Hire DevOps engineers —
pre-vetted African cloud & infrastructure talent
TRUSTED BY COMPANIES ACROSS AFRICA, THE US, AND EUROPE
SKILLS & TECHNOLOGIES
DevOps Engineers available across every major stack
Every developer specifies the frameworks and tools they've
shipped to production — not just listed on a CV.
WHY GIGSON
Why hire devops engineers
through Gigson
Not a marketplace. A curated, assessed talent pool — with a 48-hour
match guarantee.
Cloud platform specialists
AWS, GCP, and Azure — developers specify their primary platform and certification level. Many hold AWS Solutions Architect or equivalent credentials.
Infrastructure-as-code
Terraform, Ansible, and Pulumi experience for reproducible, version-controlled infrastructure. No more snowflake servers.
Kubernetes and containers
Production Kubernetes experience — cluster setup, Helm chart management, ArgoCD gitops, and autoscaling. Not just someone who's done a tutorial.
CI/CD and platform engineering
GitHub Actions, Jenkins, CircleCI pipeline setup; developer experience tooling; monorepo tooling; and internal platform engineering for engineering teams.

Top 4% is not marketing. Here is exactly what

USE CASES
What companies hire
devops engineers to build
Real projects, real outcomes.
Cloud Migration
Move from on-premise or legacy infrastructure to AWS, GCP, or Azure — properly done.
CI/CD Pipelines
Automated test, build, and deploy pipelines that actually work — not scripts held together with duct tape.
Kubernetes Adoption
Container orchestration, autoscaling, rolling deployments, and cluster management.
Cost Optimisation
Right-sizing infrastructure, reserved instances, spot fleets — reducing cloud bills without reducing reliability.
"Our infrastructure was held together with scripts and good intentions. Our Gigson DevOps hire migrated everything to Kubernetes, set up proper CI/CD, and cut our deployment time from 40 minutes to 4. Worth every penny."
