## Description

About the company

Our client is a fast-growing software company.

The role

Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Own the cloud infrastructure and deployment pipelines for a small product team as its sole infrastructure engineer. The work covers release automation, cloud security, infrastructure as code, monitoring and cost efficiency, all as a hands-on individual contributor who builds and runs the systems directly.

What you'll do

\- Design, refactor and maintain build and deployment pipelines for several applications and internal workflows across two cloud environments.

\- Set up cloud architecture and security controls, including access policies, network isolation, encryption, secrets handling, logging and automated vulnerability management.

\- Partner with the technical lead and a small engineering group to provide reliable, observable and easily reversible releases.

\- Codify environments as infrastructure definitions, and put in place observability, paging, data protection and outage playbooks across development, staging and production.

\- Set up networking and access for internal compute resources so engineers can use them independently.

\- Improve performance, availability and cloud cost efficiency, and support customer security reviews with documented controls and evidence.

## Requirements

What we're looking for

\- 2 to 5 years of hands-on cloud infrastructure, DevOps, platform engineering or site reliability experience.

\- Experience designing and running production CI/CD and deployment pipelines.

\- A hands-on history of creating a cloud environment in a young company or compact group, not just inheriting one.

\- Experience operating production systems on AWS, including compute, networking, identity, storage and databases.

\- Infrastructure as code experience in production with a common tool.

\- Comfort working independently and owning work end to end on a fast-moving team.

Bonus points

\- Experience with government cloud or other regulated cloud environments with strict compliance requirements.

\- Broader security expertise, for example writing security policies, offensive testing or vulnerability research.

## Benefits

Compensation and benefits

\- Base salary: USD 155,000 to 180,000

\- Equity

Location and work model

\- San Francisco, CA, United States

\- On-site, 5 days a week
