Solid backend engineering fundamentals and the ability to work across infrastructure-heavy systems.
Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure in AWS, GCP.
Experience with Terraform or other infrastructure as code tools.
Strong networking fundamentals, including areas such as VPCs, subnets, routing, proxies, and private connectivity.
Built or improved deployment automation, onboarding workflows, internal cloud platforms, or customer-environment setup systems.
Can balance engineering rigor with pragmatism and are excited to turn complex setup problems into repeatable productized systems.
Communicate clearly, collaborate well across functions, and are comfortable taking ownership in an evolving environment.

Responsibilities

Build and improve systems that automate customer setup and deployment across cloud environments.
Develop deployment workflows and infrastructure as code templates that mirror customer environments and reduce manual setup work.
Improve support for complex deployment scenarios including BYO-VPC, customer-managed keys, airgapped environments, and custom-region deployments.
Work on cloud account and project bootstrapping, authentication wiring, proxy and private networking, and deployment orchestration.
Partner closely with Platform, Security, Product, and customer-facing teams to make deployments faster, safer, and easier to operate.
Raise the quality, reliability, and coverage of our AWS and GCP deployment tooling over time.
