Own and evolve Promova's core infrastructure across AWS, Hetzner, and Cloudflare. Design and maintain IaC (Terraform), CI/CD (GitHub Actions, Argo CD), and production Kubernetes/ECS environments. Improve reliability, observability, secrets management, cloud cost visibility, and developer onboarding automation while supporting AI workloads and mentoring colleagues.

At Promova, we're reimagining language education to help today's minds unlock their full potential — building learning that's calm, personal, and genuinely useful for people around the world. Our 150+ teammates share one mission: connect people, bridge cultures, and support lifelong learners everywhere — in every country except aggressor states (yes, even Antarctica).

We pair AI with human creativity so people can speak with confidence and feel at home in a new language. If you like solving real engineering problems, building systems that hold up under load, and shaping the platform learners rely on every day — you'll fit in here.

We're looking for a DevOps Engineer to join our Core Infrastructure team.

Our infrastructure team is the backbone for Promova and several internal products. We build reliable, cost-aware infrastructure that lets engineering teams ship without fighting their tooling. From AI features and Kubernetes clusters to developer tooling and multi-cloud setup, you'll help shape the foundation the rest of the company builds on.

Why This Role

Own the platform. You'll have end-to-end ownership of core infrastructure across AWS, Hetzner, Cloudflare, Kubernetes, and modern platform tooling.

Work on problems that matter. You'll design infrastructure that scales, improve reliability, automate the manual parts, and build the foundation for the AI features learners use every day. We'll be honest: some of this is greenfield, some is untangling what already exists — both are on the table.

Shape where the platform goes. There's real room to standardize infrastructure across products, bring in automation, make developer experience better, and influence architecture decisions across the company.

Build in an AI-first team. AI is part of how we build products and how we work day to day. You'll help our infrastructure support AI workloads — and use AI in your own engineering workflow.

What You'll Work On
  • Own and evolve Promova's core infrastructure across AWS, Hetzner, and Cloudflare.
  • Design, build, and maintain Infrastructure as Code with Terraform.
  • Build and improve CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions, Argo CD and self-hosted runners.
  • Manage and optimize Kubernetes (K3s) and AWS ECS environments.
  • Improve reliability, observability, and incident response with Grafana, Prometheus, Loki, and related tooling.
  • Support the infrastructure behind our AI features and internal platforms.
  • Improve cloud cost visibility and bring spend down where it makes sense.
  • Build provisioning and onboarding automation that makes developers' lives easier.
  • Strengthen platform security through secrets management, access control, and solid infrastructure practices.
  • Collaborate with fellow infrastructure engineers and help shape engineering standards across teams.
What We're Looking For
  • 4+ years as a DevOps, Platform, Infrastructure, or Site Reliability Engineer.
  • Strong hands-on experience with AWS and modern cloud infrastructure.
  • Solid Infrastructure as Code experience, ideally Terraform, Ansible.
  • Experience running Kubernetes in production.
  • Good understanding of CI/CD pipelines, GitHub Actions and Argo CD.
  • Comfortable with Docker and Linux administration.
  • Experience with observability tooling such as Grafana, Prometheus, and Loki.
  • Experience with secrets management such as Vault or AWS Secrets Manager.
  • Strong scripting skills (Bash and/or Python).
  • An ownership mindset, good judgment, and clear communication.
  • Experience mentoring teammates or leading infrastructure work is a plus.
Interview Process
  • Intro call with the Recruiter
  • Technical Interview
  • Bar Raising Interview
  • Offer

Sounds like you? Apply — and help build the platform behind how people learn languages.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
