Tech Lead – DevOps & Reliability
Team: Engineering - Development
Location: Thiruvananthapuram
Commitment: Full Time
Workplace Type: onsite

Our product value management platform connects commercial and product teams to optimize decision making, drive process efficiencies, and engage customers with compelling products and experiences. Propel has a proven track record of improving product quality, speeding time to revenue and profit, and improving customer satisfaction.

This is not a traditional infrastructure-focused DevOps role. The engineer will work closely with the development team and be an integral part of the engineering delivery process.
The role combines DevOps engineering, CI/CD automation, application observability, release management, security guardrails, and AI-assisted engineering.
The ideal candidate is a hands-on engineer who enjoys solving operational problems, building automation and engineering tools, improving delivery workflows, and understanding how applications behave in production.
In this role you can expect to:
-
Own and optimize end-to-end CI/CD pipelines, builds, and deployments across application packages and services.
-
Develop automation scripts and internal engineering tools to reduce manual dependencies for developers.
-
Leverage modern AI-assisted engineering tools for troubleshooting, automation, scripting, and operational efficiency.
-
Monitor application health, availability, and performance across production services.
-
Establish robust observability (logs, metrics, alerts, health checks) to detect and resolve production issues early.
-
Plan, coordinate, and execute scheduled production releases, patch releases, and Heroku deployments.
-
Manage release risks, post-release validation, rollback/recovery procedures, and participate in release support.
-
Integrate automated security scanning and vulnerability detection within delivery pipelines.
-
Apply OWASP standards and establish security guardrails to ensure safe, compliant software releases.
To be successful in this role you bring:
-
8–10 years of DevOps, CI/CD, and software delivery experience in AWS cloud environments.
-
Strong background in build, deployment, release automation, and production application support.
-
Proven troubleshooting skills with the ability to debug backend code and resolve complex technical issues.
-
Expertise in application logging, monitoring, and observability.
-
Proficiency in CI/CD pipeline security, vulnerability scanning, and applying OWASP standards.
-
Strong scripting and automation capabilities to build tooling, workflows, and process improvements.
-
Familiarity with Git workflows and modern AI-assisted engineering tools.
-
Hands-on experience with OAuth 2.0 or modern authentication/authorization mechanisms.
-
Strong ownership, cross-functional collaboration, and communication skills.
-
Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure, containerization (Docker, Kubernetes/EKS), and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform).
-
Strong background in application observability, performance monitoring, backend engineering (Python, Java, Node.js), and database troubleshooting.
-
Familiarity with Agile/Scrum practices, release management, AWS certification, and building/deploying AI-assisted workflows.
Not required, but nice to have experience
