Breezy HR is a remote‑first, hiring platform built for small and mid‑sized businesses. Thousands of teams trust us to streamline recruiting from first touch to signed offer, and we’re passionate about delivering a fast, delightful experience for every candidate and every hiring manager.

We need a senior hands‑on owner to stabilize, secure, and evolve our cloud platform. You’ll be a primary decision‑maker for AWS architecture, reliability, CI/CD, observability, and cost posture, partnering closely with the directors, developers, product, and customer success teams.

• AWS architecture & operations: Own production infrastructure end‑to‑end (networking, compute, storage, IAM, routing, scaling, backups, DR).
• IaC & environments: Standardize and evolve Infrastructure‑as‑Code (Terraform or AWS CDK); codify dev/stage/prod with repeatable patterns and least‑privilege IAM.
• CI/CD: Keep deployments fast and safe (build, test, deploy, rollback); drive progressive delivery where it makes sense.
• Observability & incident response: Ensure logs/metrics/traces + actionable dashboards; lead incident command and postmortems.
• Security & compliance: Own cloud security baselines and support SOC 2 / ISO 27001 / GDPR needs.
• Cost & performance: Right‑size infra, track spend, and implement guardrails to prevent regressions.
• Technical leadership: Document the platform, unblock developers, mentor peers, and cultivate cross‑training so nothing is a single point of failure.
• On‑call: Alternate with others on the infra on‑call rotation and train others as needed.

• Backend: Node.js microservices
• Data: Mongo
  
  DB (self‑hosted) and Redis
• Hosting/Orchestration: AWS
• IaC: Terraform and/or AWS CDK
• Tooling: Git‑based CI/CD; common observability suites

• 7+ years building and running production systems on AWS (VPC, EC2, ELB/ALB, S3, Cloud Front, Route
  53, RDS/Elasti Cache, IAM, Cloud Watch, SNS/SQS, etc.).
• 5+ years Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, CDK) and environment automation.
• Proven CI/CD ownership for multi‑service SaaS, including safe rollbacks and release hygiene.
• Solid security fundamentals (least‑privilege IAM, network segmentation, secrets, TLS) and familiarity with SOC 2 / ISO 27001 / GDPR expectations.
• Observability end‑to‑end (logs/metrics/traces), incident leadership, and postmortem practice.
• Proficient coding in JavaScript/Node.js (enough to contribute to internal tools, CLIs, or platform services).
• Clear, pragmatic communicator who documents decisions and trade‑offs.

• Background with Mongo
  
  DB, Redis, Elasticsearch
• Prior team leadership

• Senior, low‑ego, remote‑first team. We value fast feedback loops, little yellow/red tape, ability to iterate at startup‑like pace

• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) with company match
• PTO:
  15 days in year 1,
  21 days in year 2
• Mac Book Pro + the gear you need
• Fully remote
