📋 Description

• Own infra domains end to end: Take one or more domains from design through build, operations, and on call. You make the call, review the PRs, and answer the page. • Run Infrastructure as Code: Write and maintain Terraform modules for AWS resources across dev, staging, production, and PCI scoped accounts, orchestrated through Spacelift. • Maintain CI/CD at scale: Own GitHub Actions pipelines for a fleet of Java and Kotlin microservices, including reusable workflows, matrix strategies, and cache behavior. • Build operational tooling: Write Lambda functions in Go and Python for tasks like metrics collection, secret rotation, IAM authentication, and event dispatching. • Own observability: Set up Datadog monitors, dashboards, and SLOs that surface problems before a product engineer notices them. • Own security and compliance controls: Manage IAM, KMS, and access baselines that satisfy PCI DSS and SOC 2 without generating a support ticket every time a product team needs something. • Take part in on call: Join the rotation the team is currently shaping and own your incidents. • Use AI assisted coding tools daily: Claude Code, Cursor, or something equivalent, both to ship features and to help peers get more out of them.

🎯 Requirements

• 5+ years in platform or infrastructure engineering, with meaningful time spent on production AWS at scale. • Solid AWS experience: VPC design, IAM, ECS and EKS, Lambda, RDS. You know when the right answer is a managed service and when it isn't. • Terraform proficiency: you write modules and have dealt with state migrations, drift, and broken remote states in a shared codebase. You're comfortable reading a plan output. • Experience with Spacelift or a similar IaC orchestration tool. • Kubernetes experience designing and running production workloads at scale. We're currently planning a migration from ECS to EKS, so this experience will be especially valuable. • CI/CD experience with GitHub Actions at scale: reusable workflows, matrix strategies, and cache behavior. You're the person other engineers ask when the pipeline is doing something weird. • Observability as a default: Datadog or equivalent, with monitors, dashboards, and SLOs as part of your definition of done. • High Python proficiency: you can navigate our codebase and implement complex features for our internal customers. • Clear communication with product engineers: you can explain a trade off in two sentences and can talk with non technical peers without pulling up code. • Experience with AWS IAM Roles Anywhere and certificate based authentication patterns. • Fluency with AI assisted coding tools such as Claude Code or Cursor, used to ship features, not just review code.

🏖️ Benefits

• Attractive remuneration • Your choice of preferred OS, Windows or Mac • Flat hierarchy and transparent communication in a relaxed, professional atmosphere • Opportunity to develop your talent in a dynamic team with ambitious goals • Flexibility and possibility to work remotely • Pliant Card with monthly credit to explore the product and enjoy food with colleagues
