Senior DevOps Engineer
Lemon.io
Lemon.io is a marketplace that matches DevOps engineers with vetted startup clients across the US and Europe. If you're looking to step into senior-level work without the overhead of finding your own clients, this is worth exploring. You'll work directly with technical teams, keep your own schedule, and skip the typical job search grind.
Your main responsibility is to architect and maintain infrastructure for client projects. You'll handle deployment pipelines, system reliability, cloud infrastructure, and supporting the engineering teams building on top of what you design. The work is real and the clients expect competence—this isn't entry-level work, but it's structured to let you prove what you can do.
This role fits engineers who've built solid DevOps fundamentals: you understand containerization, CI/CD, cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure), and infrastructure as code. You should be comfortable communicating directly with clients and making technical decisions without hand-holding. A portfolio or GitHub showing your infrastructure work helps.
To apply, submit your profile through CareerJumpShip with links to your work and a brief note about the type of projects you're interested in. Lemon.io will review your experience and match you accordingly.
