About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Operate the production system: deploys, rollbacks, capacity, incident response.
Design and execute the scaling roadmap — horizontal scaling, load balancing, caching layers, object-storage offload, database replication, IPFS-node fan-out.
Evaluate and integrate cloud building blocks (managed databases, object storage, CDN, load balancers) where they earn their cost.
Stand up CI/CD pipelines (greenfield — likely GitHub Actions) covering test, build, image push, and deploy across all services.
Establish observability: metrics, logs, error tracking, SLOs, and meaningful alerts.
Manage TLS / ACME automation, DNS, and secrets handling — replace today's hardcoded credentials with a proper secret-management story.
Introduce infrastructure-as-code (Terraform or comparable) so the production system is reproducible.
Use AI coding assistants to author IaC modules, runbooks, and incident-response playbooks.
