## About the Role

* Adaptability & Continuous Learning: A strong engineering mindset with a proven ability to pick up new tools, architectures, and methodologies rapidly as our ecosystem evolves.
 * Cloud & Infrastructure Foundation: 3-5+ years of experience in DevOps, Cloud Engineering, or Platform Engineering, with production exposure to a major cloud provider (we use AWS, but Azure or GCP experience is just as welcome).
 * Containerization Concepts: Solid foundational knowledge of the Kubernetes ecosystem, Docker containerization, and configuring CI/CD pipelines (such as GitLab CI).
 * Modern Operations (Our Stack): Familiarity with-or a strong desire to learn-Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) and declarative GitOps workflows (ArgoCD/Kargo).
 * Observability & Security Awareness: Observability & Security: Familiarity with cloud security tooling and monitoring/observability (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, Elasticsearch). Experience building a security posture is a strong plus.
 * Core Competencies: Business fluency in English and an openness to integrating AI-assisted tools (like Cursor, Copilot, or ChatGPT) into your daily scripting and debugging workflows. (It's a nice-to-have bonus if you have prior experience with Elasticsearch, Keycloak, Spring Boot, PostgreSQL, or compliance frameworks like ISO 27001!)

## Description

* You develop the Accurids SaaS platform stack, focusing on enhancing platform automation, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), identity management, and advanced observability.
 * You drive our security operations, building out our compliance posture through log reviews, vulnerability scanning, active monitoring, alerting, and supporting ISO 27001 requirements.
 * You ensure operational resilience and continuity, working as a key senior pillar to transition our infrastructure from a single-point-of-failure risk to a robust, well-documented architecture.
