    • Automate infrastructure provisioning, patching, and operational tasks using Terraform, Ansible, and CI/CD pipelines to eliminate manual processes.

    • Partner with security teams to enforce compliance (SOC2, CIS benchmarks), implement least-privileged IAM policies, and maintain hardened, secure systems.

    • Serve as Tier-2 escalation during incidents, lead root cause analysis, and continuously improve incident response playbooks and on-call processes.

      • Minimum of 5 years of experience in Site Reliability Engineering, DevOps, or Systems Engineering roles.

      • Strong experience with AWS multi-account environments, Terraform, Ansible, CI/CD tools (GitHub Actions, Bitbucket, Jenkins, AWS CodeBuild/CodePipeline), and observability platforms (New Relic, CloudWatch).

      • Background with containerized environments (ECS, Fargate, EKS) and resilient system architectures.

      • Preferred certifications: AWS DevOps Engineer or Solutions Architect, Kubernetes, or SRE/DevOps practitioner certifications.

      • Excellent analytical, troubleshooting, and problem-solving abilities.

      • Strong collaboration skills to work effectively with cross-functional teams, mentor peers, and contribute to continuous improvement.

      • Benefits:

        This role provides a comprehensive benefits package designed to support health, growth, and work-life balance:

        • Competitive salary range: USD $120,000 – $125,000 per year.

        • 401(k) with company match available from day one.

        • Paid sick leave, volunteer time, and parental leave options.
