At Sage, we're investing heavily in the future of cloud operations, platform engineering and AI-enabled services. We're looking for a Cloud Operations Engineer to join a growing team responsible for the reliability, scalability and operational excellence of several cloud-hosted SaaS products, including innovative technologies supporting AI-powered onboarding, automation and data migration capabilities.
This is an opportunity to work at the forefront of cloud operations, supporting modern AWS-based platforms, containerised workloads and infrastructure-as-code practices that help thousands of customers rely on Sage solutions every day.
You'll be part of a collaborative global team that works across multiple products and technologies rather than being confined to a single platform. If you're passionate about cloud engineering, automation and building resilient systems at scale, we'd love to hear from you.
*** Please note: This is a hybrid role requiring 3 days per week in our Atlanta office ***
What you'll be doing
• Supporting and operating mission-critical SaaS platforms hosted primarily in AWS • Maintaining highly available, secure and scalable cloud environments • Managing and improving Kubernetes-based infrastructure and containerised workloads • Building, enhancing and maintaining Infrastructure as Code using Terraform and Terragrunt • Improving observability, monitoring and alerting across cloud services • Supporting incident management, troubleshooting and root cause analysis activities • Contributing to CI/CD pipelines and deployment automation through GitOps practices • Collaborating with engineering teams to improve platform resilience, performance and operational efficiency • Creating automation, tooling and runbooks that enable faster issue resolution and reduce operational overhead • Helping operationalise new products and services introduced through recent innovation and acquisition activity
What we're looking for
Essential
• Hands-on experience supporting production cloud environments in AWS • Strong experience with Kubernetes and containerised infrastructure • Proven experience with Infrastructure as Code, particularly Terraform • Experience working with CI/CD pipelines, Git-based workflows and deployment automation • Scripting experience using Python, Bash, PowerShell or similar technologies • Strong understanding of cloud networking, systems administration and production operations • Experience responding to incidents and performing root cause analysis within distributed systems • Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment
Nice to have
• Experience with Microsoft Azure • Experience using Terragrunt • Knowledge of GitOps methodologies • Experience with ArgoCD • Experience working within SaaS or software product organisations • Familiarity with Jira and Agile delivery environments
Why join this team?
This team supports a portfolio of cloud-hosted products that play an important role in Sage's growing cloud ecosystem. Rather than focusing on a single application, you'll collaborate across multiple products, teams and technologies, giving you broad exposure to modern cloud engineering challenges and opportunities.
You'll join a supportive global team of experienced cloud engineers who collaborate closely across multiple regions. The team places a strong emphasis on knowledge sharing, automation and sustainable operational practices, allowing engineers to focus on solving meaningful technical challenges rather than constant firefighting.
As Sage continues to invest in AI-powered experiences, platform modernisation and cloud innovation, you'll have the opportunity to help shape how new products and services are operated at scale.
Benefits? We have plenty.
• Competitive annual bonuses • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage • 401(k) retirement match (100% matching up to 4%) • 32 days paid time off (22 personal days & 10 national holidays) • 18 weeks of paid parental leave (offered 1 year after the start date) • Work Away Program: Opportunity to work & play for 10 weeks from another country (Sage-approved list) • Sage Foundation: 5 days paid yearly to volunteer • $5,250 tuition reimbursement per calendar year starting 6 months after the hire date • Sage Wellness Rewards Program ($600 wellness credit and $360 fitness reimbursement annually)
