Job summary

Hypori is seeking a Senior Infrastructure leader to own secure, scalable AWS/AWS GovCloud infrastructure for a SaaS platform. You will set IaC standards, drive reliability, and lead observability and incident response across modern tooling and vendors.

You will shape security-aligned, cost-conscious, and highly available architectures while mentoring engineers and guiding architectural decisions in a remote, compliance-focused environment.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or Engineering, or equivalent hands‑on experience in cloud infrastructure, SRE, or systems engineering.
• 8+ years in cloud operations, SRE, DevOps, or infrastructure engineering, with a track record of progressing into senior, architectural ownership
• Deep AWS expertise, including EC2, VPC, IAM, S3, EBS, EFS, Route 53, and CloudWatch
• Proven experience designing multi-account AWS environments and landing zone frameworks (such as AWS LZA), including isolation, governance, and guardrail design
• Expert-level Infrastructure as Code (Terraform or CloudFormation), with a track record of building reusable modules and org‑wide standards, not just consuming them
• Production‑grade Kubernetes and Docker experience, with the judgment to make orchestration and architectural trade‑off decisions
• CI/CD architecture experience (GitHub Actions, Jenkins), with fluency in modern deployment strategies such as blue/green, canary, and rolling
• Track record operating high‑availability SaaS platforms under strict security, reliability, and uptime SLAs
• Advanced observability and incident management experience (Datadog, Splunk, Prometheus, Grafana, ELK), including designing monitoring and alerting strategy for 24/7 NOC environments
• Demonstrated incident command experience, leading high‑severity incidents from detection through resolution and systemic RCA
• Experience operating in regulated environments (FedRAMP, DoD IL4/IL5, SOC 2 Type 2), with working knowledge of NIST 800‑53 and a strong grounding in cloud security and resilient architecture
• Demonstrated ability to mentor senior and mid‑level engineers and set technical direction beyond your own work
• Fluency in Git‑based workflows and modern development and deployment practices
• Willingness to serve as an escalation resource in a 24/7 on‑call rotation
• S. citizenship required; Hypori is not able to offer visa sponsorship for this role
• Active Secret clearance required, and eligible for a Common Access Card (CAC)
• Location: remote

Responsibilities

• Own the architecture and operation of secure, scalable, highly available AWS and AWS GovCloud infrastructure supporting the Hypori SaaS platform end to end
• Set the technical direction for Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, OpenTofu, CloudFormation), establishing org-wide standards, reusable modules, and governance patterns other engineers build on
• Drive platform reliability, scalability, and capacity work, and help define SLA and SLO targets
• Lead the end-to-end observability strategy, including monitoring, logging, alerting, and telemetry, across Datadog, Splunk, Prometheus, Grafana, and ELK
• Serve as incident commander for high-severity production events, drive root cause analysis, and lead systemic, multi-phase remediation focused on prevention, not just fixes
• Design and implement CI/CD platforms and deployment automation (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, AWS CodePipeline), and champion progressive delivery as the org standard
• Lead the operation and evolution of containerized workloads on Kubernetes and Docker, and make the orchestration and scaling trade-off calls for the platform
• Identify scalability and performance bottlenecks before they become incidents, and design the systems that eliminate them
• Partner with Security and Compliance leadership to implement secure-by-design infrastructure that supports FedRAMP, DoD IL5, and SOC 2 Type 2 requirements
• Help own disaster recovery and business continuity by designing, testing, and continuously validating RTO and RPO targets
• Treat cloud cost optimization as a discipline, finding inefficiencies at the design level and implementing measurable, sustained cost controls
• Mentor engineers, lead design reviews, and shape the technical standards the broader team is measured against
• Lead cross-team resolution of systemic operational issues, delivering roadmapped improvements with measurable, reported impact
• Represent Hypori in technical conversations with cloud and infrastructure vendors, holding them to performance, reliability, and security commitments
• Participate in a 24/7 on-call rotation
