DevOps is the hardest role to keyword-match

  • Retained recruiters.
  • LinkedIn Recruiter seats.
  • Keyword-matched resumes.
  • Templated InMails.

'DevOps' is a catch-all for five different jobs: CI/CD owner, cloud architect, SRE, internal tools engineer, and release manager. Recruiters filtering for 'DevOps' send you all five types, most of whom are wrong for your stage.

At a small startup, you need someone who can stand up infra, own the on-call rotation, and build developer tooling, usually all three. That's a specific person, not a job category.

The candidates you want are often buried in infra-heavy open source work, DevOps-focused blog posts, or platform teams at adjacent startups. They don't self-describe as 'DevOps engineer' in their headlines.

How Superposition finds your DevOps engineer

01

Beyond the title

We surface candidates based on infra work: Terraform repos, Kubernetes talks, reliability post-mortems, not just job titles.

02

Role-definition intake

Our voice agent clarifies the actual shape of the role (SRE-leaning, platform-leaning, or tooling-leaning) so matches align.

03

Outreach that respects their time

Messages that reference specific systems they've built, not generic 'exciting infra opportunity' templates.

04

Flat-rate pricing

$500/agent/month. One price for any infra role.

Questions.
Answered.

Largely the same candidate pool at startup scale. What matters is whether they have owned production end to end, not which of the three words is on the CV.

Usually when deploys, environments and on-call are eating more than a day a week of engineering time. Earlier than that, the work is usually better done by whoever built the system.

No. The concepts transfer and a strong engineer picks up a new provider in weeks. Requiring an exact match rules out good people for a shallow reason.

Yes, and say so at intake if it matters. Cloud spend is often the second thing a good first infrastructure hire fixes.
