Guidewheel is building a real-time FactoryOps platform that empowers manufacturers to increase productivity and reduce emissions by connecting to machines through power-based sensors. The platform handles terabytes of time-series data and supports large-scale, cloud-native infrastructure.

As a Senior DevOps Engineer, you’ll help scale and secure the cloud infrastructure powering Guidewheel’s platform. You’ll work on automating deployments, improving system reliability, and enabling fast, safe delivery across teams — all while building the foundation for a product used by major manufacturers around the world.

• Design, build, and manage scalable, secure cloud infrastructure with a strong focus on Google Cloud Platform (GCP).

• Use Infrastructure as Code (Terraform preferred) to automate and maintain infrastructure components.

• Develop and optimize CI/CD pipelines to enable smooth, rapid, and reliable deployments.

• Implement and manage Kubernetes, Docker, and Helm for container orchestration at scale.

• Improve system visibility and performance using Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, or GCP-native monitoring tools.

• Automate routine operations and infrastructure tasks using scripting languages like Python, Bash, or Go.

• Ensure cloud infrastructure is secure and compliant, implementing best practices for secrets management, policy as code, and cloud security.

• Champion GitOps and progressive delivery strategies such as blue-green deployments, canary releases, and feature flag rollouts.

• Collaborate closely with development teams to integrate DevOps practices across the full lifecycle.

Must Have

• 7+ years in DevOps, Site Reliability, or Cloud Engineering roles.

• Deep expertise in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) — designing, deploying, and managing infrastructure at scale.

• Strong experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools, especially Terraform.

• Proficiency with Kubernetes, Docker, and Helm for container orchestration.

• Proven ability to build and optimize CI/CD pipelines using tools like GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or ArgoCD.

• Solid scripting and automation skills in Python, Bash, or Go.

• Experience with monitoring and observability tools (e.g. Prometheus, Grafana, Stackdriver, Datadog).

• Knowledge of cloud security best practices, including secrets management and policy-as-code.

• Strong communication skills and ability to work effectively in a remote, fast-paced team.

Nice to Have

• Experience with serverless architectures (e.g. Google Cloud Functions).

• Familiarity with service mesh technologies like Istio or Linkerd.

• Knowledge of compliance frameworks (e.g. SOC 2, HIPAA, ISO 27001) and their impact on cloud infrastructure.

• Exposure to GitOps workflows and progressive deployment strategies (blue-green, canary, feature flags).

• Experience integrating with external systems via APIs.
