Junior Dev Ops Engineer
About The Position
BlueVoyant is seeking a Junior DevOps Engineer to join our Infrastructure Engineering team, responsible for building, operating, and scaling our multi‑cloud, multi‑region SaaS platform. In this role, you’ll support the systems and infrastructure that enable our services—from development through production—while growing your skills across the stack. You’ll gain hands‑on experience with cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, observability tooling, Kubernetes, and Software Engineering. This role is ideal for someone early in their career who brings strong fundamentals, curiosity, and a willingness to learn. You’ll work alongside engineers from both software and systems backgrounds, receiving training, mentorship, and support as you develop. You are an early‑career engineer with a passion for automation, infrastructure, and improving operational reliability. You enjoy solving technical problems, learning new tools, and working collaboratively with experienced engineers. You ask good questions, take initiative, and thrive in environments where you can learn by doing. You don’t need to be an expert in everything; curiosity, strong fundamentals, and willingness to learn are most important. You are comfortable working across multiple domains—cloud services, CI/CD, container technologies, performance monitoring, and basic software engineering. You bring a customer‑minded approach, strong fundamentals, and a desire to contribute to reliable, scalable systems.
