Your Mission
We need a senior, hands-on engineer who can walk into an unfamiliar system, break it down quickly, and deliver a working solution. You'll design, build, and improve cloud services and the platforms they run on, with a strong focus on AWS, security, and reliability. You'll own work end-to-end with a high-degree of autonomy- planning, building, testing, rolling out, and supporting what you ship.
What You'll Do- Own delivery: take a problem from "unclear" to "done," including design, implementation, rollout, and follow-through.
- Build cloud infrastructure using infrastructure as code (Terraform preferred) and improve delivery pipelines.
- Support web services and APIs; help teams integrate with identity, storage, and networking.
- Package and deploy services using containers; operate and troubleshoot Kubernetes workloads; use Helm for repeatable deployments.
- Design for least privilege, safe network boundaries, and secure configurations; investigate and fix security findings in cloud workloads.
- Ensure services have useful logs, metrics, and traces - preferring OpenTelemetry-style approaches (e.g., SigNoz).
- Remove manual steps with scripts and tooling; improve reliability through repeatable processes and practical guardrails.
- Profile and tune applications and databases; improve latency and stability with measured changes.
- Share patterns, write clear docs, and help others learn - especially around AWS practices and secure delivery.
CORE SKILLS
- Strong AWS experience across identity, networking, compute, storage, and managed services.
- Solid web engineering fundamentals (HTTP, APIs, auth flows) and ability to debug distributed systems.
- Deep understanding of identity and access management and authentication patterns (e.g., SAML/OAuth).
- Practical data and database architecture knowledge - design, performance, migrations, and operations.
- Strong networking and security fundamentals; ability to respond to findings and improve configurations.
DELIVERY & OPERATIONS
- Infrastructure as code (Terraform preferred) and experience building repeatable deployments.
- Containers, Kubernetes, and Helm - build, deploy, and troubleshoot in production.
- Observability with logs/metrics/traces; familiarity with OpenTelemetry concepts or implementations.
- Scripting and automation (Bash/Python/TypeScript) to improve CI/CD workflows.
WAYS OF WORKING
- Self-motivated, proactive, and comfortable working independently.
- Strong critical thinking: you form hypotheses, test quickly, and communicate clearly.
- You finish what you start and keep stakeholders informed.
Nice to have
- Experience with serverless or event-driven AWS designs and automation workflows.
- Familiarity with Google Cloud (GCP) is a plus.
- Threat modeling and hands-on security review/remediation experience.
- Knowledge of pharmaceutical R&D processes or a science background (preferred, not required).
