Hire DevOps, SRE and Platform Engineers in India
A long list of tools is not reliability experience. HyrEzy finds DevOps, SRE and platform engineers who have owned production systems: running Kubernetes at scale, leading incident response and cutting cloud cost.
DevOps, SRE or platform engineering?
DevOps roles focus on CI/CD, infrastructure as code and deployments. SRE roles own reliability: SLOs, incident response and capacity. Platform engineering builds internal tooling so product teams can ship safely.
Scope and pay rise across the three. HyrEzy defines which one you need, then evaluates candidates on what they have operated, not what they have been certified in.
What separates strong candidates
- Kubernetes run in production, including upgrades and failures.
- Infrastructure as code managing real multi-environment setups.
- Incident leadership and written post-incident reviews.
- Measured cloud cost reductions.
- Security and compliance work such as SOC 2 or PCI readiness.
What to test in interviews
- Walk through the worst incident you led. What changed afterwards?
- How would you set SLOs for this service, and what happens when you miss one?
- Cloud spend grew faster than traffic. Where do you look?
- How would you let fifty engineers deploy safely without a platform team bottleneck?
Common hiring mistakes
- Paying for certifications instead of operational experience.
- Hiring a CI/CD specialist for an SRE role, or the reverse.
- Not testing incident judgment, which is the core of the job.
