Breezy HR is a remote‑first, profitable hiring platform built for small and mid‑sized businesses. Thousands of teams trust us to streamline recruiting from first touch to signed offer, and we’re passionate about delivering a fast, delightful experience for every candidate and every hiring manager.
Why this role?We’re hiring a Senior Platform Engineer with deep, senior‑level infrastructure experience who also enjoys writing and shipping customer‑facing code — about a 65 % DevOps/Platform, 35 % product‑code split.
We’re modernizing our platform for faster releases, stronger reliability, and tighter security. Our small, senior team needs an engineer who can keep CI/CD humming, maintain and continuously improve our cloud infrastructure, own observability, and jump onto product work so the platform stays battle‑tested and our devs stay unblocked.
Key responsibilities (≈ 65 % platform / 35 % product)- Own CI/CD pipelines end‑to‑end, ensuring fast, reliable deployments and simple rollbacks.
- Maintain & evolve our AWS infrastructure with Terraform or AWS CDK, continually improving security, cost efficiency, and compliance (least‑privilege IAM, secrets management).
- Run observability – logs, metrics, traces, dashboards – and lead incident response for production issues.
- Embed with product engineers to deliver customer features or performance fixes (Node.js / React).
- Cross‑train teammates through pairing and concise documentation so knowledge never bottlenecks.
- Participate in a shared on‑call rotation (≈ 1 week in 6) for production infrastructure.
- 5 + years total engineering experience; 3 + years building cloud infrastructure as code (Terraform, CDK, Pulumi, etc.) on AWS.
- Proven ownership of CI/CD for multi‑service SaaS products.
- Production‑grade coding skills in at least one language – ability to deliver a small API, CLI, or internal UI end‑to‑end.
- Hands‑on with containers & orchestration (ECS, EKS, Fargate, Docker Compose) and at least one observability stack (Grafana, Datadog, Honeycomb, New Relic).
- Working knowledge of security best practices (TLS everywhere, least‑privilege IAM, secrets management) and basic compliance frameworks (SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR).
- Strong communicator able to explain infrastructure trade‑offs to engineers, PMs, and architects.
- Implemented GitOps (ArgoCD, Flux) or blue/green & canary release patterns.
- Experience with MongoDB, Redis, Elasticsearch, or high‑scale message queues.
- Mentored DevOps engineers or led a platform guild.
- Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance.
- PTO – 15 days in year 1, rising to 21 days in year 2.
- MacBook Pro and all necessary accessories.
