it helps homeowners and homebuyers (aka: our customer’s clients) to build wealth through homeownership. Our customers include Mortgage Lenders, Real Estate Agents, Banks, Credit Unions, Loan Servicers, Insurance agencies and Title Companies.

Our engineering infrastructure team is strong, motivated, and growing. What we’re missing is deep, hands-on experience building production systems across multiple cloud platforms. We need a Senior DevOps Engineer who has done real work in both AWS and GCP. This isn’t just a heads-down ticket-closer role. You’ll be a teacher, an architect, and a thought partner to the rest of the organization. You’ll lead through influence: proposing better patterns, pairing with engineers, running design discussions, and raising the bar on how we think about cloud-native systems.

Key Responsibilities

• Within 1 month you will: Learn our platform infrastructure, developer tooling, and deployment patterns


• Identify architectural gaps and propose concrete improvements, especially where multi-cloud experience applies


• Pair with your peers on active infrastructure and Developer Experience work, building trust and sharing context both ways


• Within 3 months you will: Own and drive at least one architecture decision that improves platform reliability or developer experience


• Be the team’s go-to resource for cloud-native design questions across AWS and GCP


• Run design discussions and teach the team patterns you’ve seen work (and fail) on other platforms


• Within 6 months you will: Ship infrastructure improvements that measurably improve developer experience or platform stability


• Influence how we evaluate and adopt cloud services, bringing a cross-platform lens the team doesn’t have today


• Within 1 year you will: Be a technical leader on the infrastructure team, shaping our cloud strategy and mentoring engineers


• Own major platform systems end-to-end, from design through operation


• Have made the rest of the team materially better at cloud-native engineering through teaching and collaboration

Required Qualifications

• Production experience building and operating systems on both AWS and GCP. Not just “familiar with,” but real operational ownership.


• An independent, entrepreneurial mindset


• Deep experience with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform or similar) in production environments


• Strong working knowledge of containerization: Docker, Kubernetes, Helm


• Experience with cloud-native service architecture, not just deploying apps but designing how services talk to each other, scale, and fail gracefully


• The ability to teach. You explain complex systems clearly, you’re patient in pairing sessions, and you make the people around you better engineers.


• Excellent written and verbal communication skills. You’ll be proposing architecture, writing ADRs, and leading design discussions.


• Experience in a startup or high-growth environment where you had to build, not just maintain


• Experience succeeding on a hybrid-remote team
