About GoKwik
GoKwik is a growth operating system designed to power D2C and eCommerce brands from checkout optimisation and reducing return-to-origin (RTO), to payments, retention, and post-purchase engagement. Today, GoKwik enables over 15,000+ merchants worldwide, processes around $2 billion in GMV, and is strengthening its AI-powered infrastructure.
Backed by RTP Global, Z47, Peak XV, and Think Investments and bolstered by a $13 million growth round in June 2025 (total funding: $68 million), GoKwik is scaling aggressively across India and the UK.
Why This Role Matters
Our DevOps team is the heartbeat of reliability and velocity at GoKwik. Every deploy we ship touches billions in GMV and thousands of merchants who trust us daily. As a DevOps Engineer (I / II), you’ll be at the frontlines of ensuring our systems are always-on, resilient, and ready to scale. From designing self-healing infrastructure and debugging live incidents, to automating CI/CD pipelines and mentoring peers, you’ll directly shape how fast and how safely GoKwik can grow. This is a role where you don’t just keep the lights on, you power the engine.
What You'll Own
- Reliability at scale - build and optimise CI/CD pipelines, debug distributed systems, and design infra that heals and scales itself
- On-call ownership - take part in rotations, resolve incidents quickly, and drive blameless postmortems that turn learnings into playbooks
- Automation everywhere - use Terraform, Kubernetes, and scripting (Python/Go/Shell) to eliminate manual toil and accelerate delivery
- Observability mindset - create dashboards, alerts, and tracing that keep us ahead of issues
- Engineering partnership - work hand-in-hand with product and engineering teams to design architectures that are resilient from day one
- Continuous improvement - research, propose, and implement new tools and practices that make our infra faster, safer, and smarter
