About You

You have strong hands-on experience building backend services and working with production AWS infrastructure. You are comfortable owning cloud infrastructure end to end and independently investigating issues across IAM, ECS, networking, and logging. You have experience developing APIs in Python or Java and using Python to build backend services, internal tools, and automation.

You use Infrastructure as Code to create, manage, and evolve reliable cloud environments. You understand CI/CD workflows and can troubleshoot GitLab pipelines, runners, and deployment failures. You have practical knowledge of authentication, cloud security, and networking, and can debug problems across these areas. You are comfortable supporting security and compliance audits by finding evidence and explaining AWS configurations to auditors.

You have worked with Claude agents and understand the fundamentals of plugins, sub-agents, context management, and evaluations. You work collaboratively, take ownership of problems, and are interested in learning, growing, and leading by example.

Requirements

Around 5 years of industry experience in software engineering, backend development, or platform engineering. Strong hands-on production experience with AWS, including IAM, ECS, networking, and logging, with the ability to independently troubleshoot issues. Experience managing infrastructure as code using AWS CDK (preferred) or CloudFormation.

Experience designing, building, and maintaining backend APIs in Python or Java. Strong Python skills for backend services, internal tools, scripting, and automation. Experience configuring and troubleshooting GitLab CI/CD pipelines and runners. Working knowledge of SSO, OAuth 2.0, and web application firewalls (WAF), including debugging authentication and security issues.
