**Location:** Remote
**Salary:** $100K-$140K

**Posted:** 2026-03-17
> Senior DevOps Engineer architects and scales AWS infrastructure, builds observability and alerting platforms, leads compliance builds (SOC 2, HIPAA), and owns CI/CD pipelines and reliability practices. Requires 5+ years experience with AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform in fast-paced startups.
## Job Description
## What You’ll Do

- Architect and scale our AWS infrastructure, including container orchestration, autoscaling, networking, and cost optimization
- Build our observability and alerting platform from the ground up. You'll own it from design through production deployment
- Lead infrastructure builds for compliance (SOC 2, HIPAA). We need someone who scopes, builds, and ships, not just advises
- Harden container workloads and secrets management across production, staging, and isolated compliance environments
- Own the shared infrastructure stack (Postgres, Redis, Celery). Find bottlenecks, fix them, and add capacity before they become incidents
- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines, optimizing for deploy speed, reliability, and security
- Extend our Terraform codebase to keep environments reproducible and audit-ready. We ship IaC changes weekly, not quarterly
- Define and own our reliability practices: SLOs, incident response, post-mortems, and the production tooling to back them up
- Unblock engineering teams by reducing deploy friction, improving dev environments, and eliminating toil
- Share on-call with a small team. When things break, you lead the response, run the post-mortem, and make sure the fix ships

## Who You Are

- 5+ years of experience in DevOps, SRE, or Infrastructure Engineering roles
- Deep expertise with AWS, including hands-on production experience operating and scaling **Kubernetes** clusters
- Strong understanding of container orchestration, networking, and security in cloud-native environments
- Solid Infrastructure as Code experience (**Terraform** strongly preferred)
- Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines with modern tooling
- Experience with monitoring and observability platforms. We're actively building out this area and want someone who's done it before
- You've owned projects end-to-end. Scoped the work, built it, shipped it, and operated it. Not just picked up tickets
- You write clear decision documents (ADRs, RFCs) and can explain infrastructure tradeoffs to both engineers and leadership
- You've built infrastructure from scratch at a fast-moving company, not just inherited mature platforms
- You thrive in startups. You ship daily, adapt when priorities shift, and don't wait to be told what to own

## Preferred skills

- Hands-on compliance work (SOC 2 or HIPAA) in a regulated industry like fintech, healthcare, or government
- Experience with event-driven autoscaling and async task processing systems (e.g., **Celery**, **SQS**, **KEDA**)
- Experience with isolated or partitioned cloud environments for regulated workloads
- **Python** scripting for automation and tooling
- Experience with relational database administration, tuning, and scaling in production
- Background in cost optimization and FinOps practices
- Experience with secrets management and Kubernetes package management
