About the role

Build new client environments on AWS and support the delivery of Kraken customer environments / Kraken Flow environments
Use Terraform (IaC) to provision and maintain infrastructure in a repeatable, scalable way
Operate and troubleshoot Kubernetes environments (we use Amazon EKS) to support platform deployments and runtime reliability
Contribute to platform tooling and automation (often in Python) to reduce manual steps and improve speed/quality of builds
Help improve delivery tooling and workflows (e.g. CI/CD with CircleCI, deployment tooling, and GitOps with ArgoCD)
Partner with clients and internal product/engineering teams on integrations, including topics like networking and authentication
Participate in production support, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement (code reviews, documentation, tech evaluations)
Collaborate effectively in a remote-first, async team environment (clear written updates, good documentation habits)

AWS: hands-on experience building, running, or supporting AWS infrastructure/services
Kubernetes: practical exposure to deploying/operating workloads (bonus if EKS), plus Docker/container fundamentals
Terraform (IaC): experience provisioning infrastructure via Terraform (or similar IaC tooling)
Python (baseline): able to read/write Python for scripting/automation (Python is the least critical of the four, but still required)
Communication: clear communicator who can work consultatively with stakeholders/clients and thrive in async collaboration
Comfortable working with Linux in real environments.
