Senior Platform Engineer

We are looking for a Senior Platform Engineer to be the founding member of […] 's Platform team — the function that owns our engineering foundations: infrastructure, security, CI/CD, and reliability.

Right now, our infrastructure runs on AWS with a combination of ECS, RDS, ElastiCache, SQS, and Step Functions. We have a strong contractor advising us, but we need a full-time engineer who can own this domain, execute on a significant infrastructure roadmap, and make every product team faster as a result.

This is a high-leverage, high-ownership role. You will be designing and building the platform that […] scales on for the next several years.

• Own and execute the AWS account split — separating production, staging, and development into clean isolated environments
• Lead the Aurora DB production migration with support from our infrastructure advisor
• Manage and evolve our ECS Fargate services, RDS clusters, ElastiCache, SQS queues, and ALB configuration
• Own Terraform — infrastructure as code, not click-ops

• Harden IAM — developer permission sets, production access controls, least-privilege enforcement
• Audit and lock down public S3 buckets
• Enable AWS Config and Security Hub across all accounts
• Own SOC 2 Type 2 readiness maintenance in partnership with Sprinto
• Coordinate external penetration test cadence

Own and improve our GitHub Actions CI/CD pipelines — build times, test reliability, deployment velocity B
