About the Role

Working in the Infrastructure team, you’ll be responsible for foundational compute and cloud components, including Kubernetes clusters, cloud infrastructure, networking, and Infrastructure-as-Code frameworks. You will split your time between operational ownership and writing code for automation and tooling, while also designing and running scalable systems in AWS.

Responsibilities

  • Take ownership of complex infrastructure initiatives end-to-end, spanning Kubernetes, cloud infrastructure, networking, and infrastructure-as-code frameworks.
  • Break initiatives down into executable work, identify dependencies, provide accurate estimates, and document project-level technical decisions.
  • Design, deploy, and operate secure, scalable systems in AWS.
  • Independently plan and drive technical improvements to the compute and cloud platform, using data and clear success metrics to prioritize work.
  • Build and own self-service tooling, automation, and Infrastructure-as-Code frameworks.
  • Unblock other teams through code and design reviews, proactively answering questions, and sharing knowledge.
  • Serve as a first responder during on-call rotations for core infrastructure, lead root cause analysis, and drive incident mitigation.
  • Drive team-wide quality objectives for the Infrastructure platform: reliability, operational readiness, and developer experience tooling.
  • Act as a role model for other engineers by sharing constructive feedback and supporting hiring.
  • Partner closely with platform teams to align on shared standards, tooling, and the joint infrastructure roadmap.

Requirements

  • A track record of owning complex technical initiatives end-to-end, contributing to architecture-level decisions.
  • Deep, hands-on expertise operating Kubernetes and container orchestration in production.
  • Strong experience with cloud platforms (AWS preferred), including networking, IAM, account structuring, and cost management.
  • Proficiency in Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform preferred) and building provisioning or automation frameworks.
  • Solid software engineering skills (Go, Python, or similar) applied to building internal tooling and automation.
  • Broader knowledge across supportive technologies (e.g. Kafka, gRPC, Postgres / MongoDB, Redis, CI / CD such as GitHub Actions).
  • Solid understanding of SRE principles, including incident response, fault-tolerant architecture, and capacity planning.
  • Experience unblocking and mentoring other engineers.
  • Excellent collaboration and communication skills.
