This is a full-time commitment of 40 hours per week.

Key Responsibilities

• Design challenging, domain-relevant tasks, and write accurate and well-structured solutions to cluster diagnosis, AWS service integration, and infrastructure automation problems.
• Evaluate infrastructure engineering tasks and solutions and provide clear, written technical feedback.

Who gets hired

Core Qualifications

• 4+ years of dedicated professional experience in cloud infrastructure, DevOps, site reliability, or platform engineering at a recognized, top-tier organization.

• Production experience with Infrastructure-as-Code, specifically Terraform and/or AWS CDK.
• Direct experience integrating AWS services in production, including Lambda, API Gateway, and DynamoDB.
• Experience building and owning CI/CD pipelines.
