Infrastructure (Cloud) Engineer

Our Infrastructure Engineering team builds and operates foundational Linux and cloud infrastructure that our developers and engineers rely on every day. We are looking for a hands-on Infrastructure engineer with deep, production-level experience administering Linux at scale and designing, building, and operating core multi-cloud foundations.

In this role, you will own and evolve critical infrastructure layers, starting with large-scale Linux systems and extending into the design and implementation of cloud foundations. This includes automating cloud account onboarding and lifecycle management, designing cloud network topologies from the ground up, establishing security and identity foundations, and building shared platforms for cost management, observability, logging, and tracing. You will remain deeply hands-on, responsible not only for architectural direction but also for implementing and operating highly available, automated, production-grade infrastructure.

If you are a hands-on Linux engineer with strong cloud experience who enjoys building cloud foundations, automating infrastructure at scale, and owning architectural decisions through implementation and operation, this role is for you.

What You'll Do

Your primary responsibility will be the end-to-end architecture and stability of our foundational infrastructure. This goes beyond scripting and focuses on systems design, reliability, and security at scale.

• Build the Foundation: Design and implement complete setups of multi-cloud environments, including account structure, landing zones, VPCs, IAM, security baselines, and cost controls.
• Networking & Connectivity: Establish robust, secure hybrid connectivity between cloud environments and on-premises infrastructure (VPNs, Direct Connect, ExpressRoute, etc.).
• Security & Governance: Implement cloud security controls, guardrails, and policy enforcement to align with organizational and regulatory requirements.
• Observability: Introduce logging, monitoring, alerting, and tracing using cloud-agnostic and third-party observability tools to give visibility into the health and performance of cloud services.
• Automation: Develop and maintain automation for account provisioning, identity and access management,
