About the Role

We’re looking for a skilled DevOps Engineer with deep experience in AWS infrastructure, automation, and containerization. You’ll own the full cloud lifecycle — from provisioning and deploying to securing and monitoring — and will play a key role in supporting the scalability and reliability of a platform.

You’ll be joining a culturally diverse, fully remote team, working in a fast-paced environment where strong communication and end-to-end ownership are valued. If you thrive on automating processes, optimizing infrastructure, and helping teams move faster, this role is for you.

We're looking for candidates that have worked on either consumer facing or business facing Product platforms, not internal IT infrastructures.

Tech You’ll Work With

Cloud & Infra: AWS (EC2, ECS, Aurora, RDS, ElastiCache, S3, Route 53, CloudWatch, SQS, Cognito)

IaC: Terraform or CloudFormation

Containerization: Docker on ECS

Monitoring & Security: CloudWatch, Systems Manager, IAM policies, encryption

Other Tools: MongoDB Atlas, Google CDN, Bash or Python scripting

What You'll Need

• 3+ years of hands-on experience managing AWS environments and Linux systems
• Proven expertise in Infrastructure as Code (Terraform or CloudFormation)
• Strong experience in CI/CD workflows using AWS CodePipeline and CodeBuild
• Hands-on experience with Docker and deploying on ECS
• Solid scripting skills in Bash or Python
• Experience with MongoDB Atlas, AWS Redis, and cloud monitoring practices
• Good understanding of IAM, encryption, and cloud security principles
• Familiarity with Google CDN, AWS Lambda, and Elastic Beanstalk
• Exposure to Kubernetes or Helm (even if not currently in use)

Culture Snapshot

• Globally distributed, diverse remote team
• High trust, high ownership culture
• Agile, engineering-first environment
• Focused on clean automation, scalable systems, and strong security
• Transparent and respectful communication across time zones
