Strong Middle DevOps Engineer (AWS, Terraform)

TheTop is a small, fast-moving team with a US-based business side. They are looking for a Strong Middle DevOps Engineer to own the infrastructure behind TheEngine, making environment provisioning fast and repeatable via Terraform. The role involves close collaboration with the US office, requiring overlap with US Eastern Time.

• Own and grow our Terraform codebase: modules, state management, and multi-environment and multi-account deployments
• Turn a new customer environment into a single repeatable Terraform run, from roughly a day today down to hours
• Run and improve our environments: dev, stage, demo, and isolated per-customer production cells
• Support deployments into customers’ own AWS accounts (BYOC)
• Build and maintain CI/CD on GitHub Actions: OIDC to AWS, safe rollouts and rollbacks
• Enforce security that enterprise customers expect: least-privilege IAM, secrets isolation, network segmentation, audit trails
• Set up monitoring and alerting, respond to incidents, and keep the AWS bill under control (account structure, right-sizing, cost visibility)
• Document infrastructure and changes so the team can move fast without guessing

• 3+ years of commercial DevOps / Cloud / SRE experience, including 2+ years with AWS in production
• Strong Terraform skills: writing reusable modules, managing remote state, handling multiple environments and accounts
• Hands-on experience with ECS, VPC networking, IAM, Secrets Manager and CloudWatch
• Experience building CI/CD pipelines in GitHub Actions
• Docker and containerized deployments
• Scripting in Python and/or Bash
• Solid understanding of cloud security practices
• Regular use of AI tools in daily work (Claude Code, Copilot or similar)
• Upper-Intermediate English or higher; you’ll talk directly with the US team
• Availability to work with the US office on Eastern Time: being online until 22:00–23:00 Kyiv time

• Full ownership of the infrastructure, with decisions made by you, not a committee
• Remote-first setup with a shifted schedule: start your day later to match the US office’s hours
• Direct collaboration with the engineering lead, CTO and founders
• A product already running production traffic for enterprise customers
