Senior Devops/Backend Engineer (Contract)

DevOps Engineers with deep expertise across modern infrastructure technologies. Ideal candidates will have strong, hands-on experience with Kubernetes for container orchestration, Terraform for infrastructure as code, and CI/CD pipelines (using tools such as GitLab CI, Jenkins, or GitHub Actions) to automate deployment workflows. Experience setting up and managing environments in isolated or offline conditions is highly valued, as the project requires secure, standalone deployments without reliance on cloud connectivity.

Backend Software Engineers with extensive experience with backend technologies such as Go, Python, or Java, as well as frameworks and tools like Docker, gRPC, and Kubernetes-native services for building scalable, fault-tolerant backend systems. Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and experience integrating machine learning pipelines or large-scale data processing systems is a strong plus. While some exposure to frontend technologies can be beneficial.
