On the Operations Web Team, you'll play a critical role in ensuring the systems behind HubSpot's digital experiences are reliable, scalable, and built to grow with our customers. This is a highly visible team responsible for delivering innovative web platforms and applications that power HubSpot's global brand and are experienced by millions every day.
As a Senior DevOps Engineer, you'll design and operate the infrastructure that supports high-traffic, data-intensive marketing platforms and systems. You'll also work across our Cloudflare edge platform, including opportunities to lead experiments and initiatives in areas like web personalization as they develop.

Together, we're on a mission to build the best web experience in the world, and the reliability of our platforms is foundational to that goal.
What You'll Do
- Design, build, and maintain scalable, secure, and reliable cloud infrastructure for high-traffic, business-critical applications, improving it through automation and observability.
- Operate and improve our Cloudflare edge platform (CDN, caching, WAF, DNS), and contribute to edge experiments and initiatives - such as traffic routing, staged rollouts, and personalization - as those efforts grow.
- Lead incident response, root cause analysis, and post-incident reviews, ensuring learnings are translated into systemic improvements.
- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines, and establish and evolve infrastructure-as-code standards for consistency, scalability, and long-term maintainability.
- Use AI-assisted tooling in day-to-day DevOps work and help the team adopt what proves valuable for reliability, delivery velocity, and cost efficiency.
- Own medium-to-large infrastructure initiatives from design through production, including documentation, runbooks and long-term support.
- Contribute to sprint planning, backlog refinement, and roadmap planning, helping prioritize infrastructure investments that improve reliability, scalability, and developer velocity.
- Evaluate technical trade-offs and clearly communicate risks, impact, and recommendations to cross-functional stakeholders across Web Development, QA, and Product.
- Support the growth of less-experienced engineers through informal mentoring, code review, and sharing best practices in DevOps and cloud architecture.
What You'll Bring
Required Qualifications
- 5+ years of experience in DevOps, platform engineering, or infrastructure-focused software engineering roles.
- Significant experience operating production systems in at least one major public cloud environment (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
- Practical experience with infrastructure as code, configuration management, and CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Terraform, Ansible, Jenkins, GitHub Actions).
- Hands-on experience operating Cloudflare in production - CDN and caching, WAF, and DNS.
- Solid understanding of Linux systems, networking, and distributed systems.
- Experience with containers and orchestration tools (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).
- Experience operating large-scale, customer-facing, highly distributed systems in production.
- Strong troubleshooting, prioritization, and communication skills - able to drive complex issues to resolution, manage competing work with minimal oversight, and explain technical concepts clearly.
Nice-to-Have Qualifications
- Experience designing, running, or measuring controlled changes at the edge (traffic splitting, staged rollouts, A/B testing, or personalization), including production experience with edge compute such as Cloudflare Workers, KV, or R2.
- Familiarity with web technologies such as TypeScript, JavaScript, and Node.js.
- Exposure to observability tooling such as Prometheus, Grafana, or OpenTelemetry.
- Experience leveraging AI-assisted engineering or operations tools to improve productivity or system reliability.
- A collaborative approach to mentoring or supporting other engineers.

Target employers with active H-1B filing histories
Companies that have sponsored H-1B petitions for DevOps roles in the past are far more likely to do it again. DOL disclosure data shows consistent filings from cloud-heavy employers in finance, healthcare, and enterprise software.
Emphasize cloud certifications alongside your degree
AWS, GCP, and Azure certifications reinforce the specialty occupation argument for DevOps roles. USCIS looks for evidence that the position requires specialized knowledge, and vendor certifications strengthen that case alongside your academic credentials.
Understand the specialty occupation threshold for DevOps
USCIS has issued RFEs on DevOps roles where the job description is too broad. Ensure your offer letter specifies infrastructure architecture, CI/CD pipeline design, or Kubernetes orchestration rather than generic IT support duties.
Senior-level titles improve your H-1B approval odds
USCIS approves Senior DevOps Engineer petitions at higher rates than junior or generalist IT titles. The seniority signals a degree requirement is genuinely necessary for the role, which is the core test for specialty occupation status.
Ask about O-1A eligibility if you have a strong track record
Senior DevOps engineers with published work, open-source contributions, conference speaking history, or high-impact projects at well-known companies may qualify for the O-1A, which has no lottery and no annual cap.
Start the LCA process early with your employer
Your employer must file a Labor Condition Application with the DOL before submitting your H-1B petition to USCIS. LCA certification typically takes seven business days but can be delayed, so starting early protects your timeline.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Senior DevOps Engineer role qualify for H-1B sponsorship?
Yes. Senior DevOps Engineer qualifies as a specialty occupation because it typically requires at least a bachelor's degree in computer science, information systems, or a related field. USCIS scrutinizes job descriptions carefully, so the offer letter should specify technical duties like infrastructure design, CI/CD architecture, or container orchestration rather than broad IT generalist language.
What degree do I need for an employer to sponsor my H-1B as a DevOps engineer?
A bachelor's degree in computer science, software engineering, information technology, or a closely related field is the standard requirement. If your degree is in an unrelated field, you may still qualify using the three-for-one rule, where three years of relevant work experience substitutes for one year of education. A foreign three-year degree may be accepted if evaluated as equivalent to a U.S. four-year bachelor's degree.
How competitive is H-1B sponsorship for Senior DevOps Engineers compared to other tech roles?
DevOps roles face the same H-1B lottery odds as all cap-subject petitions, with a selection rate of roughly 25% in recent fiscal years. However, senior-level DevOps engineers benefit from two advantages: larger employers with cap-exempt status at universities or research institutions sometimes hire for these roles, and candidates with strong profiles may qualify for the O-1A, which bypasses the lottery entirely.
Where can I find Senior DevOps Engineer jobs that offer visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate curates visa-sponsorship-friendly job listings specifically for candidates on work visas or seeking sponsorship. Searching there filters out employers unlikely to sponsor, which saves significant time. You can also cross-reference DOL LCA disclosure data to verify which companies have active H-1B filings for DevOps and infrastructure roles before applying.
Can a Senior DevOps Engineer qualify for an EB-2 or EB-1 green card petition?
Yes. Senior DevOps engineers typically qualify for EB-2 sponsorship through the PERM labor certification process, which requires the employer to demonstrate no qualified U.S. workers are available. Those with exceptional contributions, such as leading large-scale infrastructure migrations, significant open-source projects, or recognized technical expertise, may qualify for EB-1B as an outstanding researcher or EB-2 NIW if their work has national economic importance.
What is the prevailing wage requirement for sponsored Senior Devops Engineer jobs?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
