DevOps, Accelerated with AI
AI-Powered Incident Detection
AI monitors logs, metrics, and traces to detect anomalies before they become outages. Pattern recognition identifies root causes faster than human operators scrolling through dashboards.
Infrastructure Drift Detection
AI continuously compares your running infrastructure against its declared state, catching configuration changes that could cause security vulnerabilities or outages.
Automated Pipeline Optimization
AI analyzes build and deployment pipelines, identifying bottlenecks, flaky tests, and inefficient steps that slow your team's delivery velocity.
Cost-Aware Scaling
AI recommends scaling strategies based on traffic patterns and resource usage, balancing performance requirements against cloud spending.
What Our DevOps Developers Build
CI/CD Pipeline Design
Automated build, test, and deployment pipelines with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or Jenkins. Branch strategies, environment promotion, and rollback procedures.
Container Orchestration
Docker containerization and Kubernetes deployment. Service discovery, health checks, rolling updates, and resource management for microservices.
Infrastructure as Code
Terraform and CloudFormation for version-controlled, peer-reviewed infrastructure. Reproducible environments from development to production.
Monitoring & Observability
Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, or CloudWatch monitoring with alerting, dashboards, and SLA tracking. Distributed tracing for microservices.
Security & Compliance
Container scanning, secret management, network policies, and compliance automation. SOC 2, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS readiness for regulated environments.
Cloud Migration & Optimization
Migrate workloads between clouds or from on-premise. Cost optimization, architecture modernization, and performance tuning for existing deployments.
VETTING PIPELINE
How engineers earn a spot on our team
Every engineer goes through the same four-stage funnel. Most do not make it past stage two.
30,000+
Applications received each year
Around 15 open roles at any time, each receiving roughly 200 applications per month through LinkedIn, AngelList, employee referrals, and outbound headhunting across India. India produces 1.5 million CS graduates a year, so sourcing is not the moat. Filtering is. Most applications are auto-filtered for stack relevance, years of experience, English, and time-zone overlap before any human reviews them.
5%
Pass live coding + system design
Two-stage technical interview: a 90-minute live coding exercise tailored to the candidate's primary stack, then a system-design discussion grounded in real production scenarios.
2%
Pass project deep-dive + background verification
We ask candidates to walk through a recent production project: architecture decisions, what they would change in hindsight. We also run a background verification check through a third-party BGV agency to confirm prior employment, education, and identity.
