About the role
Key Responsibilities Design, deploy, and manage cloud infrastructure on AWS, ensuring scalability, security, and cost efficiency. Containerize applications using Docker and orchestrate workloads at scale with Kubernetes (EKS preferred). Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines to enable fast, reliable, and automated software delivery. Implement Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using tools such as Terraform, CloudFormation, or Pulumi. Set up robust monitoring, logging, and alerting using tools like Prometheus, Grafana, CloudWatch, ELK, or Datadog. Drive observability, incident response, root cause analysis, and continuous reliability improvements. Harden infrastructure security: IAM, secrets management, network policies, vulnerability scanning, and compliance controls. Collaborate with developers to optimize application performance, deployment workflows, and developer experience. Automate operational tasks using scripting (Bash, Python, or Go) to eliminate toil. Document architecture, runbooks, and operational best practices. Must-Have Qualifications 5+ years of professional experience as a DevOps Engineer, SRE, or in a similar infrastructure role. AWS: Strong hands-on experience with core services (EC2, VPC, S3, IAM, RDS, EKS, Lambda, CloudWatch, Route 53). Docker: Solid expertise in containerization, writing efficient Dockerfiles, and managing container lifecycles. Kubernetes: Production experience deploying and operating clusters, including Helm, ingress, autoscaling, and troubleshooting. CI/CD: Experience building pipelines with tools like GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, or ArgoCD. Linux & Scripting: Strong Linux administration skills and proficiency in Bash, Python, or Go. IaC: Practical experience with Terraform or equivalent infrastructure-as-code tooling. Monitoring & Observability: Experience with metrics, logs, and traces in production environments. Good-to-Have Qualifications Founding DevOps Engineer experience: Prior experience as the first or founding DevOps hire at a startup, building infrastructure and DevOps culture from scratch. Medical / Healthcare data systems: Exposure to medical data systems, healthcare platforms, or working with regulated data (HIPAA, HL7, FHIR, DICOM, or similar standards). Compliance & Security: Familiarity with SOC 2, HIPAA, ISO 27001, or other compliance frameworks. Service Mesh & Advanced K8s: Experience with Istio, Linkerd, or operators and custom controllers. Multi-cloud or Hybrid: Exposure to GCP or Azure in addition to AWS. Data & ML infra: Experience supporting data pipelines, model serving, or GPU workloads. What We Look For Strong ownership mindset and bias for action. Pragmatic problem solver who balances speed, reliability, and cost. Excellent communication and collaboration skills across engineering, product, and security. Curiosity to learn new tools and a passion for automation and reliability. Why Join Us Opportunity to shape infrastructure and DevOps practices end to end. Work on impactful, mission-driven problems in a fast-paced environment. Modern tech stack, strong engineering culture, and high autonomy. Competitive compensation, equity, and benefits
