Senior DevOps / Cloud Architect

⚠️ Please note: While this position is officially marked as Hybrid with a location in Slovenia or Serbia, the work is FULLY REMOTE. This is to ensure we’re connecting with the right talent in our region — applications from outside the Balkan region, unfortunately, cannot be considered. Hi there! We’re looking for a Senior DevOps / Cloud Architect to take ownership of our cloud infrastructure and DevOps practices. This is a hands-on role that combines day-to-day infrastructure work with architectural decision-making — you’ll manage and improve existing production environments while shaping how we build and deploy new projects from scratch. Contributions to internal developer platforms or self-service tooling for dev teams.‍What we had in mind for you: Own and evolve our cloud infrastructure — primarily on AWS (EC2, ECS, and supporting services), with GCP used for our data warehouse (BigQuery), and platforms like Vercel for smaller projects.Manage and improve existing projects — understand current setups, identify areas for improvement, and raise the bar over time.Standardize infrastructure as code — we use Terraform for parts of our infra today, but not everything. You’ll drive the shift toward fully codified, reproducible environments.Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines that give development teams fast, reliable, and safe paths to production.Implement and enforce security best practices — access controls, secret management, vulnerability scanning, compliance posture.Monitor, alert, and optimize — set up and maintain observability across our services. Work with developers to diagnose performance issues and keep systems healthy.Manage cloud costs — track spend, right-size resources, identify waste, and make sure we’re getting value from what we run.Manage external services and integrations — set up and maintain email delivery (SES, SendGrid, or similar), DNS, CDNs, SSL certificates, third-party APIs, and other services that web applications depend on in production.Architect new projects from the ground up — as new projects come in, you’ll design the infrastructure, choose the right services, and set up environments from scratch.Why you'll enjoy working at d.labs💜: We collaborate on interesting international projects, trying to make a real difference.We are a remote-first organization, with coworkers from 10 different locations in the CET time zone.We work flexible working hours and have a relaxed working environment.Our teams are cross-functional, focused on one project at a time, and include developers, product managers, QA engineers, DevOps engineers, and product designers, ensuring a collaborative and creative environment.We are proud of our teamwork and enjoy working with one another.Our senior experts and managers will be your mentors and allies in helping you achieve your goals.We offer fair pay and career development opportunities.We have regular monthly 1-on-1 meetings with our managers.If you are from Slovenia, our offices in Ljubljana and Maribor will be available to you at all times, making it your choice to work from home or the office.Our strong HR team is focused on our well-being, connectedness, and development.We love to get together so we have multiple team buildings per year, summer off-site, the New Year’s party, etc. 💰 Compensation: €3,400–€5,000 gross monthly, depending on experience and seniority. If you are ready to take on this challenge and be a part of our innovative team, we would love to hear from you!
