DevOps Automation Engineer

‍TruPositive AI (TRU+) is building the first closed-loop FinOps automation engine — a system that not only detects cloud cost anomalies, but understands them, learns how engineers fix them, and automates the fix.

We are gaining momentum, the product is growing fast, and we’re expanding the core engineering team in Ghent (Belgium), one of Europe’s hottest startup hubs. If you want speed, ownership, and real impact, this is the place. 

You’ll join us at the perfect moment: early enough to shape the platform, late enough to move fast with real customers. 🚀

‍

Note: This is NOT a fully remote job. We are looking for candidates based in BELGIUM who possess a valid EU WORK PERMIT. We strongly believe in in-person collaboration and expect team members to work from our Ghent or Antwerp offices at least two days per week.

Who You Are

You’re a cloud-native DevOps automation engineer who thinks in terms of:

• resource state
• CloudTrail/Config diffs
• root-cause patterns
• safe automation
• system design over one-off scripts

You naturally ask:

• “What changed?”
• “Why did the cost spike?”
• “How do we automate this safely?”

You enjoy digging into logs, understanding patterns, and building systems that other engineers can rely on. You care about clarity and correctness. You prefer small teams where you can directly shape the product.

You’re someone who builds leverage — every line of code you write should make TRU+ smarter, faster, and safer for every customer.

If this describes you, you’ll thrive here.

What You’ll Do

1. Understand How Engineers Fix Issues (Today)

When a customer resolves a cost anomaly, you reconstruct the story by pulling cloud state and telemetry:

• CloudTrail events
• AWS Config diffs
• CloudWatch metrics
• Resource inventory and tags

You determine: what changed, which resource was touched, the action taken, and why it solved the issue.

This becomes a structured “resolution flow” that TRU+ learns from.

‍

2. Turn Fixes Into Automations (Tomorrow)

You transform repeated remediations into robust Python automations, with guardrails and rollback.

Examples include:

• applying RI or Savings Plans
• right-sizing compute or storage
• shutting down unused resources
• eliminating cross-AZ NAT patterns
• enforcing tags and governance
• taming runaway Lambda workloads

You think like a cloud operator — correctness first, safety always.

‍

‍

What You Bring

Required

• Strong AWS (and/or Azure) experience
• Hands-on understanding of cloud telemetry (CloudTrail, Config, CloudWatch, Resource Graph, Activity Logs)
• Python automation & API integration experience
• Familiarity with cloud actions (scaling, SKUs, reservations, storage tiers)
• Ability to deduce root cause from logs, resource state, and diffs
• A systems-thinking mindset

Nice to Have

• Databricks
• Docker, IaC, CI/CD
• Experience with cost optimization or anomaly detection
• Background in automation platforms or workflow engines

‍

‍

Why TRU+

• Build the world’s first closed-loop FinOps engine
• Work directly with real customers and their real cloud architectures
• Join a small, sharp, high-ownership engineering team
• Ship fast, learn fast, iterate fast
• Access to professional development opportunities, including personalized training days and learning platforms
• Competitive salary & benefits
• Hybrid flexibility (2 days/week onsite in Ghent or Antwerp, BELGIUM)

This is a rare opportunity to shape a high-impact product at the perfect moment — early enough that your work matters, late enough that we’re moving with real traction.
