About the Role

Join the platform engineering team at a seed-stage software company building referral and partner growth tools for businesses. You will own core cloud infrastructure, deployment systems, and reliability, helping the team deliver product changes safely and efficiently.

What You'll Do

  • Architect, deploy, and operate AWS infrastructure across compute, messaging, storage, networking, and observability.
  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines that support automated deployments from commit to production.
  • Manage production PostgreSQL, including configuration, performance tuning, migrations, and backup strategies.
  • Make pragmatic tradeoffs between delivery speed and foundational system quality.
  • Collaborate with stakeholders and product teams to shape architecture and technical direction.
  • Explore AI-assisted development tools and incorporate them into build and deployment workflows where useful.
  • Investigate complex distributed systems issues and deliver reliable solutions.

What We're Looking For

  • Typically 5 to 10+ years of relevant experience, including hands-on ownership of production infrastructure.
  • Deep AWS expertise and strong Infrastructure as Code experience with Terraform or a similar tool.
  • Solid understanding of distributed systems concepts, including ordering, idempotency, retries, at-least-once delivery, and partial failure recovery.
  • Production PostgreSQL experience with connection pooling, migrations, performance optimization, and backup and restore.
  • Ability to read and understand TypeScript and Node.js codebases, with familiarity with NestJS.
  • Experience operating high-traffic, highly available systems and strong independent debugging skills.
  • Comfort using AI coding tools while maintaining strong technical judgment and problem-solving skills.
  • Collaborative communication style and a genuine interest in the product and its users.
