Job Description

The DevOps Engineer is responsible for the design, development, and lifecycle management of automation and integration solutions across Alarm.com's cloud infrastructure and application platforms.

Key Responsibilities

Partner with Software Engineering to architect and design infrastructure solutions — in the cloud or on-premises — for new and existing applications and features.
Design and develop tools and frameworks that enable continuous integration and automated infrastructure management across all layers of the cloud stack, including servers, storage, networking, operating systems, management infrastructure, applications, monitoring, and alerting.
Implement and maintain infrastructure-as-code solutions using Terraform, Ansible/AWX, and Puppet to provision and manage Azure and on-premises infrastructure — including virtual machines, App Services, Service Bus, Storage Accounts, networking (NSGs, load balancers), Key Vault, ACR, and Kubernetes clusters —at scale.
Own the observability onboarding process for new applications — implementing metrics collection via Telegraf, OpenTelemetry, or native cloud sources, routing metrics through Prometheus into Grafana, and managing Grafana alerting and PagerDuty integrations via Terraform.
Participate in on-call rotations and incident response to maintain the stability and performance of production services.
Develop a deep understanding of the architecture and operational characteristics of the Alarm.com cloud platform and implement solutions that improve system reliability, performance, and predictability.
Evaluate, architect, and implement infrastructure solutions and migrate on-premises workloads to hyperscaler environments including AWS and Azure.
Troubleshoot infrastructure and application issues across development, staging, and production environments.
Collaborate with Cloud Engineering, Software Engineering, and Quality Engineering teams to improve operational efficiency and system observability.
Develop and maintain operational runbooks and documentation to support platform health and stability.
Support application deployments and improvements across the full software development lifecycle.
Enable automation and operational improvements using scripting languages and modern DevOps tooling.
Other duties as assigned.

Experience with configuration management and infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform, Ansible/AWX, and Puppet.
Experience with scripting or programming languages such as Bash, Python, Go, C#, and PowerShell.
Experience supporting operational processes including multi-tiered escalation and on-call procedures.
