Senior Cloud Engineer

Your Challenge

• Prepare, orchestrate, provision, configure, and monitor cloud infrastructure and services on AWS and Azure.
• Own the Terraform modules and automation behind our fleet of managed customer environments: provisioning, upgrades, and operations.
• Install, maintain, and operate the tooling that runs on top of them, from popular open-source components to our own in-house services.
• Troubleshoot and resolve customer-facing issues alongside our support and delivery teams, keeping production services reliable and available.
• Build, secure, and harden our infrastructure: improving resilience, reducing manual toil, and closing gaps before they become incidents.
• Bring AI into how the work gets done: use AI tooling to move faster on infrastructure code, runbooks, and incident triage, and help the team figure out where it genuinely helps and where it doesn’t.
• Play an active role in shaping the overall architecture of the Ataccama Cloud Platform.

Is This You?

• You have hands-on production experience with Kubernetes: managing clusters, deploying applications, troubleshooting, and ensuring high availability.
• You have expertise in Terraform, managing infrastructure as code to provision and maintain cloud resources effectively.
• You’re well-versed in working with AWS or Azure, leveraging their services to build scalable and secure systems.
• You have a solid understanding of CI/CD and GitOps: building workflows that automate deployments and keeping environment state declarative, versioned, and reproducible.
• You know how to set up and monitor systems using tools like Prometheus and Grafana, creating actionable dashboards and alerts.
• You’re solid on cloud networking, e.g. VPCs/VNets and peering, private connectivity and VPNs, DNS, load balancers and ingress, egress control and access proxies.
• You’re curious about AI and already use it in your day-to-day work. You have views on where it speeds you up, and enough judgement to know when to check its output - especially in production.
• You’re comfortable working with customer environments and communicating clearly in English with people who aren’t infrastructure engineers.
• You operate at a senior level: you can mentor engineers, you scope and drive work without being handed a spec, you make trade-offs deliberately and can explain them, and you raise the bar for the engineers around you.

Nice to Have

• You are fully proficient with both AWS and Azure.
• You’ve led a technical initiative end to end.
• You’re experienced with Helm.
• You’re experienced in managing PostgreSQL databases - optimizing performance, ensuring security, and maintaining reliability.
• Exposure to security and compliance work in a cloud environment (SOC 2, ISO 27001, or similar).

On-call

This role includes participation in an on-call rotation (12/7) for our production environments. We’re upfront about it because it’s part of the job: the rotation is shared across the team, and we treat every page as a signal that something should be automated or fixed properly.

What You Can Expect From Us

• Real ownership. You’ll shape the platform’s architecture, not just execute tickets.
• A team that invests in automating its own work rather than living in firefighting mode.
• Support for learning and growth: certifications, conferences, and time to go deep on the tooling you’ll own.
