You will own the design, deployment, and operation of production infrastructure across AWS (and potentially Azure), delivering secure, reliable, and self-service environments that empower product teams to deploy and iterate rapidly. This is a hands-on technical leadership role-you'll design solutions, write infrastructure code, and guide the evolution of our platform through direct implementation and mentorship. You'll collaborate deeply with software and product teams to ensure that new products are built on sound, scalable infrastructure foundations. You'll also be a key voice in product planning sessions where infrastructure requirements and capabilities influence the path forward. We're looking for someone who can take broad goals, translate them into technical designs, and execute end-to-end-someone who has built and operated large-scale systems and is excited to do it again, better. Team Principles: At Atreides, we believe that teams work best when they: * Remain curious and passionate in all aspects of our work * Promote clear, direct, and transparent communication * Embrace the 'measure twice, cut once' philosophy * Value and encourage diverse ideas and technologies * Lead with empathy in all interactions Responsibilites: * Architect, deploy, and maintain scalable, secure infrastructure across AWS (and potentially Azure) using Infrastructure as Code (Pulumi, Teraform etc). * Collaborate closely with internal engineering teams to understand product requirements, identify system constraints, and design solutions that balance performance, reliability, and cost. * Own AWS EKS clusters and Kubernetes workloads, including autoscaling (Karpenter), FluxCD-based GitOps, Helm charts, and custom SDKs for reusable deployments. * Design and manage core cloud services-VPCs, VPNs, IAM, S3, RDS, ECR, load balancing, and network security controls. * Build, maintain, and document infrastructure templates and developer enablement tooling to allow teams to deploy independently. * Implement observability and monitoring systems using Grafana, Prometheus, and Loki for infrastructure and application metrics. * Establish and contribute to CI/CD best practices using GitHub Actions and related automation pipelines. * Participate in on-call rotations and respond to infrastructure alerts, RFIs, and external requests. * Author and review technical design documents and proposals for infrastructure initiatives, architecture changes, and new services. * Provide technical leadership and mentorship to peers, helping elevate infrastructure craftsmanship across the organization. ## Related Videos - [Why segmenting your infrastructure into tiers makes your infrastructure design better](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1960-why-segmenting-your-infrastructure-into-tiers-makes-your-infrastructure-design-better) - [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) - [Unleashing Potential Across Teams: The Power of Infrastructure as Code](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/930-unleashing-potential-across-teams-the-power-of-infrastructure-as-code) - [Terraform for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/3-terraform-for-developers) ## Related Articles - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [What Are The Top Skills Required For Azure Developers?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/77-what-are-the-top-skills-required-for-azure-developers) - [Mastering Remote Work: Tips for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/558-mastering-remote-work-tips-for-developers) - [Find a Developer Job: 12 Best Job Sites For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/165-find-a-developer-job-12-best-job-sites-for-developers) - [Best Job Boards for Remote Work for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/290-best-job-boards-for-remote-work-for-developers) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline)
