Requirements
The ideal candidate is an automation expert who thrives in high-stakes environments and possesses a deep “builder and optimizer” mindset.
Experience: Minimum of 7+ years of experience designing, building, and managing complex Cloud systems (AWS), ideally within FinTech, government, or similarly regulated, high-availability environments.
Regulatory & Compliance Frameworks: Hands-on experience building, managing, and automating infrastructure that adheres to strict government-level security standards, specifically GovRAMP and FedRAMP. Experience partnering with security teams to maintain SOC2 Type 2 compliance is essential.
AWS Mastery: Expert-level proficiency in AWS architecture and services (e.g., EKS/ECS, EC2, S3, RDS, Lambda, VPC, IAM, Route53). You treat cloud infrastructure as a flexible, scalable commodity that is secure by default.
GitHub Optimization & CI/CD: Deep, hands-on expertise in GitHub, GitHub Actions, and advanced deployment strategies. You are adept at optimizing runner performance, creating reusable workflow templates, managing secrets, and implementing zero-downtime deployment models (Blue/Green, Canary).
Observability & Monitoring: Extensive experience implementing and managing modern observability stacks (e.g., Datadog, New Relic, Prometheus, Grafana, CloudWatch). You are highly skilled at configuring distributed tracing, complex alerting, log aggregation, and APM to ensure constant, actionable visibility into system health.
Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Deep knowledge of Terraform, AWS CDK, or CloudFormation to automate the provisioning, scaling, and compliance auditing of environments reliably and consistently.
Application Stack: Strong understanding of supporting Node-based systems and modern web applications within containerized environments (Docker, Kubernetes).
Documentation & Process Design: Proven ability to create and maintain stringent, audit-ready documentation. You don’t just build and operate the system; you prove its integrity through impeccable record-keeping and process design. This includes authoring detailed runbooks, architectural diagrams, disaster recovery procedures, and mapping technical controls to compliance frameworks to ensure smooth audits and seamless knowledge transfer across teams.
Collaboration & Culture: Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to foster a culture of end-to-end accountability among Engineering teams, seamlessly bridging the gap between code creation, robust security practices, and continuous production reliability.
