Why This Role Matters

This isn't just another engineering role. As a Senior Software Engineer and Subject Matter Expert (SME), you'll have the opportunity to shape cloud strategy, influence secure architectures, and drive innovation at scale. Your expertise will directly impact how critical systems adopt multi-cloud infrastructure, DevSecOps automation, and advanced cloud orchestration.

We're looking for a hands-on leader who thrives at the intersection of software engineering, cloud security, and systems design. If you want to define best practices, mentor engineers, and own technical direction—while working with cutting-edge tools like Crossplane and Terraform—this role gives you the platform to do it.

What You'll Do

• Architect and implement secure, scalable multi-cloud solutions across AWS, Azure, and beyond.
• Build and optimize Infrastructure as Code (IaC) frameworks using Terraform, Crossplane, and automation pipelines.
• Own the design and evolution of CI / CD pipelines and DevSecOps workflows in complex, mission-critical environments.
• Administer and scale Linux-based platforms, containerized environments, and distributed services.
• Mentor and guide engineers, setting the standard for engineering excellence, while shaping the long-term technical vision.
• Partner with stakeholders to streamline cloud adoption, strengthen security, and drive automation-first strategies.
