What’s the position?

We are looking for a Senior Manager, DevOps to join our growing Product & Technology organization. You will work alongside our existing Senior Managers in DevOps, leading a talented team of DevOps engineers across US-based operations. You’ll provide leadership coverage during evenings and weekends, and during standard business hours you’ll drive improvements in how work is planned, coordinated, and executed.

You will oversee the design, scaling, and security of the cloud and platform infrastructure behind our gaming and entertainment platforms, managing highly available, compliant, and automated hybrid-cloud infrastructure in regulated environments. You will partner closely with our data engineering and data infrastructure teams so the foundations their platforms rely on are reliable, secure, and cost-effective. You will also help lead how new platforms and environments are onboarded, from assessing requirements to aligning them with our standards and consolidating redundant workloads.

You’ll set the technical and operational vision for platform onboarding, infrastructure automation, and reliability. You’ll also work with our global teams in Poland to keep the platform running smoothly 24/7.
