Leveraging the HashiCorp (Terraform, Consul, Nomad, Vault, Packer) suite and in-house tooling, our team enables streamlined workflows, automation, and impactful improvements to our cloud hosted infrastructure environment.

We are seeking a mid-level engineer who will play a key role in driving high-impact initiatives that elevate the operational excellence of our broader organization.

  • Work cross-functionally with Internal Platform Engineering teams to align infrastructure solutions with technical and business requirements.
  • Contribute to multiple concurrent projects, focusing on key business initiatives, abstractions, migrations, and performance optimization.
  • Review and test platform solutions, make recommendations, and contribute to technical proposals.
  • Create and maintain detailed documentation of infrastructure configurations, procedures, and troubleshooting guides.
  • Effectively leverage project management fundamentals, identifying and collaborating with stakeholders, determining scope, making suggestions, and managing expectations.

  • Take an active role in recommending and designing internal systems to support product, engineering, and security teams
  • Create tools for automating deployment, monitoring, and operations of the platform
  • Recommend improvements to the systems the team builds and supports

Within 90 days, you will:

  • Drive the research and testing of systems to help meet the needs of our Engineering teams, including writing RFCs to show what thoughts and considerations went into the selection of the system
  • Build, deploy, and support new platform components
  • Help develop and deliver abstractions, migrations, tooling, and process to support our systems
  • Provide occasional after-hours support for in-flight team initiatives in the event of an outage

  • You have experience using source management tools like Git
  • You are willing and eager to learn new technologies and methodologies
  • You are a proficient collaborator and are able to effectively communicate across diverse teams and partners.

  • Experienced in working across a distributed team, able to consistently deliver quality results when given a high level of independence and autonomy.
