Numerator is seeking a skilled DevOps Kubernetes Engineer to help build, scale, and modernize the infrastructure behind both our established products and new greenfield initiatives. You’ll work across a diverse technical landscape - from gamified mobile apps to large-scale web crawling and deep learning systems - that power our consumer insights platform. In this role, you’ll make an immediate impact by driving our migration from on-prem to cloud, improving reliability and performance, and shaping how new projects are delivered at scale. This is a fast-paced, high-visibility opportunity with strong growth potential. The ideal candidate is hands-on with infrastructure-as-code, experienced with Kubernetes in major cloud environments, and comfortable contributing to both operational architecture and broader technology initiatives across the Numerator portfolio.

Participate in code reviews, design work and troubleshooting across business functions, multiple teams and product groups to help communicate, document and address infrastructure issues.
Look for innovative ways to improve observability, monitoring of large scale systems over a variety of technologies across the Numerator organization.
Participate in the creation of training material, helping teams embrace a culture of DevOps with self-healing and self-service ecosystems. This includes discovery, testing and integration of third party solutions in product roadmaps.
Build internal-facing tools that demonstrate performance and operational effectiveness to improve training, adoption and understanding of common Software Development and DevOps challenges.
Drive the team forward by helping refine and plan out tasks and epics during regular sprint planning.
Expose the team and wider application teams to new tools and technologies when possible and to drive PoCs with third party vendors during the vendor selection process.

Bachelor’s degree or higher in Computer Science, Mathematics, Data Security, or Information Security.
4+ years of experience in cloud-based systems across DevOps, IT, Networking, or Software Engineering.
Strong understanding of software architecture, reliability, availability, and performance engineering.
Hands-on knowledge of networking, operating systems, databases, packaging/build systems, and observability tools (Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, Sentry, Loki, Tempo, Mimir).
Skilled in deploying services with advanced networking, IAM role-based access, and Kubernetes within AWS, Azure, or GCP.
Proficient in Python, Golang, shell scripting, and rapid prototyping with third-party tools.
Comfortable using AI coding tools (e.g., Copilot) and pair-programming workflows.
Experienced in Agile methodologies and capable of managing multiple projects while proactively identifying technical risks.
Ability to quickly learn, deploy, and manage Kubernetes-based applications and third-party services using Terraform and Ansible.
Strong documentation skills for both technical and non-technical audiences.

An inclusive and collaborative company culture - we work in an open environment while working together to get things done, and adapt to the changing needs as they come.
An opportunity to have an impact in a technologically data-driven company.
Ownership over platforms and environments in an industry-leading product.
Market competitive total compensation package.
Volunteer time off and charitable donation matching.
Strong support for career growth, including mentorship programs, leadership training, access to conferences and employee resources groups.
Regular hackathons to build your own projects and Engineering Lunch and Learns.
Great benefits package including health/vision/dental, flexible PTO, flexible schedule, RRSPs matching, travel reimbursement and more.
An opportunity to work in a fast moving growth company.
