Senior DevOps Engineer (SRE)

The key responsibilities include designing scalable data pipelines, implementing automated alerting systems, managing disaster recovery plans, and continuously optimizing data pipeline efficiency.

Candidates should have at least 5 years of experience in Data Engineering, proficiency in cloud platforms like GCP or AWS, a strong grasp of data pipeline architectures, and programming skills in Python.

The position offers a hybrid work model, requiring you to work in either São Paulo or Porto Alegre offices a few times a week, fostering collaboration in person while maintaining flexibility.

Poatek provides a structured career development plan, opportunities for learning, and access to cutting-edge technologies to help Senior DevOps Engineers grow their skills and career trajectories.

Senior DevOps Engineers at Poatek work extensively with Google Cloud Platform services, tools for data processing like Dataflow and BigQuery, as well as automation and monitoring systems for data pipelines.

Certainly! As a Senior DevOps Engineer, I have designed and maintained several data pipelines, focusing on scalability and performance optimization. I ensure smooth ETL processes and actively implement improvements based on analysis.

I implement comprehensive monitoring solutions, conduct post-incident reviews, and regularly optimize pipeline processes to minimize downtime and improve reliability over time.

I utilize tools such as Apache Airflow and custom scripts in Python to automate tasks, which significantly reduces operational overhead and allows the team to focus on more strategic initiatives.

I have extensive experience with GCP, particularly using services like BigQuery, Dataflow, and Cloud Storage to build and manage data pipelines that support various business needs.

I approach performance issues by closely monitoring pipeline metrics, utilizing logging to identify bottlenecks, and applying optimization techniques such as partitioning and indexing in the database.

I design disaster recovery plans that include regular backups, automated recovery scripts, and maintaining documentation that ensures quick restoration of services in case of failure.

I actively participate in online communities, attend conferences, and engage with continuous learning platforms. This helps me stay informed about the latest trends and tools in the DevOps landscape.

I prioritize open communication and regular check-ins, leveraging collaboration tools to ensure alignment with team members regardless of their location, fostering a cohesive work environment.

Documentation is crucial; I maintain comprehensive records of systems, processes, and troubleshooting steps, which aids in knowledge transfer and streamlines onboarding for new team members.

Absolutely! Once, I faced a significant latency issue in our data pipelines affecting performance. I conducted a thorough analysis, identified the bottlenecks, and implemented optimizations that improved efficiency by 30%.
