DevOps Engineer

The role

You will build and own infrastructure, tooling, and deployment systems for robotic microfactories and software platforms. This involves designing CI/CD pipelines, managing containerized workloads, and administering local networking infrastructure.

What you will do

• Design, build, and maintain CI/CD pipelines for robotics, embedded, and on-premise systems.
• Collaborate with engineers to containerize workloads using Docker/Orbstack.
• Develop automated build, test, and release pipelines including HIL and SIL test stages.
• Establish monitoring, alerting, and observability for robotic systems and on-premise infrastructure.
• Partner with QA and engineering teams to define quality gates in CI/CD pipelines.
• Manage and improve developer tooling, local dev environments, and internal platform services.
• Drive security best practices including secrets management, access control, and vulnerability scanning.
• Administer and maintain local networking infrastructure including switches, VLANs, and firewalls.
• Respond to and resolve infrastructure incidents and conduct post-mortems.
• Contribute to a culture of automation.

Required qualifications

• 5+ years of industry experience in DevOps, platform engineering, or site reliability engineering.
• Proficiency with CI/CD tooling such as GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, or similar.
• Strong experience with containerization using Docker and Docker Compose.
• Hands-on experience with infrastructure-as-code tools (Ansible, Terraform, or equivalent).
• Solid scripting and automation skills in Python and/or Bash.
• Experience administering Linux systems in a production environment.
• Familiarity with monitoring and observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, ELK, or similar).
• Strong networking fundamentals: TCP/IP, VLANs, DNS, VPNs, firewalls, and local area network administration.
• Strong communication skills and a bias toward documentation.
• Ability to work in-person at Molg HQ in Sterling, VA.

Nice to have

• Experience supporting embedded or robotics systems, edge deployments, or industrial environments
