An impressive mission requires an equally impressive Senior Dev Ops Specialist

As a Senior Dev Ops Specialist, you will join VIA’s Dev Ops team to help drive the deployment, security, and reliability of our Web3 data and identity protection solutions. You won’t wait to be handed a problem. You’ll identify what matters, bring a clear point of view on how to address it, and lead work through to completion in close partnership with the rest of the Dev Ops team.

You will take ownership of key components of VIA’s infrastructure while shaping the broader technical direction alongside your teammates, leveraging AI-driven automation and infrastructure-as-code to replace manual processes and ensure our platform meets rigorous security requirements.

In this role, you will:

• Help shape and operate infrastructure and deployment systems
  • Contribute to the design, build, and maintenance of the cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and deployment tooling that engineering teams rely on every day
• Drive reliability and observability
  • Implement monitoring, alerting, and incident response practices that keep systems healthy and surface issues before customers feel them
• Champion security and compliance
  • Partner with security and compliance teammates to ensure infrastructure aligns with VIA's security obligations (e.g., CJIS, CMMC, and SOC

• Partner across the engineering organization
  • Work closely with engineering leadership, Client Delivery Leads, and product teams to ensure infrastructure work is properly prioritized and accounted for during project planning and resource allocation
• Partner with the team to identify and implement AI tools and agents
  • Identify and implement AI tools and agents to eliminate manual bottlenecks across the Dev Ops lifecycle, including automated remediation, log anomaly detection, infrastructure-as-code generation and review, and compliance evidence collection

What you will bring to this role:

• Bachelor’s or master’s degree in computer science, engineering, information systems, or a related degree
• 5+ years of experience in a Dev Ops, SRE, or infrastructure engineering role, with demonstrated success in a high-growth technical environment
• Deep technical understanding of IT infrastructure integration, Unix/Linux, (e.g., DNS, storage systems, firewalls, etc.), TCP/UDP/IP behavior, and application data flows between systems - a must have
• High proficiency in application deployment (e.g., Kubernetes, IaC e.g. Terraform, Docker), configuration and monitoring (e.g., System logs, Kibana, Grafana, etc.)
• In-depth experience with AWS required; experience with Azure or GCP a bonus
• Experience managing network infrastructure, protocols, troubleshooting, and security (e.g., firewalls, security groups, OS/container hardening)
• Experience adhering to the standards of compliance frameworks (e.g. CJIS, CMMC, SOC2)
• Proficiency in Python and shell script languages
• Proven ability to…
