About The Team
The DevOps group is structured in a flat structure of 15 engineers, designating each DevOps engineer to a specific group of RND.
Each DevOps engineer is the DevOps leader for that group. They serve as the point of contact for any project, taking part in the system designs and implementing any needed change.
Each DevOps engineer is also responsible for a “DevOps project” - an infrastructure project aimed to bring upon new capabilities and improvements to our system.
The DevOps group works as a team. They sit together, interact with each other and support each other on a daily basis.
Our infrastructure spans global multi-cloud environments, supporting critical production systems with zero downtime requirements and robust disaster recovery (DR) architecture.
We continuously improve our platform with the latest industry standards around availability, security, and scalability.
