Job Level
About the role
- You'll build and own the foundation that our engineering team ships on every day.
- Design, deploy, and manage AWS infrastructure: EC2, ECS/Fargate, RDS, DynamoDB, ElastiCache, S3, CloudFront, and more.
- Implement and evolve our Infrastructure as Code practices.
- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions.
- Configure IAM roles, policies, and least-privilege access.
- Enforce tagging, cost controls, and guardrails across environments.
- Design for resilience — redundancy, backups, and multi-AZ or multi-region strategies where appropriate.
- Set up CloudWatch and Datadog metrics, dashboards, and monitors/alarms.
- Establish backup, recovery, and disaster recovery strategies.
- Work with the Head of Security to ensure the appropriate controls and tests (automated via Vanta) are in place to meet the goals of the security program.
- Architect and automate well-separated environments for Dev, QA/Test, Staging, and Production.
Requirements
- 5–7+ years of hands-on experience in DevOps, SRE, or infrastructure engineering, with a focus on AWS.
- Strong background managing core AWS services: EC2, ECS/Fargate, RDS, DynamoDB, ElastiCache, and S3.
- Experience architecting cloud solutions — not just operating them.
- Proficiency with Infrastructure as Code tooling (Terraform, CloudFormation, CDK, or similar).
- Skilled in building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines, preferably with GitHub Actions.
- Experience with observability and monitoring platforms — we use CloudWatch and Datadog, but comparable experience counts.
- Strong understanding of cloud security and cost management best practices.
- Excellent communication and documentation skills.
- Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a small, fast-moving team.
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Software Engineering, or a related field — or equivalent practical experience.
