This is a firm requirement. The technical qualifications below are guidelines. We know that no candidate will perfectly match every requirement - and that's okay. If you're passionate about what we're building and have most of the skills below, we'd love to hear from you. * Cloud & Infrastructure: Hands-on experience managing and securing cloud infrastructure - AWS required; Fly.io or similar a plus. * Infrastructure-as-Code: Production experience with Terraform or equivalent tools. * Databases: Deep experience with PostgreSQL, including schema design, migrations, and query performance tuning. * CI/CD: Strong experience designing and managing pipelines, GitHub Actions preferred. * Languages: Proficiency in modern, type-safe languages - Go strongly preferred. * Observability: Experience building and operating logging, tracing, and metrics systems in production. * MLOps & Data Pipelines: Prior experience shipping ML infrastructure into production - not just experimentation. * Startup experience: You've worked at an early-stage company and know what it means to move fast without compromising the things that matter. * Security: Security-minded by default - you design with the threat model in mind, not as an afterthought. ## Description We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer to own infrastructure, reliability, and platform engineering at Nametag. You'll design and scale the systems that keep our identity verification platform fast, secure, and always available - and build the tooling that makes our engineering team more productive and autonomous. This is a hands-on, high-impact role. You'll work closely with engineering and product leadership to make critical decisions about how we build, deploy, and operate our systems - and then execute on them. If you've thrived in fast-moving environments and care deeply about uptime, correctness, and developer experience, we'd love to meet you., * Design, build, and maintain scalable, cost-effective cloud infrastructure across AWS and Fly.io. * Own deployment strategy and service design across our monolith and microservices, including schema migrations and rollout safety. * Manage infrastructure-as-code (Cloudformation, Terraform or equivalent) for reproducible, auditable infrastructure. * Identify reliability risks, performance bottlenecks, and security gaps - and address them proactively. Observability & Incident Response * Evolve our observability stack - logging, distributed tracing, metrics, and uptime monitoring. * Evolve on-call practices and incident response processes that keep us ahead of customer-impacting issues. * Champion a culture of reliability: postmortems, runbooks, and continuous improvement after incidents. Developer Enablement * Manage and improve our CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions) and establish deployment best practices. * Build internal platform tooling and abstractions that reduce toil and increase engineering velocity. * Partner with product engineers to make infrastructure easy to use correctly and hard to use incorrectly. Data & ML Infrastructure * Design and operate data pipelines that support our ML-powered verification systems. * Evolve our MLOps infrastructure so models can be trained, evaluated, and deployed safely and repeatedly. Collaboration & Leadership * Work closely with engineering and product leadership on technical roadmap decisions. * Review code, mentor peers, and help raise the bar on security, reliability, and operational discipline. * Communicate infrastructure tradeoffs clearly across technical and non-technical stakeholders., * Kindness and integrity - earning trust is central to how we build relationships with customers and colleagues. * Bias for action - we move quickly to deliver impact and protect our customers against fast-moving threats. * Ownership mindset - you care about uptime and stability the way a founder cares about the product. ## Related Videos - [DevOps at Netflix](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/270-devops-at-netflix) - [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) - [Innovating Developer Tools with AI: Insights from GitHub Next](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1268-innovating-developer-tools-with-ai-insights-from-github-next) - [The Power of Purpose: Unlocking Potential and Innovation](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1110-the-power-of-purpose-unlocking-potential-and-innovation) - [Remote Driving on Plant Grounds with State-of-the-Art Cloud Technologies](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/251-remote-driving-on-plant-grounds-with-state-of-the-art-cloud-technologies) - [It's Not Vibe Coding If You Know What You're Doing](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100119-it-s-not-vibe-coding-if-you-know-what-you-re-doing) ## Related Articles - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [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) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [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)
