[Hiring] Staff DevOps Engineer @Luxury Presence

Role Description

We're hiring a Staff DevOps Engineer to build the infrastructure that powers our next-generation development pipeline: the environments, quality gates, and internal tooling that enable both engineers and AI agents to ship validated, production-ready code with high confidence.

• Shape and work on pre-production environment infrastructure, automated quality gates, and internal tools.
• Work across EKS, core AWS services, and our CI/CD stack to create infrastructure that proves code is correct.
• Collaborate closely with architects and product teams to reduce the friction of validating work.
• Expand automated gate coverage and build internal tools for operating pipelines at increasing scale and autonomy.

What You’ll Do

• Agent and developer environment infrastructure:
  • Design and operate ephemeral, pre-warmed development environments.
  • Extend our internal CLI (luxp) for quick setup of validated environments.
  • Build environment parity monitoring to ensure dev environments match production behavior.
• Pre-production quality gates:
  • Own infrastructure-level gates that prove a deploy is safe before reaching production.
  • Build and operate automated load testing, performance benchmarking, and security scanning gates.
  • Partner with QA and engineering to expand gate coverage across services.
• Pre-PR validation infrastructure:
  • Build containerized mock services for validating integration code locally.
  • Stand up Playwright-based UI validation in agent and CI loops.
  • Create infrastructure for iterative self-refinement before opening a PR.
• Internal tooling and dashboards:
  • Build review tooling, metrics dashboards, and operational controls for observability.
  • Surface scoring signals, approval rate trends, gate pass rates, and common failure modes.
  • Create the policy layer defining approval requirements per component or task type.

Qualifications

• 6–10+ years in DevOps, Platform Engineering, or SRE roles building and operating production systems at scale.
• Active user of AI development tools (Claude Code, Codex, etc.) in your infrastructure workflow.
• Expertise with Kubernetes (EKS) and AWS (IAM, VPC, ECR, SSM/Secrets Manager, S3, SQS, Lambda, RDS/Aurora).
• Strong IaC experience (Terraform preferred) and GitOps workflows (Argo CD or similar).
• Proven track record building ephemeral environments, developer tooling, or internal platforms.
• Experience with load testing frameworks (k6, Locust, Gatling, or similar).
• Examples of building mock or stub infrastructure for integration testing at scale.
• CI/CD depth (CircleCI, GitHub Actions, or similar) including caching/parallelism and pipeline observability.
• Experience with release strategies (canary/blue-green, automated rollbacks) and progressive delivery.
• Observability fundamentals (Datadog, OpenTelemetry) with the ability to define SLIs/SLOs.
• Excellent cross-team communicator who can translate platform constraints into developer-friendly solutions.

Benefits

• $200,000 - $230,000 a year.
• This range applies to candidates based in the United States and may vary based on experience and location.
