Technical Consultant - DevOps Engineering

OUR STORY

Let’s be honest: there are lots of people out there doing what we do. We’re just not convinced they’re doing it right. Businesses are hungry for innovation and opportunity, but not at the cost of their independence. At Ollion, we’ve connected companies and capabilities around the world to help ambitious organizations make the most of their transformation and leave the status quo in the dust.

WORKING AT OLLION

Innovation is risky. It demands bold steps and big questions, but that’s the price of making change. We’ve got our head in the cloud and two feet on the ground, channeling tech’s endless potential towards a single goal: making a world of difference. And we’re building a global team to do just that— a team capable of making game-changing breakthroughs without ever losing sight of the people it will impact. This is more than consulting.

WORKING WITH OLLION (our clients’ experiences)

Progress matters more than process.

You will be responsible for creating secure, least-privilege IAM policies using Policy Sentry API, integrating with Terraform Platform APIs, and deploying automation scripts and APIs on EKS or EC2. We value proactive problem-solvers who can present solutions, readily clarify requirements, and engage with various stakeholders to deliver efficient and effective results. Due to visa restrictions, candidates must have the right to work in Singapore without sponsorship.
