Skills

About the Role

You will own the infrastructure platform end-to-end: drive full Infrastructure as Code coverage, design and operate ephemeral development environments, and build deployment and GitOps pipelines. You will architect Terraform across multi-region AWS, scale ECS clusters, embed security and observability into infrastructure, manage incidents, and mentor the DevOps team.

Requirements

• Proven experience leading a DevOps or platform engineering team
• Extensive Terraform and Infrastructure as Code experience, including state management and module design
• Experience owning IaC migrations or greenfield IaC buildouts at scale
• Experience designing and operating ephemeral or on-demand environment platforms
• Strong familiarity with AWS Control Tower, VPC, Transit Gateway, PrivateLink, IAM, RDS, and cost management
• Familiarity with AI-assisted development workflows and tooling
• Proficiency with Python or Go for automation, Bash scripting, and GitHub Actions
• Experience with observability tooling such as New Relic, Prometheus, or CloudWatch
• 13+ years of experience in DevOps, SRE, or infrastructure engineering, with at least 2–3 years leading a team

• Own architectural and tooling decisions end to end
• Deliver full Infrastructure as Code coverage and eliminate manual provisioning
• Architect and maintain Terraform codebases for multi-region, multi-account AWS
• Establish IaC governance, module standards, and automated drift detection
• Design and implement ephemeral development environments
• Ensure ephemeral environments are fast to provision, cost-efficient, and identical to production
• Integrate ephemeral environments into development workflows and AI-assisted coding toolchains
• Scale and manage ECS clusters, deployments, and autoscaling
• Own GitOps delivery via ArgoCD including secure pipelines and rollback strategies
• Build fast, reliable CI/CD pipelines with AI tooling integration
• Oversee cloud operations for uptime, failover, and incident response
