Senior Devops Engineer

About Pelico

We are creating the factory of the future where disruptions are avoided, processes synchronized and value captured. Our factory operations management platform enables factory teams to be more agile and resilient in a world where supply chain disruptions occur every 16 minutes. Pelico empowers users to identify bottlenecks, avoid problems, and focus on innovation instead of fire-fighting. Since our foundation in 2019, we’ve partnered with industry leaders across aerospace, industrial equipment, and luxury watchmaking, revolutionizing factory operations in over 15 countries. Esteemed clients include Airbus, Safran, Cartier, Daikin, and Eaton.

Our Team

With a dynamic team of over 180 professionals across the US and France, Pelico is a melting pot of top-tier talent from Tech, Data Science, and Manufacturing domains.
Our collaborative environment fosters innovation and excellence, driving us to solve complex challenges and shape the future of manufacturing.

Our work has been recognized by Safran (Digital Transformation Award) and Microsoft (scale-up of the year).

Engineering turns Product ambition into scalable, reliable solutions that empower on-site operational teams.

We design a platform that handles high volumes, concurrent users, and complex workflows, while remaining modular, maintainable, and future-proof.

About the Role

In your capacity as a Senior DevOps / Site Reliability Engineer, you will be instrumental in architecting the orchestration layer that drives Pelico across all fronts, spanning our global SaaS infrastructure to the most restricted, air-gapped enterprise environments.

Your core mission is ensuring Pelico remains effortless to install, manage, and expand, irrespective of the underlying host. Operating at the crossroads of system architecture, product engineering, and field operations, you will tackle intricate technical hurdles and help define the future of AI-driven industrial infrastructure.

What You’ll Do

• Build deployment platforms that work everywhere. Design and improve Pelico's deployment architecture across Kubernetes, Docker, single VM, air-gapped environments and private cloud using Terraform, Helm and Ansible.

• Create a true one-click deployment experience. Standardize installation, upgrades and operational tooling so enterprise customers can deploy Pelico reliably with minimal manual intervention.

• Improve platform reliability and observability. Build monitoring, diagnostics, self-remediation capabilities and operational runbooks that allow customer IT teams to operate Pelico independently.

• Elevate our DevOps platform. Standardize CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure practices and deployment workflows to improve engineering productivity, security and reliability across the company.

• Support Pelico's enterprise and federal growth. Contribute to initiatives around GovCloud, FedRAMP readiness and deployments for highly regulated aerospace and defense customers.

• Drive AI-powered infrastructure engineering. Explore agentic engineering and AI-assisted workflows to automate infrastructure operations, deployment, diagnostics and security.

About You

• 5+ years of experience in DevOps, Site Reliability Engineering, or Infrastructure Engineering roles in high-growth or production environments.

• Strong experience building and operating cloud and on-premise infrastructure using Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, Helm and Ansible.

• Deep understanding of CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code, observability and modern deployment practices.

• Solid software engineering background, ideally with Java, and an automation-first mindset.

• Comfortable operating in ambiguity—you enjoy solving complex infrastructure challenges without waiting for perfect specifications.

• Strong communication skills with the ability to collaborate across Engineering, Product and customer IT teams.

• You actively embrace AI tools as part of how you work—curious about what's possible and quick to adopt new ways of working smarter and faster.

• Hands-on experience with AI-assisted workflows for coding, infrastructure automation, troubleshooting or engineering productivity.

Nice to have:

• Experience supporting enterprise or industrial environments (manufacturing, aerospace, defense or supply chain).

• Exposure to security, compliance or regulated infrastructure environments (e.g. GovCloud, FedRAMP or air-gapped deployments).

• Experience in customer-facing or forward-deployed engineering roles.
