What you'll do;

  • Support the application teams: turn around infra requests (permissions, roles, service setup, project peering) so product engineers stay focused on shipping.

  • Own CI/CD and deployments: maintain and extend our GitHub Actions workflows and help migrate toward a dedicated CD tool with proper permissioning — the goal is fully automated, locked-down deploys via service accounts, no direct engineer access to production.

  • Build and maintain infrastructure as code: author and update Terraform modules for new and existing services across GCP environments.

  • Run Kubernetes the right way: manage service deployments via Helm (we're on Helm 4) keep async workloads healthy on Dagster.

  • Unify observability (likely first project): consolidate today's per-team alerting into a single view — system-to-system dashboards plus incident alerting that routes upstream service/vendor failures to the right impacted teams and on-call rotations.

  • Advance resilience: help move us toward a fully region- and cloud-agnostic posture so services can pick up and move if something fails.

  • Strengthen security & access: apply IAM, secrets management, least privilege, and auditability; contribute to SOC 2 readiness.

  • Automate with AI: build agent skills / agents.md so routine tasks (provisioning access, simple changes) can be handled by an agent instead of human engineering hours, and use AI to reason through bigger problems.
What Success looks like;

First 30 days. Ramp on the stack (GCP, Kubernetes/Helm, Terraform, GitHub Actions, Dagster). Meet the application and security stakeholders, and start reliably handling application-team requests.

First 90 days. Operating independently on the reactive workload and proactively creating/updating/managing infrastructure across GCP environments. On-call onboarding complete (Roby shadows then reverse-shadows your first shifts).

In 1 year. Delivered concrete platform improvements — new Terraform modules meeting app-team needs, upstream dependency upgrades, and a unified alerting/observability framework wired into incident reporting and on-call. Trusted to take significant infra projects off the lead's plate.

What you bring;

  • Strong software-engineering fundamentals in at least one production language (Python, Go, TypeScript, or Rust); Python especially valued, plus comfort scripting and working in the shell.

  • Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure and core cloud services, especially GCP (AWS/Azure transferable).

  • Experience operating large-scale Kubernetes production systems.

  • Experience with Infrastructure as Code, especially Terraform.

  • Familiarity with CI/CD systems, especially GitHub Actions or Octopus Deploy.

  • Ability to debug production issues using logs, metrics, traces, shell tools, and source code.

  • Security and access-control fundamentals: IAM, secrets management, least privilege, and auditability.

  • Clear written communication around incidents, design decisions, and operational procedures.
Bonus points
  • Supporting SOC 2 controls - evidence collection, access reviews, change management, or audit readiness.

  • Observability with Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, Honeycomb, or similar.

  • Improving developer experience through internal tooling, templates, scripts, or platform APIs.

  • Incident response experience, including postmortems and follow-up remediation.

  • Experience with Dagster, Helm 3+, high-scale CD tooling (Bazel, Octopus), or AI/agent-assisted ops.

  • Basic web3 / DeFi literacy (transactions, wallets) and genuine curiosity about onchain — the role doesn't touch chain directly, but the business is onchain.
