Your daily work involves driving automation-first, API-led capabilities to reduce operational toil and designing security controls for regulatory compliance. You will utilize enterprise-authorized AI tools to accelerate analysis and documentation while ensuring data security. The role requires expertise in Python, Java, Go, or C#, along with Terraform, CloudFormation, and platforms like Jenkins, GitLab, or GitHub Actions. You will also leverage Dynatrace and Grafana for telemetry. This role addresses critical infrastructure challenges involving cyber resilience, data protection, and large-scale distributed systems.

  • Design preventive and detective security controls and automated guardrails for regulatory compliance.
  • Integrate enterprise-authorized AI capabilities to accelerate infrastructure analysis and design documentation.
  • Deliver telemetry, reporting, and operational intelligence for backup health and recovery readiness.
  • Mentor engineers and influence senior stakeholders to coordinate cross-team delivery.

What we're looking for

  • Formal training or certification in infrastructure engineering concepts and 5+ years of applied experience.
  • Deep knowledge of infrastructure areas such as hardware, networking, databases, storage, automation, scaling, and resilience.
  • Demonstrated experience building distributed systems, platform services, APIs, automation frameworks, and cloud-native applications.
  • Strong knowledge of data protection, backup/recovery, cyber resilience, immutable storage, and recovery testing.
  • Advanced AWS experience in backup, IAM, security, observability, and infrastructure automation.
  • Proficiency in Python and at least one other language such as Java, Go, or C#.
  • Experience with Terraform or CloudFormation and CI/CD platforms like Jenkins, GitLab, or GitHub Actions.
