Job summary

Qrypt, based in Austin, TX, seeks a Senior Cloud Engineer to own the infrastructure and services behind our cloud and entropy-as-a-service offering. You will build and run our AWS environment with Terraform and design cloud services that deliver quantum entropy and keys for customers.

This hands-on role spans infrastructure and application: you own how the cloud is built, deployed, and monitored for health, security, and cost as we scale.

Qualifications

• 6+ years in cloud/platform engineering with end-to-end ownership of a production cloud environment.
• Strong hands-on AWS experience and expertise with Terraform (infrastructure as code).
• Ability to build backend/cloud services in Rust or a strong systems language (C++, Go, Python).
• Experience with monitoring/alerting and observability tooling and running production services.
• Experience deploying software into varied or customer-controlled environments (containers/Kubernetes, portable IaC).
• Fluency with AI and agent-assisted development workflows and ownership of tool-produced outputs.

Responsibilities

• Own and evolve Qrypt's AWS infrastructure as code with Terraform: environments, networking, security, and deployment pipelines.
• Design and build cloud services (in Rust, with some C++ and Python) that deliver quantum entropy and keys reliably and securely.
• Lead the effort to deploy Qrypt's cloud interface into customer environments, including portable, repeatable deployment patterns.
• Stand up monitoring, alerting, and observability so issues are caught early.
• Improve reliability, security, and cost of the cloud platform as it scales.
• Partner with engineering and product to sequence the cloud roadmap and plan work.
• Contribute to on-call and operational readiness for the services you build.
