About this role 

We’re looking for a Senior Engineer to join our Core Platform Service team, someone who thrives on building reliable, scalable, and automated infrastructure. You’ll play a key role in rolling out, operating, and standardizing core platform capabilities, including EKS clusters, HashiCorp Vault for secret management, and Argo for continuous delivery and workflows.
This is a hands-on engineering role where you’ll design and implement platform services that empower application teams to deploy, run, and secure workloads reliably at scale.

These are some of the key ingredients to the role:
  • Design, deploy, and manage production workloads on AWS (Mainly Compute - EKS, EC2 , Lambdas).
  • Lead and operate EKS clusters across multiple environments, ensuring scalability, performance, and reliability.
  • Implement and maintain automation, monitoring, and alerting using tools like Terraform, Grafana, Prometheus, and Datadog.
  • Manage Linux-based infrastructure, including performance tuning, debugging, and kernel-level analysis.
  • Roll out and standardize ArgoCD and Argo Workflows as part of our GitOps and automation strategy.
  • Collaborate with development teams to design and operate microservices and event-driven architectures at scale.
  • Troubleshoot incidents, drive root-cause analysis, and contribute to postmortems.
  • Design, deploy, and manage HashiCorp Vault, implementing secret management, access policies, and integrations with workloads on EKS
What will you bring to the table?
  • Solid understanding of Linux systems administration, networking (DNS, TLS/SSL, HTTP), and container fundamentals.

  • Experience in designing multi-cluster EKS architectures or hybrid Kubernetes setups.

  • Familiarity with RBAC design, OIDC authentication, and Vault secret injection into workloads.

  • Experience designing distributed, event-driven systems and microservice architectures.

  • Familiarity with SRE practices, monitoring, automation, release engineering, and incident response.

  • Awareness of cloud security best practices and common threat mitigations.

  • Proficiency with Terraform and Helm for infrastructure and application automation.

  • Scripting or programming experience (Go preferred, Python or Bash also acceptable).
