We value independent and critical thinking.

We are looking for a Senior Cloud Engineer to join our Infrastructure team in Tel Aviv. In this role, you will be a key contributor to our AWS CDK projects, taking end-to-end ownership of high-impact infrastructure shifts like our migration to EKS. This is a hands-on position where you’ll balance long-term architectural projects with day-to-day support for our R&D teams, ensuring our cloud environment remains scalable, secure, and developer-friendly.

Responsibilities:

As a Senior Cloud Engineer at Lendbuzz, you will be the backbone of our infrastructure, ensuring that our cloud environment is scalable, secure, and developer-friendly. You will:

• Serve as a core contributor to our central AWS CDK (TypeScript) project, ensuring every cloud resource-from S3 buckets to complex networking rules-is defined as code.

• Act as a consultant for R&D and platform teams, helping microservice owners deploy new services and spin up sandbox environments while maintaining security standards.

• Take end-to-end ownership of high-impact infrastructure shifts, including playing a key role in the transition from ECS Fargate to EKS.

• Manage the lifecycle and maintenance of critical infrastructure components, such as security/observability agents and hosted open-source solutions.

• Collaborate with our Boston-based teams on shared global projects to ensure architectural alignment and cross-region infrastructure support.

• Balance long-term project work with active participation in internal help channels, troubleshooting real-time issues and resolving conflicts in central tools.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or equivalent experience.

• 5+ years of experience in DevOps/Software Engineering working in one or more of the big public clouds (AWS / Azure / GCP).

• 3+ years of experience managingInfrastructure-as-Code (Terraform / AWS CDK / CloudFormation).

• Basic understanding of Cloud Networking concepts (VPC peering, Subnetting, Load Balancing, DNS).

• Familiarity with Kubernetes components (Control Plane, Worker Nodes, ETCD) and standardmaintenance routines (upgrades, scaling, node patching).

• Knowledge of AWS common best practices-design, implement, and maintain scalable and reliable cloud infrastructure solutions.

• Hands-on coding/scripting skills in TypeScript/Python/Golang and Linux Bash.

• Experience with microservices methodology, Git, and CI/CD (preferably GitHub Actions & ArgoCD).

• Experience maintaining infrastructure that requires high availability and security.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills in both English and Hebrew.

Advantages:

• Experience setting up Kubernetes clusters from scratch.

• Experience with Helm and Service Mesh technologies (e.g., Istio).

• Experience with observability platforms (e.g., Datadog, ELK, CloudWatch, Prometheus/Grafana).

• Experience developing Kubernetes Operators.

• Familiarity with Crossplane.

What we offer:

- A culture that values product ownership, collaborative architectural planning, and building wins for your resume/portfolio as much as for the company.

- Smart, dynamic people with whom you can share the experience of building something unique.

- Competitive salary with opportunities for growth and advancement.
