What does a DevOps engineer do?

A DevOps engineer builds and runs the infrastructure that software is deployed on: cloud environments, CI/CD pipelines, containers, monitoring and security controls. Good DevOps engineering makes releases fast and repeatable, keeps systems available and keeps cloud costs under control.

DevKit DevOps and cloud engineers work on AWS, Google Cloud and Azure with Docker, Kubernetes and Terraform. Every one of them passes a technical interview with our senior engineers before you see their CV.

When to hire one

  • Setting up CI/CD so your team can release several times a week
  • Moving workloads to the cloud or between cloud providers
  • Containerising applications and running them on Kubernetes
  • Reducing cloud costs and improving monitoring and uptime

What our DevOps engineers do

Typical work our DevOps and cloud engineers take on for clients.

Matched to your budget: which level do you need?

We match the level to the work, so you don't pay senior rates for tasks a mid-level engineer handles well, or put critical work on the wrong hire.

Junior

Well-defined tasks with guidance

Bug fixes, tests and smaller features in an established codebase, with a senior on your team to review their work. The most budget-friendly option.

Mid-level

Independent feature work

Builds features end to end in an existing architecture with little supervision. The best value for most product teams.

Senior

Complex features and ownership

Owns complex parts of the system, makes sound technical decisions and mentors others. Worth it where mistakes are expensive.

Tech lead / Architect

Architecture and team leadership

Designs the system, sets standards and leads other engineers. Ideal for new products, rewrites or a team without technical leadership.

Hiring DevOps engineers: FAQ

How quickly can I hire a DevOps engineer through DevKit?

You usually receive vetted DevOps CVs within 3–5 business days, and the engineer typically starts within 2–3 weeks of the first call.

Which cloud platforms and tools do your DevOps engineers use?

Mainly AWS, Google Cloud and Azure, with Docker and Kubernetes, Terraform for infrastructure as code, CI/CD in GitHub Actions, GitLab CI or Jenkins, and monitoring with Prometheus, Grafana or Datadog.

Do I need a senior DevOps engineer?

Not always. If your infrastructure and pipelines are set and someone senior reviews the changes, a mid-level engineer often delivers the same results for less. For a new cloud architecture, a migration or production systems that must stay available, a senior engineer or tech lead is usually worth it. We'll recommend the right level on a free call.

How much does it cost to hire a DevOps engineer?

Staff augmentation is billed as a monthly rate per engineer, depending on the level and cloud platform. Tell us your budget and we'll match DevOps engineers to it; exact rates come with the first CVs.
