Talent — DevOps & Platform Engineers

Hire DevOps and platform engineers who build systems, not just pipelines.

Zenaide places pre-vetted DevOps engineers, SREs, and platform engineers — from CI/CD pipeline builders to Kubernetes architects — on a contract, contract-to-hire, or permanent basis.

Quick answer

What kind of DevOps engineers does Zenaide place, and how fast?

Zenaide places vetted DevOps engineers, SREs, platform engineers, and build/release engineers — typically presenting first qualified candidates within 5–10 business days. We screen on real infrastructure-as-code experience, observability practices, and on-call seasoning, not generic certifications.

  • DevOps, SRE, Platform Engineering, Build/Release roles
  • Stacks: Kubernetes, Terraform, ArgoCD, Datadog, Prometheus, GitHub Actions
  • Engineers who've owned production on-call, not just CI/CD scripts
  • Contract, contract-to-hire, direct hire models
  • Backfill guarantee within the engagement window

DevOps talent is in high demand and short supply.

Every engineering team needs reliable infrastructure, fast deployments, and observable systems. But experienced DevOps engineers who can design and operate production platforms — not just follow runbooks — are among the hardest technical roles to fill.

Zenaide maintains an active pipeline of DevOps and platform engineering talent across all seniority levels. When you need a DevOps engineer, we don't start from scratch — we start from a curated network.
