Cloud Computing: Infrastructure & Operations, Systems Engineer, SRE/Site Reliability, IT Infrastructure
We're looking for a Dev Ops Engineer to join our team and help scale our infrastructure. You'll architect cloud systems, establish best practices, and build robust foundations that let our engineering organization move fast. This is a deeply hands-on role where you'll make critical infrastructure decisions, define our approach to cloud architecture and security, and ensure we scale reliably. A high-impact position for someone who thrives in startup environments with true ownership over production systems.
WhatYou’ll Do
- - Own infrastructure strategy and architecture decisions
- - Design and implement scalable and secure cloud environments on AWS
- - Architect and optimize production Kubernetes clusters
- - Establish Dev Ops best practices, standards, and processes
- - Build robust CI/CD systems for fast and reliable deployments
- - Implement comprehensive monitoring, logging, and alerting
- - Own incident response and establish SLIs/SLOs
- - Define security policies and compliance controls
- - Optimize infrastructure costs and performance
- - Create documentation and runbooks
- - 2+ years of Dev Ops experience in a startup or fast-paced hands-on environment
- - Production Kubernetes cluster architecture and administration
- - Deep Terraform expertise at scale
- - Strong Python and Bash automation capabilities
- - Cloud security architecture, networking design, and compliance experience
- - Track record building production environments from scratch
- - Microservices architecture at scale
- - Advanced observability implementation
- - Compliance implementation experience
- - Git Ops workflows
You've built and scaled production systems in startup or similarly fast-paced environments where you owned infrastructure end-to-end. You understand the full Dev Ops lifecycle and can balance speed with reliability as the business grows. You have strong technical opinions from real experience but stay pragmatic about tradeoffs. You're excited to work on a small, focused team where you'll have significant impact - establishing patterns, choosing tooling, and building the foundation for growth.
