About the role

You will own the end-to-end design, build, and operation of the company's cloud infrastructure on AWS and Kubernetes. Additionally, you will define CI/CD pipelines, IaC standards, and security practices to support a fast-growing engineering team.

What they look for

AWS Kubernetes Terraform Helm CI/CD Infrastructure as Code SRE Security Secrets Management Observability Microservices Cloud Infrastructure Automation Identity Management Network Segmentation Compliance

Requirements

The role requires 5-7 years of hands-on DevOps experience in cloud-native production environments with deep expertise in AWS and Kubernetes. Candidates must have a proven track record of building infrastructure from scratch and a strong security-minded approach to system architecture.

Full description

We're building the security infrastructure layer from the ground up, and we're looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to own it end to end. You'll be one of the first infrastructure hires on the core team - designing and building our AWS/Kubernetes production environment from scratch, setting the standards the rest of engineering will build on, and making the architectural calls yourself rather than inheriting someone else's.

What you'll do

  • Own our cloud infrastructure end to end — design, build, and operate production AWS/Kubernetes environments from the ground up
  • Build CI/CD pipelines and deployment workflows that let a small, fast team ship safely and often
  • Define the IaC foundation (Terraform, Helm) and the DevOps/SRE standards, tooling, and practices the organization will grow into
  • Build security into the infrastructure by default — secrets management, hardened workloads, least-privilege access, and the groundwork for SOC 2 and customer security reviews
  • Drive observability, reliability, and performance across a modern microservices stack — you define what "healthy" means and how we'll know
  • Partner directly with engineering and the founders on architecture and technology decisions

Requirements

What we're looking for

  • 5-7 years of hands-on DevOps/Infrastructure experience in cloud-native production environments
  • Deep experience with AWS (or GCP/Azure) — you've made the architecture decisions, not just executed them
  • Strong production Kubernetes experience at scale, including the failure modes
  • Expert-level IaC — Terraform, Helm — with a track record of building a standardized, maintainable foundation
  • Strong CI/CD and automation background; you treat infrastructure as a product
  • Proven experience building infrastructure from scratch, ideally in an early-stage startup — comfortable with ambiguity and with owning decisions without an existing playbook
  • Security-minded by instinct: secrets, identity, network segmentation, supply-chain hygiene, and compliance readiness are things you've actually implemented

Nice to have

  • Experience in a cybersecurity company or working closely with security teams
  • Experience achieving SOC 2 / ISO 27001 readiness
  • MLOps — infrastructure for ML workloads, GPU environments, and model deployment pipelines
  • Multi-tenant SaaS and cloud cost optimization (FinOps)
