• Support dashboards, alerts, incident response, root-cause analysis, and troubleshooting to maintain strong system reliability.
• Partner with engineering teams to support application deployments, infrastructure operations, integrations, and issue resolution.
• Maintain accurate technical documentation, runbooks, operational procedures, and knowledge-sharing resources.
• Demonstrate independent discovery and ownership when addressing complex infrastructure challenges, while contributing to team priorities and mentoring other engineers.
• Support security reviews, compliance initiatives, and infrastructure practices appropriate for environments handling sensitive information.
• Operate effectively in a fast-paced remote environment, balancing competing priorities and maintaining clear communication with technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Requirements

• 4+ years of experience in cloud engineering, infrastructure engineering, DevOps, or a closely related technical discipline.
• Hands-on experience with core AWS services and a strong understanding of cloud infrastructure fundamentals.
• Experience using Terraform or a similar Infrastructure as Code technology to provision and manage infrastructure.
• Working knowledge of Docker and container platforms, with exposure to ECS, EKS, or comparable orchestration environments.
