Cloud Architect, Trilogy (Remote) - $100,000/year USD

Overview

You're a DevOps engineer who prioritizes prevention over reaction. If you find satisfaction in dissecting convoluted legacy systems, architecting streamlined solutions, and automating repetitive processes out of existence, this position will align with your strengths. We need a DevOps and AWS infrastructure specialist comfortable operating in demanding environments where 99.9% uptime is the baseline expectation. Your work will span a portfolio of acquired products—each with unique characteristics—as you migrate them into a unified, scalable AWS environment and establish monitoring and automation frameworks that minimize incident frequency.

Most organizations ask you to support a single technology stack. We're asking you to unify and refine several stacks without causing disruptions. Where others segment databases, we consolidate them strategically to improve cost efficiency and simplify management across our portfolio. This role isn't suited for someone content to oversee static infrastructure; it's designed for an engineer who encounters fragmentation and immediately envisions a superior architecture.

Your scope includes infrastructure migrations, AI-powered automation, performance optimization, database transitions, and cost management. You'll diagnose and resolve system failures, orchestrate cloud migrations with minimal downtime, and leverage AI/ML-driven workflows to automate significant portions of operational work. You'll hold genuine decision-making authority over infrastructure—no prolonged waits for sign-off from individuals disconnected from technical realities.

If you're a self-directed problem-solver energized by unraveling complex systems and achieving operational excellence, this role offers the challenge you seek. If you require constant guidance, struggle with diverse technology environments, or prefer greenfield projects to imposing structure on disorder, this position won't suit you. If you're prepared to own a high-impact infrastructure function with opportunities to build, refine, and automate at scale, submit your application now!

What You Will Be Doing

• Orchestrating and executing sophisticated infrastructure transformations, including transitions from legacy platforms to AWS cloud environments and lift-and-shift migration projects
• Architecting and deploying monitoring strategies while creating automation for monitoring systems, software releases, and operational processes
• Conducting system observation, backup operations, incident management, database migrations, database configuration, and cost reduction initiatives
  
  

• Spending your time in Jira and perpetual status updates - we prioritize individuals who deliver solutions, not just document issues
• Preserving obsolete systems without end - you'll be authorized to pursue substantive enhancements
• Waiting through bureaucratic approval processes - you'll possess the authority to implement immediate remediations during incidents
• Operating within restrictive technical boundaries - this position demands both comprehensive knowledge and specialized expertise
• Advocating for budget to execute essential upgrades - we recognize the value of infrastructure investment
  
  

• Drive reliability and standardization of cloud infrastructure across our growing product portfolio by implementing robust monitoring, automation, and AWS best practices.
  
  

• Deep AWS infrastructure expertise (this is our primary platform - other cloud experience alone won't cut it)
• Experience scripting with Python and Bash for day-to-day administration operations
• Experience managing and migrating production databases with multiple engines (including MySql, Postgres, Oracle, MS-SQL)
• Experience with infrastructure automation (Terraform, Ansible, or CloudFormation)
• Linux systems administration expertise
