About the role

About the role:

We're seeking an experienced Staff DevOps Engineer to help design, automate, and scale secure, compliant cloud infrastructure supporting containerized and AI-powered applications. The ideal candidate thrives in fast-paced, compliance-driven environments (SOC 2, HIPAA, or similar), and is passionate about Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC), CI/CD, and enabling developer velocity through automation and best practices.

This role will report to the Senior Director of Product Engineering and is expected to travel no more than 5% of the time.

In this position you will:

    • Develop and optimize CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions for secure, automated deployments
    • Implement, maintain, and monitor containerized applications (Docker, Kubernetes, ECS, or EKS)
    • Automate cloud resource provisioning, scaling, and governance with reusable modules and policy-as-code
    • Manage and monitor infrastructure for performance, reliability, and cost optimization
    • Contribute to and enforce secure DevOps best practices (least privilege, secrets management, audit logging, vulnerability scanning)
    • Support platform integration for AI/ML workloads, container orchestration, and environment isolation
  • Mentorship & Ongoing Learning
    • Actively seeks and applies emerging practices in cloud infrastructure, security, and AI/ML tooling; adapts approaches in response to shifts in compliance requirements, platform needs, or organizational priorities
    • Mentors peers on DevOps best practices and contributes to team-wide standards
    • Collaborate closely with engineering and security teams to ensure compliance with frameworks such as SOC 2, HIPAA, and NIST 800-53
  • Other duties as assigned

About you:

This position is a perfect fit for someone who stays current in a fast-moving field — bringing lessons from new tools, frameworks.
