We're partnering with a leading enterprise IT consulting organization to hire a Principal DevOps Engineer to lead large-scale, cloud-native infrastructure initiatives across Australia and New Zealand.
This role sits at the heart of a high-throughput platform environment—routing thousands of customer interactions daily, executing millions of API and monitoring calls, and orchestrating petabytes of data across hybrid and multi-cloud systems. Reliability isn't optional—it's mission-critical.
As Principal DevOps Engineer, you will architect and lead the evolution of modern infrastructure platforms, enabling engineering teams to deploy faster, operate safely, and scale confidently.
Key Responsibilities
* Architect multi-region, multi-cloud infrastructure using Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, CloudFormation, or similar).
* Lead CI/CD strategy and platform modernization, supporting frequent, safe production deployments.
* Drive observability and reliability practices, including SLOs, monitoring strategy, and incident response maturity.
* Mentor and lead a distributed DevOps team across Australia and New Zealand.
* Optimize cost, performance, and scalability across AWS, GCP, and/or Azure.
* Embed security and compliance controls aligned to enterprise and regulatory standards.
What We're Looking For
* For 6+ years' experience in DevOps or Infrastructure Engineering within complex production environments.
* Deep expertise in AWS, GCP, or Azure.
* Strong hands-on Infrastructure-as-Code experience.
* Production Kubernetes and container orchestration experience.
* Demonstrated technical leadership and strong architectural thinking.
* Commitment to operational excellence and continuous improvement.
Why This Opportunity?
* Strategic, high-impact infrastructure leadership.
* Enterprise-scale environment with modern cloud-native stack.
* Distributed, collaborative engineering culture.
* Stability of a global consulting organization with exposure to cutting-edge platform transformation.
