Staff Infrastructure & Security Engineer
About The Position
Serve as the technical DRI for the Infra & Security group: own the architecture, set the standards, and make the technical calls across infrastructure, DevOps, and security engineering. Own the cloud platform end-to-end: infrastructure reliability, CI/CD and delivery automation, and the infrastructure-as-code beneath them. Drive a simpler, isolated architecture through shrinking the surface area we defend and maintain: Retire legacy and unused services, consolidate SaaS and vendors, and unwind standing external dependencies. Own infra & security incident-response: a staffed rotation with no single point of failure, severity-matched response, actionable alerting, and runbooks. Bring identity and access under a single source of truth: human, service, machine, and agent identity. Build the Production-agent Infrastructure that lets autonomous agents run and self-verify safely in production. Drive and maintain our security-compliance and supply-chain scanning programs.
Requirements
- Deep cloud engineering experience, primarily in AWS: designing, building, and operating production infrastructure at scale.
- Strong in CI/CD and delivery automation (CircleCI, Nomad, or equivalent) and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform), with ownership of a real production system's reliability.
- Apply security pragmatically: isolation, least-privilege, RBAC, blast-radius containment.
- A formal background in information security or cybersecurity, including having led a SOC 2 (or similar) compliance audit.
- Has led at least one enterprise security-breach or data-leak incident response.
- Comfortable as a hands-on technical lead and DRI: work through architecture, standards, and code review, set technical direction, and raise the bar across a team.
- A bias toward simplicity and subtraction.
- AI-forward: build for isolation, safe data, and non-human identity, and the infrastructure behind it.
- Communicate crisply across engineering, IT/Security, Legal, and Finance.
Nice To Haves
- Experience operating Temporal or similar durable-workflow infrastructure in production.
- Hands-on with supply-chain / dependency vulnerability scanning (Endor Labs, Snyk, or equivalent).
- Compliance-as-code experience: treating controls and evidence as an engineering artifact.
- Familiarity with agent / sandbox isolation patterns: dedicated accounts, scoped tokens, ephemeral environments, and data masking.
- Secrets and credential management at scale (1Password, AWS SSM, or equivalent).
- Experience in insurance, fintech, or another regulated domain.
- A university degree in cybersecurity or a related field.
