Role overview

Benevity is seeking a Senior DevOps Developer to own and operate the cloud infrastructure and developer platforms that support the company’s product teams. Benevity provides technology that enables companies and their employees to take social action through giving, volunteering, grantmaking, and other initiatives, serving many Fortune 100 brands globally.

Key responsibilities

Build and maintain scalable cloud infrastructure across AWS and GCP using Terraform, contributing to reusable infrastructure-as-code libraries rather than creating one-off configurations.
Create and manage shared CI/CD building blocks as a self-service product, gathering feedback from engineers to improve build times, reliability, and deployment safety.
Automate operational work using code and AI-driven workflows for infrastructure-as-code generation, alert triage, and runbook drafting.
Instrument services for observability by building dashboards, meaningful alerts, and SLIs while participating in an inclusive on-call rotation and leading blameless post-mortems.
Operate and tune containerized services, manage resource allocation and scaling, and help guide the upcoming transition to Kubernetes.
Manage infrastructure, provisioning, and backups for managed databases including MySQL, MSSQL, and Postgres to support product teams securely.
Embed cloud-native security, automated compliance checks, and least-privilege IAM practices into the platform so teams inherit them by default, and package zero-downtime deployment patterns as reliable building blocks.

Requirements

Proven track record in DevOps, SRE, or platform engineering supporting production SaaS at meaningful scale.
Strong hands-on AWS experience across compute, networking, and IAM, utilizing Well-Architected principles and solid Terraform skills.
Deep familiarity with CI/CD platforms such as GitHub Actions or Jenkins, specifically building reusable workflows, templates, and shared libraries.
Practical programming ability in Python or similar languages for automation, with established habits of version control and code review.
Experience running containerized production workloads, tuning scaling behavior, and working knowledge of managed database services.
Proficiency with observability tooling to define useful SLIs and alerts, combined with real incident response and post-mortem experience.
Demonstrated use of prompt engineering and AI agents to thoughtfully automate engineering and operational tasks, along with clear and inclusive communication skills.

What makes this role worth considering

Benevity operates with a flexible hybrid work model that values both remote work and in-person collaboration near office locations, trusting teams to make thoughtful decisions about when to gather together. The company prioritizes diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging as core to its culture, supported by active employee resource groups and diverse leadership and technical teams, and candidates with disabilities can request accommodations throughout the hiring process.
