What are the responsibilities and job description for the DevOps Kubernetes Engineer position at Numerator Career Center?

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.

What You’ll Do: 

  • 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.
