Junior DevOps Engineer

About the role

Snappy, an award-winning gifting company founded in 2015, is looking for a Junior DevOps Engineer to join its infrastructure team in Tel Aviv, on a hybrid basis. You will work on a modern, cloud-native stack across AWS and GCP, focusing on automation, observability and security, and learn from experienced engineers while taking on real production responsibility. You will help scale a multi-cloud, AI-driven platform that powers millions of gifting experiences worldwide.

Key responsibilities

• Support and maintain AWS/GCP infrastructure (networking, IAM, multi-account setups) under the guidance of senior engineers.
• Write and update Terraform code, GitOps flows and CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, ArgoCD).
• Help deploy and operate Kubernetes clusters and serverless applications.
• Build and maintain dashboards and alerts with Prometheus and Grafana, and explore AI-assisted insights.
• Apply security best practices and help with compliance automation.
• Use AI tools to speed up development, spot anomalies and assist with incident response.
• Take part in on-call and incident handling, first as a shadow and then independently.
• Document processes and runbooks.

Required profile

• 1-2 years in a DevOps, SRE, cloud or system administration role; strong relevant projects, a military technology unit background or internships also count.
• Hands-on experience with AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform and CI/CD pipelines, at the level of working on them rather than designing them end to end.
• A basic understanding of AWS core services (EC2, S3, IAM, VPC) and familiarity with AWS Lambda and serverless concepts.
• Curiosity about AI automation in DevOps and a strong desire to learn, take ownership and work well in a team.

Required skills

• Bonus points: Python/Bash scripting (Go is a plus), cloud cost optimization or FinOps exposure, interest in internal developer platforms or platform engineering, cloud certifications such as AWS Cloud Practitioner or Associate.
