About the Company

ICEYE delivers space-based intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities to governments and allied nations, leveraging world leading synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite technology. The company supports mission critical operations for defense, intelligence, security, and maritime domain awareness, and also serves civil protection and commercial users for natural catastrophe intelligence, insurance, maritime monitoring, and finance. ICEYE is headquartered in Finland and operates globally across Europe, North America, the Middle East, and Asia Pacific, with more than 900 employees united by a shared vision to improve life on Earth by becoming the global source of truth in Earth Observation.

About the Role

As a Senior DevOps Engineer, you will own key parts of the cloud platform that keeps ICEYE's satellites talking to Earth. You will shape how the AWS and Kubernetes environments are designed, secured, and operated across ground stations, test environments, and end user platforms. Your infrastructure decisions will influence both the speed of engineering delivery and the reliability of satellite operations when it matters most.

Responsibilities

  • ● Own key parts of the AWS and Kubernetes platform behind our ground station and connectivity systems, working alongside another senior DevOps engineer and making explicit architecture trade offs between reliability, cost, and delivery speed.
  • ● Drive infrastructure initiatives in your areas from design to delivery, including the dependencies on software teams and ground station vendors.
  • ● Evolve our Terraform and deployment setup with reusable patterns that prevent whole classes of configuration and release issues.
  • ● Design and harden the network between our cloud environments and ground station sites.
  • ● Turn loosely defined operational problems into clear technical plans and working solutions.
  • ● Drive platform incidents to resolution, find the root cause, and turn what you learn into lasting reliability improvements.
  • ● Share your expertise through reviews, pairing, and technical guidance, and help raise the bar on how we build and run infrastructure.

Requirements

  • ● Experience owning a platform or critical infrastructure area end to end, including its architecture decisions and trade offs.
  • ● Extensive hands on experience designing and operating production environments on AWS, including IAM, cost management, and security practices such as least privilege and secrets management.
  • ● Strong cloud networking skills: VPC design, DNS, routing, security groups, and debugging connectivity across cloud and on prem environments.
  • ● Deep Terraform experience, including designing modules and managing infrastructure at scale.
  • ● Experience running Kubernetes in production, including deployments, Helm, and troubleshooting.
  • ● A track record of resolving production incidents and driving lasting reliability improvements.
  • ● Experience designing CI.
