Don’t miss the rocket ship—join Prophecy and build the next data revolution.

This is a high-impact opportunity to be a senior DevOps engineer in a fast-growing startup, based in Prophecy’s India engineering center. You will own and evolve the foundations that keep our engineering org fast, secure, and cost-efficient at scale — spanning cloud cost management, security DevOps, and CI/CD and engineering operations. Cloud cost (FinOps)

Own and evolve our cloud cost optimization program across AWS, Azure, GCP, Databricks, Snowflake and Bigquery building on the programmatic monitoring and controls

Analyze billing, asset-inventory, and utilization data across departments to identify wasteful spend and provide actionable insights to optimize it.

Build and maintain automation for infrastructure provisioning, scaling, and cost control.

Security DevOps

Partner with engineering and security to drive our security-hardening program across workstreams such as identity & access governance, secrets & credential lifecycle, cloud access, and CI/CD hardening.

Implement and automate guardrails: secrets management, least-privilege access, credential rotation, and policy-as-code.

Improve monitoring, detection, and audit logging across our cloud, source control, and third-party platforms.

Track hardening items to closure and help establish durable processes so the posture holds over time.

Engineering-ops automation

Drive CI/CD stability across our core repos — keeping master builds green, reducing flaky tests, and enforcing healthy merge processes (e.g. controlled force-merge policies with clear custodianship and follow-up).

Develop internal tools and automation to improve developer productivity (CI/CD pipelines, observability, local dev environments, release tooling, etc.).

Stay current with modern DevOps, FinOps, security, and developer-productivity tooling to continuously improve our processes.

5–10 years of overall systems/infrastructure engineering experience, including hands-on work building and operating infrastructure platform-as-a-service capabilities.

• Strong hands-on knowledge of cloud services (compute, storage, networking, databases, containers) across at least one major cloud; familiarity with AWS, Azure, and GCP is a plus.
• Proven experience with cloud cost optimization (FinOps) — measuring, monitoring, and driving down spend.
• Solid grounding in security DevOps — secrets management, IAM/least-privilege, credential lifecycle, and securing CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure.
• Hands-on experience driving CI/CD stability and reliability (build health, flaky-test management, pipeline tooling) with systems like GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI, etc.
• Proficiency in scripting and automation (Go, Python, Bash/Shell, or similar).
• Experience with Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, CloudFormation, Pulumi, etc.).
• Experience with monitoring, logging, and observability tools (Datadog, Prometheus, ELK, etc.).
• Background working in modern tech companies/startups focused on scaling, security, and developer productivity.
• Strong problem-solving skills, with the ability to balance cost, security, performance, and developer needs.
• B Tech or above degree in CS or equivalent.
