At Semperis, our mission is to be a Force for Good. Starting with being a great place to work. We believe that when people feel valued, supported, and empowered, they do their best work. That’s why we focus on creating an employee experience rooted in purpose, growth, and balance.

Head of DevOps

We're seeking a Head of DevOps to lead our DevOps function, managing a mix of team leads and individual contributors across a global organization. This is a senior leadership role for someone who sets technical strategy and organizational direction, while remaining sharp enough technically to dive into a hard problem, challenge an architecture decision, or mentor an engineer through a tough debugging session when it counts.

You'll own the DevOps roadmap and org structure, and be the escalation point for both people challenges and the toughest technical ones.

What You Will Be Doing

Organizational Leadership

- Manage a team of managers and senior ICs, setting the org structure and growth plan for the DevOps function as it scales

- Own hiring, performance management, and career development for both direct reports and, through them, the broader team

- Coach team leads on how to manage their own people and technical decisions, rather than managing every engineer directly

- Decide when to delegate ownership to a lead versus when to step in personally

Strategy & Technical Direction

- Own the DevOps roadmap, translating business and product priorities into infrastructure and delivery capabilities

- Set technical direction for cloud architecture, CI/CD, and platform reliability across Azure, Kubernetes (AKS), Istio, and GitOps workflows

- Make tooling, budget, and build-vs-buy decisions for the function

- Define KPIs, SLAs, and error budgets that connect infrastructure performance to business outcomes

Deep Technical Involvement

- Get personally involved in the hardest technical challenges — critical incidents, contentious architecture decisions, persistent systemic issues — where your experience changes the outcome

- Review code, infrastructure, and architecture decisions at a level of detail that gives real feedback, not rubber-stamp approval

- Lead root-cause analysis on major incidents and drive long-term fixes

- Mentor senior engineers and team leads directly on technical problem-solving, not just process

Leading Change

- Identify friction in current workflows and lead the initiatives to resolve it, from diagnosis through adoption

- Drive adoption of practices like GitOps maturity, Zero Trust, and observability standards across the org

- Build change management capability into your leads so improvements scale without your constant involvement

Cross-Functional Collaboration

- Serve as the primary bridge between DevOps and Engineering, Security, IT, and Product leadership

- Partner with Security and Compliance on Zero Trust, PIM/RBAC, and WAF strategy and implementation

- Represent DevOps in executive and cross-functional planning, backed by real technical credibility

- Broker tradeoffs between teams with competing priorities

Required Qualifications

- 8+ years of DevOps/SRE experience in SaaS or cloud-native environments

- 4+ years in a senior leadership role, including direct experience managing managers or team leads, not just ICs

- Strong hands-on background with Terraform/Terragrunt, Kubernetes (AKS), Helm, and Istio, with enough depth to review and challenge technical decisions directly

- Track record of leading organizational change initiatives from strategic framing through execution

- Proven ability to mentor senior engineers and develop other managers

- Strong cross-functional collaboration skills, particularly with Security and Product leadership

- Experience with Zero Trust architecture, PIM/RBAC, and secure network configuration in Azure

Preferred Qualifications

- Experience scaling a DevOps or platform function through a management layer (i.e., building out team leads under you)

- Experience with Kafka, event-driven systems, and distributed systems architecture

- Background in identity, security, or compliance-heavy SaaS products

- Experience presenting technical strategy to executive audiences

- History of building internal platforms or tools adopted by other engineering teams

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
