Job Description

Insight Global is looking to add a DevOps Engineer to our client's team in Latin America. This person will support and scale production infrastructure as the company expands its product offerings across the Americas. This role sits on a small LATAM-based DevOps team (one peer and a manager) and serves as the DevOps point person for a specific development pod. You’ll join sprint planning, partner closely with application engineers, and help ensure reliable delivery and infrastructure support.
The environment runs multiple applications on AWS with a strong emphasis on Kubernetes (EKS). Current clusters span -50 nodes and support several large applications, with plans for continued growth and architectural evolution. Most work focuses on operating, supporting, and improving these Kubernetes environments using infrastructure-as-code.
Terraform is core to the role. The team is moving toward a fully code-driven DevOps model, and this engineer will help push and maintain that standard. On-call responsibility is light (about one week per month), with most after-hours issues handled first by offshore teams and escalated only if needed. Working hours are flexible, with occasional early meetings.

We are a company committed to creating diverse and inclusive environments where people can bring their full, authentic selves to work every day. We are an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer that believes everyone matters. Qualified candidates will receive consideration for employment regardless of their race, color, ethnicity, religion, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, marital status, national origin, ancestry, genetic factors, age, disability, protected veteran status, military or uniformed service member status, or any other status or characteristic protected by applicable laws, regulations, and ordinances. If you need assistance and/or a reasonable accommodation due to a disability during the application or recruiting process, please send a request to HR@insightglobal.com.To learn more about how we collect, keep, and process your private information, please review Insight Global's Workforce Privacy Policy: https://insightglobal.com/workforce-privacy-policy/.
