The role
A Docker Engineer position is open in Powai, Mumbai. Full-time, on-site, paying up to ₹70,000 a month, within a cloud and DevOps team.
What the job involves
- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines that keep deployments moving without manual babysitting
- Automate infrastructure provisioning so environments can be spun up consistently
- Troubleshoot issues across both development and production, often under some time pressure
A deployment that works fine in staging and then fails in production over a configuration drift nobody caught is a fairly regular occurrence, and tracking down exactly what changed is a core part of the work.
Skills required
- Docker
- Containerization more broadly
- Orchestration basics
- Linux
Kubernetes experience, familiarity with a major cloud platform, or comfort writing infrastructure as code with something like Terraform would all strengthen an application, even without deep expertise in any single one.
Background expected
A bachelor's degree is required, typically in computer science or a related technical field. Four years of hands-on experience is expected, and that time should include real work with cloud infrastructure, containerization, and automated deployment pipelines rather than purely theoretical exposure. Practical familiarity with the tools listed above is assumed by this point in someone's career.
Team and location
The team is based in Powai and operates standard hours, with a rotating on-call for production issues that arise outside those hours. Naukri Mitra lists this among a growing set of Docker engineer jobs in Mumbai as more companies in the area build out dedicated DevOps functions rather than treating infrastructure as an afterthought.
Pay and benefits
- Health insurance
- Paid time off
- Provident fund contributions
On-site cafeteria facilities and cab or commute support are also part of the package, since the role runs fully on-site in Powai.
Applying
A resume should describe actual pipelines built and infrastructure automated, along with the scale of the systems involved. Interviews typically start with a technical screening call, followed by a round covering a real troubleshooting scenario from past work. Candidates usually hear back within two to three weeks, and anyone comparing this against other Docker engineer jobs near me should factor in the on-site requirement before applying.
