Hi there! Since you are already intrigued by the job title, we suggest you keep reading.

We are Lab08 – a Bulgarian-Danish software company that designs and builds exciting, innovative products together with our customers. We develop effective and functional platforms based on long-term partnerships and deep collaboration.

We’re looking for a DevOps Engineer with a passion for building, automating, and optimizing complex K8S infrastructures in AWS. You’ll join a technically strong team that lives and breathes automation, scalability, and reliability, working with the edge technologies in GitOps.

If that sounds like you — keep reading!

What you’ll work with:

• AWS Cloud Infrastructure – designing, deploying, and maintaining complex, multi-account environments (EKS, Lambda, RDS, Route53, ALB, S3, IAM, and beyond).
• Infrastructure as Code – Terraform (and Helm) as your daily tools of choice for managing and versioning infrastructure.
• Containerization & Orchestration – deploying and maintaining workloads with Helm charts, K8s manifests, and automation pipelines.
• Databases – administering and tuning MySQL, PostgreSQL, and MongoDB clusters for performance and reliability.
• Monitoring & Observability – building dashboards and alerts with Grafana and Prometheus, improving system visibility.
• Security & Compliance – practical experience with IDS/IPS systems, security groups, and proactive monitoring of infrastructure integrity.
• GitOps – managing application delivery pipelines using ArgoCD and following modern GitOps principles.
• Serverless – developing and maintaining Lambda functions in Python and Node.js, integrating with event-driven architectures.
• Application Support – troubleshooting and optimizing deployment flows for PHP and Node.js applications in production environments.

What we’re looking for:

• 2+ years of hands-on DevOps or Cloud Engineering experience.
• Good knowledge of AWS services, networking, IAM, and cost optimization.
• Terraform, Helm, and K8s experience (multi-environment setups, modular design, and CI/CD integration).
• Proven ability to automate, script, and debug infrastructure (Python, Bash, or Node.js).

Nice to have:

• Experience working in high-availability environments and handling production incidents gracefully.
• Experience integrating security tools or running vulnerability scans (Wazuh, Prowler, Suricata, Falco, etc.).
• Some experience with GitOps, CI/CD best practices, and deployment workflows (ArgoCD, GitHub Actions, Bitbucket Pipelines, etc.).

Why you’ll love it here:

You’ll have the freedom to shape how infrastructure is built and maintained, own the full lifecycle from idea to production, and work with a team that values curiosity, automation, and constant improvement.

Of course, working for Lab08 comes with some additional perks like:

• Competitive pay and flexible working hours
• Hybrid work setup (office in the heart of Sofia)
• Additional health insurance, Multisport, and team events
• Parking spot/Public transport card
• Opportunities for professional growth and learning
