The Role
As a DevOps Engineer at Zoic, you'll design and evolve our on-prem cloud platform, building infrastructure that's resilient, scalable, and optimized for high-performance creative workflows.

What You'll Do
Zoic Studios delivers award-winning visual effects for film, television, and interactive media. We're evolving our infrastructure to meet the demands of next-generation content creation—transitioning to a cloud-native architecture built entirely on-prem using OpenNebula and Kubernetes.
