A fully remote DevOps/backend engineering role focused on designing, operating, and improving large-scale distributed infrastructure — including API gateways, load balancers, CI/CD pipelines, and high-throughput data pipelines using tools like Kafka and ClickHouse. The position spans backend service development, container orchestration with Kubernetes, database management, and observability. It suits an engineer with 5+ years of experience who can work autonomously across distributed teams on a security-oriented product.

Why we read it this way (6)
The role is titled 'DevOps Engineer' but the accountabilities and requirements describe substantial backend software development (designing/building services, writing tests, feature development) alongside infrastructure work — the primary day-to-day work leans toward building and shipping software, hence Software Developers (15-1252) over Network/Systems Admins (15-1244).
The high-throughput data pipeline requirement lists Apache Kafka, ClickHouse, and RabbitMQ as interchangeable examples ('such as … or similar'); all three are captured under one skill with alternatives.
The posting requires 'strong proficiency in at least one high-level programming language' but names no specific language — no skill was emitted for this as it names no concrete technology.
Django is listed explicitly as 'a plus' (preferred).
Configuration management tools (Puppet, Ansible, Salt) are listed as 'an advantage' (preferred), captured as one interchangeable skill.
No compensation figures are provided. The role is fully remote and open to candidates based anywhere worldwide, though the posting specifies the candidate should be 'based in United States'; no specific metro or state is given.
