A junior DevOps engineering role for someone eager to develop practical cloud and infrastructure skills. You will work with AWS, GitLab CI/CD, and monitoring systems while supporting secure and highly available infrastructure, with experienced engineers providing hands-on mentorship as your responsibilities grow.
Highlights
Hands-on, mentored DevOps role with real infrastructure ownership from the early weeks, support from experienced engineers, and a clear opportunity to grow into greater technical responsibility.
Description
Rivogaming builds a multi-tenant iGaming platform — casino, sportsbook, wallet, and payments — for fast-growing markets, running on AWS with a modern, container-based infrastructure.
We're a lean engineering team where every hire has real ownership from day one, and where reliability isn't an afterthought — it's core to what we build.
The Role
As a Junior DevOps Engineer, you'll join our infrastructure team and learn to keep our platform fast, secure, and always available.
You'll work alongside experienced DevOps engineers on our AWS cloud environment, our GitLab CI/CD pipelines, and the monitoring stack that keeps our team ahead of problems instead of reacting to them.
This is a hands-on, mentored role: you'll be trusted with real infrastructure work from your first weeks, with senior engineers guiding you as you grow into greater ownership.

What You'll Do
Support and maintain our AWS infrastructure (EC2, EBS, EKS, S3, VPC, ALB) alongside senior DevOps engineers, learning Infrastructure-as-Code practices with Terraform.Help build and maintain GitLab CI/CD pipelines and the Helm charts they deploy — contributing to build, test, and deployment stages under guidance.Assist with containerisation and orchestration work: writing and maintaining Dockerfiles, and getting hands-on exposure to Kubernetes (EKS) via Helm, across our dev and staging environments (with production on the roadmap).Monitor platform health using our observability stack (Grafana, VictoriaMetrics, and VictoriaLogs) and help investigate alerts as part of a supportive on-call rotation.Write and improve infrastructure documentation — runbooks, setup guides, and architecture notes — so knowledge never lives in just one person's head.Support day-to-day developer experience: helping keep local development environments (Docker Compose) in sync with production.Learn and apply infrastructure security fundamentals: IAM basics, secrets management (HashiCorp Vault), and patching practices, with senior engineers reviewing your work.
What We're Looking For
0–2 years of experience in DevOps, sysadmin, or backend engineering — internships, personal projects, and bootcamps count.Basic understanding of Linux systems administration and comfort working from the command line.Some exposure to a cloud provider (AWS preferred, but GCP/Azure experience is fine too) — coursework or personal projects welcome.Familiarity with Docker and basic containerisation concepts.Scripting ability in Bash or Python — you don't need to be an expert, but you should be comfortable writing and debugging scripts.A genuine curiosity about how production systems work, and a willingness to ask questions and learn fast.
Nice to Have
Exposure to Terraform or another Infrastructure-as-Code tool.Coursework, certifications (e.g.
AWS Cloud Practitioner/Associate), or personal projects involving Kubernetes.Experience with CI/CD tools (GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or similar).Curiosity about GitOps (we're rolling out ArgoCD) or event-streaming systems (we run a Kafka-compatible broker, Redpanda).Interest in iGaming, fintech, or other high-availability, high-transaction environments.
