Sr. DevOps Engineer

##
Location: Mandaluyong,Metro Manila,Philippines

The Role

A highly experienced technical leader who takes ownership of significant technical challenges and provides mentorship and guidance to the entire team.

This role focuses on leading technical delivery, designing complex systems, and serving as a go-to expert in specific domains. The ideal candidate demonstrates deep technical expertise, strong leadership skills, and the ability to influence technical direction across teams through individual contribution and technical excellence.

The Benefits

At Stratpoint, we enjoy the autonomy, lack of bureaucracy, and the freedom to experiment but without the chaos. We’re like a startup but with adult supervision.

You will be supported by capable management of HR, Finance, and IT that adheres to the highest standards of integrity and good governance.

Hybrid is our mode of work, but when we need to come together, we have inviting open-floor office spaces designed to spark gatherings, collaboration, and camaraderie.

Your Team

• Reports to: Engineering Manager and/or Staff Engineer
• Team size: Part of a development team with cross-team influence (typically 6-10 members)
• Direct reports: None (Engineer with deep technical expertise in 2+ tech stacks)
• Key collaborators: Product leadership, architects, other senior engineers, and cross-functional stakeholders

Your Responsibilities

• Lead technical delivery for an entire team or complex technical initiatives across teams
• Design complex applications, microservices, and system architectures that scale
• Architect solutions that balance technical excellence, business needs, and team capabilities
• Mentor and develop mid-level and junior engineers through code reviews, pair programming, and technical guidance
• Drive technical standards, best practices, and engineering culture improvements
• Collaborate with product and business stakeholders to translate requirements into technical solutions
• Own system reliability, performance, and operational excellence for critical services
• Influence technical decisions and roadmaps beyond immediate team scope
• Own outcomes, not just outputs — leading a workstream means you're accountable for what the team delivers, not just what you personally write; that shift in accountability is where your influence grows
• Treat people development as a deliverable — when you coach a junior engineer and they improve, that improvement is your output; engineers who compound their impact through others are the ones trusted with more
• Exercise hiring judgment — your read on candidates shapes the team's future capability; how you evaluate people in panels is the same skill that determines who you'd later build a team around
