Bare Metal DevOps EngineerMontreal, QC (Onsite) | Full-TimeDeOS is a next-generation interactive edge platform enabling instant, high-performance gaming on any device. Powered by breakthrough streaming technology and a global edge network, removes the need for consoles, high-end PCs, or downloads—just click and play.We're building infrastructure that shouldn't be possible—real-time, globally distributed, and insanely performant.This isn't cloud-first infrastructure. This is bare metal engineering at scaleWhy This Role Is DifferentYou'll work directly with physical infrastructure, not abstracted cloud services.Every optimization matters—from BIOS settings to kernel tuning and network latency.You'll build and automate infrastructure powering millions of low-latency gaming sessions.Small team, massive ownership—your work has immediate impact on productioWhat Sets You ApartYou understand servers as deeply as software.You enjoy automating everything and eliminating manual operations.You think about reliability, performance, and scalability from day one.You're comfortable debugging issues across hardware, operating systems, networking, and applications.You thrive in fast-moving environments where complex technical challenges are solved collaborativeWhat You'lll DoDeploy, configure, and maintain bare metal servers across distributed edge locations.Build automation for provisioning, configuration management, and lifecycle management.Optimize Linux systems for maximum performance and low latency.Design and maintain CI/CD pipelines supporting infrastructure and application deployments.Manage Kubernetes clusters running directly on physical hardware.Implement infrastructure as code using up-to-date automation frameworks.Monitor system health, capacity,
and performance while proactively resolving bottlenecks.Collaborate with software engineers to ensure seamless deployment and operation of platform services.Improve observability through logging, metrics, alerting, and tracing.Participate in incident response and continuously improve platform reliabilWhat YouBringStrong experience administering Linux servers in production environments.Hands-on experience managing bare metal infrastructure rather than exclusively public cloud environments.Experience with Kubernetes and containerized workloads.Strong scripting skills using Bash, Python, or Go.Experience with Infrastructure as Code tools such as Terraform or Ansible.Solid understanding of networking fundamentals, including TCP/IP, routing, DNS, and load balancing.Familiarity with monitoring and observability tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, and Alertmanager.Experience with Git-based workflows and CI/CD systems.Strong troubleshooting skills spanning hardware, operating systems, networking, and distributed applications.Passion for performance optimization and systems engineeBonusPointsExperience operating large-scale edge or CDN infrastructure.Knowledge of kernel tuning and Linux performance profiling.Experience with PXE booting, automated provisioning, or out-of-band management technologies.Familiarity with high-performance networking and low-latency systems.Experience supporting gaming, streaming, or real-time platforms.Contributions to open-source infrastructure or DevOps proWhy Join DeOSBuild technology that redefines how games are delivered worldwide.Work with an exceptionally technical, execution-focused team.Own meaningful infrastructure challenges from day one.Shape the foundation of a globally distributed edge platform designed for speed at everylayer. #J-18808-Ljbffr
