You will partner closely with engineering leads, security, and architecture to build a modern, well-governed cloud environment. This role reports into the Head of Engineering.

Tech Stack:

We utilize AWS as our cloud platform, enabling scalable and secure infrastructure. Our infrastructure is managed using Terraform, with Docker and AWS Lambda and Fargate for containerization and deployment. We rely on GitLab for our CI/CD processes.
