Job Description

We are a Polish branch of a fast-growing InsurTech product company from Silicon Valley - Hippo Insurance. Our mission is to revolutionize home insurance in the US, starting from IoT monitoring devices to our industry-leading software.

How do we want to get there? We need a top-notch talent, just like you!

Putting a lot of effort into hiring top-tier professionals is a proof that we care a lot about tech experience, the attitude, human approach, and what we could call „culture fit”.

„SwingDev is all about people” - yes, it may sound a bit cliche. But whether we're writing code or just hanging out, we know that people are at the heart of everything we do. We like to have a good time and keep things light, even when we're tackling big projects. We could brag about what’s making us special, but we’ve boiled it down to two key ingredients: mature, companionable people who, rather than compete, prefer to inspire and have each other’s backs; a culture of trust, empathy, and positivity that keeps us together, lets us interact as teammates and friends, and truly enjoy the ride.

So if you're Senior DevOps Engineer looking to shake things up while having a good time, you've come to the right place. 

About the role:

In this role, you’ll collaborate closely with various stakeholders, including Product Managers, Engineering Managers, and developers, to address the needs of different teams. This is an independent position requiring not just strong technical skills, but also great communication abilities, a knack for mentoring and knowledge-sharing. Anyway, you won’t be on your own – you’ll join a senior, international Infrastructure team. Plus, at the start, you’ll have support from a buddy, a Senior DevOps Engineer from Poland, to help you settle in.


What will you do?
  • You'll be responsible for building a world-class scalable and resilient infrastructure that runs the Hippo platform.
  • You'll help make developers more productive by providing tools, metrics, CI/CD processes, and other self-service tools.
  • You'll have the chance to work with various cloud providers, databases, and open-source tools like Terraform, Vault, Kubernetes, and Docker.
  • You'll use Golang, Python, and scripting languages like bash daily to build and scale tools, APIs, and serverless functions.
  • You'll have huge creative freedom and ability to put your mark on the project, and you will take ownership and responsibility for what you do.
  • You’ll have a lot of chances to develop your skills as well as learn a lot about how tech business is done in the US (if you want to).


  • We might be a match if you…
  • Have at least 6 years of experience in DevOps, SRE, or Systems Engineering, and you know your way around build/release automation.
  • Are skilled in Golang, Python, or Bash (or at least one of them).
  • Understand AWS VPC or GCP networking, including key concepts like network separation, security groups, and ACLs.
  • Have hands-on experience with tools like Kubernetes, Docker, CI/CD systems (open source or hosted), and Terraform.
  • Are comfortable working with logging and metrics systems to keep things running smoothly.
  • Enjoy working in a small, focused, and highly efficient team.
  • Have a good command of English (written & spoken).
  • Are available in the afternoons - due to collaboration with the United States, evening meetings may occur. Rest assured, we prioritize work-life fit, respect everyone's private lives, and don’t work at night but we still must ensure that communication between the time zones is effective.

  • You will get extra points for:
  • Experience with ArgoCD and Karpenter


  • Recruitment process:
  • Send us your CV – it's the best way for us to get to know you.
  • Meet Gabi, one of our Recruiters.
  • Join Paweł, our DevOps Engineer, for a 60-minute technical interview.
  • Talk with Eli, our Engineering Manager, to learn how the team operates.
  • Have a conversation with Tomek, Security & Technology Director.
  • Meet on the final stage with Marcin and Alicja.
  • and... welcome aboard! 👋
  • What benefits are waiting for you?
