Location Petah Tikva, Israel --- Airobotics is a leading company specializing in the development and manufacturing of autonomous drone systems. Its solutions combine hardware, software, and AI-driven technologies to support complex, large-scale operations. Airobotics works primarily with defense industries, including military and law enforcement agencies worldwide. The company is part of Ondas Holdings and operates as a wholly owned subsidiary. We build the software platform behind autonomous drone operations: a cloud backend, a ground control application, and onboard software running on the drone's companion computer alongside the flight controller. We are looking for a DevOps & Infrastructure Team Lead to own the platform that builds, ships, and runs this system, from cloud environments and CI/CD to the software images deployed on every drone and the networks that connect field sites to the cloud. This is a hands-on leadership role. You will lead a small team, set the technical direction for our infrastructure, and still spend a meaningful share of your time building. #### Responsibilities - Lead, mentor, and grow a team of DevOps and infrastructure engineers - Own the infrastructure roadmap and prioritize it against the needs of R&D, QA, and field operations - Own cloud environments (dev, staging, production), managed as code with Terraform, Kubernetes, and GitOps practices - Own the CI/CD platform and build runner fleet, and standardize build, versioning, and release pipelines across all repositories - Own the base OS image, provisioning, and over-the-air update process for the drone's onboard computer and ground units - Own device identity, secrets management, certificates, and access control across cloud, CI, and edge devices - Own connectivity between field sites and the cloud: firewalls, VPNs, cellular links, and network segmentation - Own monitoring, logging, and alerting across cloud, fleet, and CI, and define SLOs for platform services - Run on-call and incident response for the platform, and drive post-incident improvements - Manage cloud cost, capacity, and security posture #### Requirements - 6+ years in DevOps, SRE, platform, or infrastructure engineering - 2+ years leading engineers as a team lead or tech lead - Deep hands-on experience with Kubernetes, containers, and infrastructure as code (Terraform or equivalent) - Deep experience with at least one major cloud provider (AWS, Azure, or GCP) - Experience owning CI/CD platforms (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, or similar) - Strong Linux systems background: networking, storage, boot, and packaging - Strong scripting and automation skills (Python, Bash, Go, or similar) - Experience running production systems: on-call, incident response, monitoring, and SLOs - Strong communication skills and the ability to set clear ownership boundaries with other teams **Nice To Have** - Experience with embedded Linux, NVIDIA Jetson, Yocto, or custom OS image builds - Experience with fleet management or over-the-air updates for edge devices - Experience with site networking: enterprise firewalls, VPNs, VLANs, cellular and satellite links - Experience with on-premises or air-gapped deployments - Experience with security and compliance in regulated environments - Experience with robotics, drones, or autonomous systems - What Makes This Role Unique - Own the full platform from cloud to vehicle, with one team and one pipeline from commit to the field - Build infrastructure for systems that physically fly, where reliability means safe operations, not only uptime - Shape the infrastructure team's charter, boundaries, and tooling as the company defines them ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@id":"https://www.dronejobs.app/#website","@type":"WebSite","inLanguage":"en","name":"DroneJobs","url":"https://www.dronejobs.app","publisher":{"@id":"https://www.dronejobs.app/#identity"}},{"@id":"https://www.dronejobs.app/jobs/airobotics-devops-infrastructure-team-lead#webpage","@type":"WebPage","description":"Petah Tikva, Israel · On-site — Airobotics is a leading company specializing in the development and manufacturing of autonomous drone systems.
