(NYSE: RWT), together with its subsidiaries, is a specialty finance company focused on investing in mortgage related assets, and engaging in residential and commercial mortgage banking activities. Our employees are a team of disciplined, dedicated and talented professionals who do what it takes to make the Company a leader in innovation and reputation. We value everyone's contribution, actively soliciting feedback at all levels within the organization. Work gets done in a non-hierarchical, hard-working and fun environment., The Infrastructure Engineering Manager is responsible for technology design, selection, and maintenance in alignment to business initiatives. The individual leads the team that operates Redwood's cloud and on-premises infrastructure, endpoint fleet, and network, and acts as an escalation point for day-to-day operations. This position is responsible for delivering technology solutions that are fault tolerant, cost effective, and scalable across development, test, and production environments, and for the disaster recovery and business continuity capability behind them. Our direction is set. We are consolidating on Azure, moving from manually built infrastructure toward code and pipelines, standardizing the endpoint fleet, and shifting routine operational work into automation and managed services. The team is a mix of internal engineers, contractors, and vendor resources, so a meaningful part of this role is deciding what we build, what we buy, and what we hand off. The successful candidate works closely with security engineering, application development, and data teams, participates in overall technology planning, and owns the working relationship with our Azure managed services partner. Responsibilities & Duties * Lead and grow the infrastructure engineering team, including internal staff and contract or nearshore engineers, and set standards for documentation and handoff. * Provide design and configuration management leadership across infrastructure domains, delivering solutions that are fault tolerant, cost effective, and scalable. * Own the Azure environment, including landing zones, subscription and tenant governance, networking, identity integration, compute, storage, and cost management. * Drive the shift to infrastructure as code and pipeline-based delivery using Terraform or Bicep with Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions so that environments are reproducible and changes are reviewable. * Operate the remaining on-premises and hybrid footprint, including Windows Server, virtualization, storage, and network, and lead decisions on what migrates and what is retired. * Own backup, disaster recovery, and business continuity, including regular restore testing and documented recovery objectives agreed with the business. * Manage the endpoint program across Windows and macOS through Intune, covering imaging, patching, configuration baselines, and hardware standardization. * Oversee monitoring, alerting, capacity, and performance planning, and reduce recurring manual work through automation. * Partner with security engineering to implement infrastructure-layer controls, support SOX IT general controls and audit evidence requests, and close vulnerability and patching commitments on schedule. * Manage vendor relationships, licensing, renewals, and a portion of the infrastructure budget, and bring forward the cost and risk tradeoffs behind renewal decisions. * Maintain documentation, standards, and service management discipline across change, incident, and problem management. * Establish off-hours and on-call coverage that is sustainable for the team. * Other duties as assigned.
