We're looking for a Staff DevOps Engineer to own the reliability, scalability, and security of our AWS infrastructure. This is a role for someone who thinks in systems, automates everything that shouldn't be manual, and can move fast without breaking trust in the platform. We're building a new platform alongside our current one, so this role requires balance: owning and operating what's live today while partnering with our Staff Software Architect and Staff Data Architect to stand up the infrastructure for what's next. You'll set the technical bar for how we build, deploy, and operate our infrastructure, and be a key partner to engineering as we scale., * Design, build, and maintain scalable, secure, and highly available infrastructure on AWS. * Balance ownership of existing production infrastructure with building new infrastructure for our next generation platform. * Partner with the Staff Software Architect and Staff Data Architect to design the infrastructure foundation for the new platform, while ensuring a clean path to carry over what still needs to run from the current one. * Own and evolve the CI/CD pipeline infrastructure and tooling that automation and quality gates run within. * Drive infrastructure as code practices across the organization using Terraform or CloudFormation. * Manage and optimize core AWS services (EC2, VPC, ECS/EKS, RDS, S3, Lambda, IAM, CloudWatch). * Build and improve observability, monitoring, and alerting so issues are caught before they become incidents. * Lead incident response and root cause analysis for production systems. * Drive cost optimization and capacity planning across our cloud footprint. * Embed security best practices into every stage of the deployment pipeline. * Mentor engineers on DevOps and cloud infrastructure best practices. ## Related Videos - [From DevOps to Scaled DevOps: How We’re Rebuilding Continuous Delivery as a Platform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100018-from-devops-to-scaled-devops-how-we-re-rebuilding-continuous-delivery-as-a-platform) - [Shipping Faster with Less: Render on Cloud Hosting, AI Workloads, and the Future of DevOps](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1894-shipping-faster-with-less-render-on-cloud-hosting-ai-workloads-and-the-future-of-devops) - [Docker Compose: Rediscovered](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1978-docker-compose-rediscovered) - [Innovating Developer Tools with AI: Insights from GitHub Next](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1268-innovating-developer-tools-with-ai-insights-from-github-next) - [My journey into DevOps world - How it all started!](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/545-my-journey-into-devops-world-how-it-all-started) - [#90DaysOfDevOps - The DevOps Learning Journey](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/548-90daysofdevops-the-devops-learning-journey) ## Related Articles - [DevOps Engineer Salary [2023]](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/203-devops-engineer-salary-2023) - [How We Built a Worry-Free System That Runs for 10+ Years – And What We’d Do Again](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/751-how-we-built-a-worry-free-system-that-runs-for-10-years-and-what-we-d-do-again) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [The Best Software Developer Blogs to Read](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/156-the-best-software-developer-blogs-to-read) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline)
