Job Details



Position Title: Infrastructure Engineer - Secret Clearance required
Job Type: Full-Time




Overview


We're looking for an Infrastructure Engineer to join a highly technical team dedicated to maintaining the reliability, scalability, and operational integrity of large-scale software systems. In this hands-on role, you'll play a key part in managing infrastructure behind complex deployments-delivering tangible value through robust backend systems rather than direct customer interaction.


This role is forward-deployed, meaning you'll work closely with infrastructure and platform engineers to support real-world systems. While other teams focus on application-level functionality, you'll work across lower-level layers-on everything from cloud architecture to on-premises environments-ensuring platforms remain resilient and performant.




Key Responsibilities




  • Oversee day-to-day operations of critical systems, including observability (monitoring, alerting), configuration lifecycle, and system updates




  • Roll out new software products across production environments and manage the transition to updated infrastructure stacks




  • Investigate and resolve infrastructure issues, optimizing system performance and ensuring long-term stability




  • Automate routine operational processes and refine existing workflows to reduce manual overhead




  • Act as an escalation point for technical production issues, providing rapid diagnostics and resolution






Qualifications




  • Hands-on experience with containers, orchestration platforms (e.g., Kubernetes, Docker), and cloud services such as AWS or Azure




  • Solid understanding of on-prem infrastructure, Linux administration, and debugging distributed systems




  • Demonstrated ability to quickly grasp new tools and environments-we value adaptability and learning agility over deep specialization




  • A proactive approach to infrastructure reliability, emphasizing automation, ownership, and system health
