About This Role
- Design, build, and manage scalable, resilient cloud infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Ansible, Chef, or CloudFormation).
- Define and implement observability metrics (SLIs, SLOs) with monitoring, logging, and alerting tools like Prometheus and Grafana, ensuring production availability and incident management.
- Own CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure cost optimization, on-call rotations, system-level debugging (Linux), and collaborate on technical and architectural decisions.
Minimum Requirements
- 3–6 years of hands-on experience in cloud infrastructure and Infrastructure as Code tools (Terraform, Ansible, Chef, or CloudFormation).
- Proficiency in at least one programming language such as Python or Java.
- Strong experience with observability (SLIs, SLOs), incident debugging, system troubleshooting, and large-scale distributed systems.
- Solid understanding of cloud platforms (preferably AWS; Azure or GCP acceptable) and infrastructure components like load balancers, firewalls, and databases.
Ideal Candidate Profile
- Experienced in startup or small team environments with high autonomy and accountability for end-to-end infrastructure ownership.
- Strong strategic focus on infrastructure reliability, performance optimization, and cost management.
- Demonstrated ability to dive deep into complex system architectures and third-party/internal codebases for debugging and operational excellence.
