The role
Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Own the cloud infrastructure and deployment pipelines for a small product team as its sole infrastructure engineer. The work covers release automation, cloud security, infrastructure as code, monitoring and cost efficiency, all as a hands-on individual contributor who builds and runs the systems directly.
What you'll do
-
Design, refactor and maintain build and deployment pipelines for several applications and internal workflows across two cloud environments.
-
Set up cloud architecture and security controls, including access policies, network isolation, encryption, secrets handling, logging and automated vulnerability management.
-
Partner with the technical lead and a small engineering group to provide reliable, observable and easily reversible releases.
-
Codify environments as infrastructure definitions, and put in place observability, paging, data protection and outage playbooks across development, staging and production.
-
Set up networking and access for internal compute resources so engineers can use them independently.
-
Improve performance, availability and cloud cost efficiency, and support customer security reviews with documented controls and evidence.
-

What we're looking for

-
Experience operating production systems on AWS, including compute, networking, identity, storage and databases.

Infrastructure as code experience in production with a common tool.

Comfort working independently and owning work end to end on a fast-moving team.
