DevOps Engineer

Location : Baku, Azerbaijan

Type : Full-time

Company : DRL LLC

At eiGroup, we believe ideas can change industries - but only if they are nurtured with

structure, science, and courage.

We’re an R&D and Innovation Venture Studio that transforms human

ingenuity into technological value that scales.

Our ecosystem brings together researchers, engineers, and creators who turn complex

challenges into scalable products - from subsurface imaging to AI-driven analytics, from remote sensing to digital

transformation.

Our ventures are built in-house, born from research, and grown into independent

companies.

Together, we’re shaping how innovation takes root in this region - and how it reaches the

world.

What You'll Do

Own CI/CD across Azure Pipelines and GitLab CI: YAML pipelines, multi-stage builds,

environment promotion, approvals, artifact and container publishing, shared templates so each team isn't reinventing

its own build

Provision and run our Kubernetes clusters, including

standing up new ones from scratch with Rancher: workloads, ingress, secrets, resource limits, autoscaling, rollout

and rollback strategy, Helm charts, version upgrades and etcd backups

Own

our Azure estate — App Services, compute, networking, storage, Key Vault, managed identities — alongside self-hosted

services running on our own infrastructure, including cost hygiene and right-sizing

Introduce Infrastructure as Code (Terraform or Bicep) from a largely manual starting point:

reusable modules, state management, real parity between environments

Build and maintain monitoring and alerting: metrics collection, Grafana dashboards the teams

actually use, centralised logging, and alerts that fire on real problems rather than noise

Own production: releases, incident response, root cause, backup and restore drills, and an

on-call rotation designed to stay quiet

Manage secrets and access

properly (Key Vault, managed identities, Entra ID, least-privilege RBAC) and put secret, dependency and image

scanning into the pipelines

Work with the Project Managers across our

ventures: take in infrastructure requests, prioritise them honestly against each other, and propose the cheaper

version when there is one

Plan and report your work in Azure DevOps —

break requests into tasks, create your own where the work originates with you, keep status current, and raise

blockers early enough that PMs can plan around them

What You Bring

3+ years in DevOps, SRE or platform engineering, with real production

ownership

Strong hands-on Linux — comfortable in the shell, able to debug

a failing service without a UI

Proven CI/CD experience with Azure

Pipelines, GitLab CI or equivalent, including pipelines other teams depend on

Kubernetes in production: deployments, services, ingress, config and secrets, RBAC,

autoscaling — and the ability to diagnose why a pod won't start or a rollout is stuck. Helm for packaging. You have

built a cluster from scratch, not only deployed into one

Solid Docker

fundamentals: multi-stage builds, image size, base image hygiene

Microsoft Azure: compute, networking, storage, Key Vault, managed identities, Entra ID, Azure

Monitor

Infrastructure as Code with Terraform or Bicep — nice to

have

Scripting in Bash plus Python or PowerShell — enough to automate a

task properly instead of documenting a manual one

Networking

fundamentals: DNS, TLS and certificates, reverse proxies, load balancing, VNets, subnets, NSGs, firewall

rules

Databases from the operations side: backups and tested restores,

connection pooling, working with developers on a slow query

Sound

security instincts — you notice the exposed secret, the public endpoint, the permission nobody

needed

Able to serve multiple teams with competing requests, work

independently, estimate credibly and flag risk early

Good written and

verbal communication in English

Our benefits include:

Medical insurance (family coverage)

Flexible working hours

Wellness

program

Childcare support

Company-provided lunch
