We are sharing a full-time opportunity for an experienced Director of Infrastructure Engineering with deep expertise in AWS, GCP, infrastructure as code, CI/CD, platform engineering, reliability, security, and technical leadership to build and scale infrastructure supporting production AI systems.
The role combines hands-on infrastructure engineering with strategic leadership across cloud architecture, developer platforms, observability, reliability, security, and engineering operations.
Key Responsibilities
Cloud Infrastructure & Platform Strategy
- Own multi-cloud architecture across AWS and GCP
- Define infrastructure strategy around scalability, reliability, security, and cost
- Build and maintain infrastructure as code using Terraform or comparable tooling
- Develop reusable platform abstractions, automation, and internal infrastructure tooling
- Improve developer productivity while maintaining strong operational standards
Reliability, Delivery & Observability
- Design and improve CI/CD systems for fast, reliable, and secure software delivery
- Establish SLOs, error budgets, incident-response processes, and on-call practices
- Lead disaster-recovery and resilience initiatives
- Build observability across metrics, logs, traces, alerting, and operational signals
- Use production data and postmortems to improve reliability and reduce deployment risk
Security, Operations & Leadership
- Embed security into cloud architecture, platform tooling, and software-delivery workflows
- Support compliance with frameworks such as ISO 27001, SOC 2, and CMMC
- Lead and develop a high-performing Infrastructure or Platform Engineering team
- Mentor engineers and influence infrastructure strategy across technical and executive stakeholders
- Balance long-term platform strategy with hands-on production and incident-management responsibilities
Ideal Profile

- Deep expertise with AWS, GCP, or multi-cloud production environments
- Strong Terraform or comparable infrastructure-as-code experience
- Strong knowledge of Kubernetes and containerised infrastructure
- Experience designing and operating modern CI/CD platforms
- Demonstrated success building highly available, observable, and resilient systems
- Strong understanding of infrastructure security, compliance, and operational risk
- Experience scaling infrastructure and engineering teams in fast-moving environments
- Excellent written and verbal communication and ability to influence technical strategy
- AI/ML infrastructure or large-scale data-platform experience is highly valuable
- Familiarity with model training, inference, evaluation, or data-pipeline infrastructure is advantageous
- Experience with FedRAMP, GovCloud, CMMC Level 2, or comparable regulated environments is beneficial
Engagement Details
- Full-time engagement
- Fully remote
- Base compensation: $350,000–$500,000/year
- Work will involve AWS, GCP, infrastructure as code, CI/CD, observability, reliability engineering, platform tooling, security, and technical leadership
