About Fundraise Up

We're Fundraise Up — a global fundraising platform built to make donating to nonprofits fast, seamless, and accessible to all. Every month, our technology powers tens of millions of dollars in donations across the globe. Our platform is trusted by many of the world's leading nonprofits, including UNICEF, the Alzheimer's Association, and a wide range of global NGOs, with a 4.9/5 rating across top software review platforms.

We're a distributed team of 160+ product professionals, including 80+ engineers, running a large ecosystem. This is a Russian-speaking team operating remotely from Poland.

About the Role

On a busy giving day, ten minutes of downtime can cost around $500k — we need the engineer who makes sure it doesn't happen.

You'll join the DevOps team that owns the platforms every engineering team relies on daily: CI/CD, observability, logging and developer tooling. This is a senior-only role where you will run an entire area — observability or CI/CD — from requirements and design through rollout, operations, and mentoring others.

What You’ll Do

Own one of our core platform areas end-to-end: observability (VictoriaMetrics, Grafana, Graylog / VictoriaLogs, fluent bit, exporters, alerting) or CI/CD (Jenkins scripted pipelines, Harbor, Nexus, build agents).
Drive technical initiatives end-to-end: gather requirements, write design docs, decompose into tasks, implement, deliver to production, and own operational health.
Design for reliability and scale: evolve the architecture of our platforms — topology, integration points, scaling approach, and reliability model.
Support developers: deploy and monitor applications on on-premise servers and Kubernetes (Helm), troubleshoot builds and deploys, help teams with metrics, alerts, and logs.
Automate away toil: codify repetitive operations, provisioning, and maintenance.
Investigate production incidents: act as the senior escalation point for your area, drive resolution, lead post-mortems, implement systemic fixes, and participate in on-call rotations.
Mentor less experienced engineers through design discussions, reviews, and pairing.
Use AI in all aspects of day-to-day work for researching, troubleshooting, and developing.

Requirements

6+ years as a DevOps Engineer / SRE or in very close responsibilities.
Track record of owning technical initiatives end-to-end from requirements and technical design through production delivery.
Confident Linux skills (Ubuntu).
Working knowledge of the Prometheus stack: metric types, exporters, and alerting.
Hands-on experience with CI/CD: pipeline design, build orchestration, artifact delivery.
Containers: Docker, image building, registries.
Ansible and Git.
Experience with Bash or Python scripting for automation and observability.
Production/on-call experience: diagnosing incidents, restoring service, leading post-mortems.
Experience mentoring less experienced engineers.

Must Have

Solid hands-on experience in two or more of the following areas:

VictoriaMetrics / Prometheus stack at scale
Log pipelines at scale (Graylog / VictoriaLogs / ELK)
Jenkins scripted pipelines
Container registries and artifact management (Harbor, Nexus)
Operating applications on Kubernetes (Helm, workload monitoring)
Grafana (dashboards as code, alerting)
