Job description
As a Senior AWS Infrastructure Engineer with our SF Bay Area client, you will be the engineer keeping their mid-peninsula engineering organization running, owning AWS systems, monitoring, lab equipment, and the internal IT services that engineering depends on every day. You will work hands-on across Linux administration, build pipelines, virtualization, AWS, lab operations, and tier-1 internal support, and partner closely with our 5G DevOps counterpart in Romania on shared infrastructure standards. This is a broad, hands-on role for someone energized by being the person engineers come to when things need to work.
RESPONSIBILITIES
- Architect with Purpose: Design cloud-native infrastructure in AWS that scales seamlessly across regions and workloads.
- Automate Relentlessly: Build Terraform modules and tooling to make infrastructure creation fast, safe, and repeatable.
- Engineer for Reliability: Implement fault-tolerant, self-healing systems to minimize downtime and maximize performance.
- Secure from the Start: Embed IAM, networking, and observability into every layer of the stack.
- Optimize and Evolve: Continuously refine cost, performance, and deployment workflows as we scale.
Required Skills
- 3–5 years of experience building and managing AWS environments.
- Deep knowledge of Terraform and Infrastructure-as-Code best practices.
- Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, containerization (Docker), and monitoring stacks.
- A systems thinker who thrives on structure, scalability, and clean automation.
- Curiosity, initiative, and a drive to build things that just work.
Why You’ll Love Working Here:
- Build foundational infrastructure that powers cutting-edge AI products.
- Work with a brilliant, passionate team that values both speed and precision.
- Competitive salary, equity, and career growth opportunities in a fast-scaling startup.
- Flexible, trust-based culture-autonomy encouraged, bureaucracy not included.
- Great benefits package and a prime Cambridge office location.
SHOULD HAVE ATTRIBUTES/SKILLS
- - Experience coordinating with external IT vendors and managing compliance-adjacent IT projects (security audits, vendor management).
- - Experience operating in a regulated or compliance-sensitive engineering environment.
- - Exposure to early-stage or high-growth startup environments.
NICE TO HAVE ATTRIBUTES/SKILLS
- - Experience supporting firmware or embedded engineering teams, including hardware-in-the-loop (HITL) test integration into build pipelines.
- - Familiarity with 5G or LTE telecommunications at a working level.
- - Operational experience with lab equipment, test rigs, or robotics infrastructure in an engineering organization.
- - Working familiarity with code quality and static analysis tooling (SonarScanner, Pytest).
- - Familiarity with Elasticsearch operations (client’s legacy systems; may require migration or retirement).
