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

Who You Are

You bring 1 - 4 years of experience in DevOps / SRE / CloudOps roles, ideally in fast-scaling SaaS or eCommerce environments

Strong fundamentals in Linux, networking, and distributed systems

Hands-on experience with AWS/GCP, Terraform, Kubernetes, and CI/CD tooling (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, etc.)

Comfortable with on-call ownership, debugging production incidents, and improving reliability

Solid scripting ability (Python, Go, or Shell) to automate and eliminate manual toil

Curious, proactive, and eager to make systems faster, safer, and more reliable

At higher experience levels: proven ability to design resilient infra, run chaos tests, mentor peers, and drive best practices across teams

Why GoKwik

At GoKwik, we aren’t just building tools, we’re rewriting the playbook for eCommerce in India.

We exist to solve some of the most complex challenges faced by digital-first brands: low conversion rates, high RTO, and poor post-purchase experience. Our checkout and conversion stack powers 500+ leading D2C brands and marketplaces and we’re just getting started.
