Joblaze insights
Quick facts
From the original posting
The role:
You'll own the platform engineering ships on. Most of the work is taking infrastructure that grew organically
and making it reproducible, secure, observable and cheap to run. It's a small team with wide scope, real
autonomy and broad access, so judgment matters as much as skill. This is a hands-on role with no direct
reports.
What you'll do:
- Put all infrastructure under version-controlled, reviewed code, including resources that were built by
hand. Design a safe, auditable path from change to apply.
- Run and evolve our cloud networking across multiple clouds: address planning, private connectivity and secure
engineer access to private resources.
- Operate production Kubernetes and the delivery pipeline around it: clusters, secrets, CI/CD, preview
environments and build performance.
- Own observability and its cost. Make alerts meaningful, telemetry affordable and dashboards trustworthy.
- Drive security and compliance work to closure with evidence.
- Operate large production databases safely, including patching, failover, auditing and replication.
- Lead the infrastructure side of incidents and forensics.
What we're looking for:
You've done most of this before, not just contributed to it:
- 6+ years in infrastructure, DevOps, SRE or platform engineering, owning production systems end to end.
- Led infrastructure-as-code adoption or cleanup in an existing environment, including imports, drift and
state problems.
- Run production Kubernetes and a multi-account cloud environment.
- Designed and debugged non-trivial cloud networks: peering, transit, VPN, overlapping ranges and private
access.
- Operated mission-critical relational databases in production.
- Built or rebuilt an observability stack and brought its cost under control.
- Closed real security and compliance findings (SOC 2 or similar), with audit-worthy evidence.
Nice to haves:
Fintech or other regulated-industry experience; supporting enterprise or customer-hosted deployments; cost
optimization at scale.
