What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll be a key contributor in designing, delivering, and supporting the cloud foundations that power our products and internal platforms, with a strong focus on Python and TypeScript based AWS serverless engineering, event-driven architectures, and modern identity patterns.

You’ll be expected to work with seniority from day one, owning problems end-to-end and driving solutions proactively.

• Implementing modern identity and access patterns including OpenID Connect (OIDC), IAM roles, and fine-grained permission boundaries
• Enhancing CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions
• Collaborating effectively with engineering, product, and security teams; communicating decisions, trade-offs, and risks with clarity
• Taking full ownership of tasks from design through delivery, operating independently and making sound technical judgments
• Supporting incident response, including escalation, resolution, and post-incident improvements
• Documenting systems, processes, and technical decisions with precision
• Handling context switching effectively when priorities shift
• Reducing technical debt and improving operational maturity across environments
• Maintaining a strong security and compliance mindset in all designs and implementations
• Stepping up during high-pressure events, escalations, and critical incidents
• Ensuring reliable availability during agreed working hours
