Serve as a technical focal point for troubleshooting, system deep-dives, and resolving infrastructure bottlenecks across both Linux and Windows operating systems
Ensure global cloud environments continuously meet and exceed stringent security guidelines and technical compliance frameworks, specifically PCI and SOC2
Lead incident response and root-cause analysis, and champion blameless postmortems and error-budget discipline across the team
Provide technical leadership and guidance to junior and mid-level engineers, helping to scale the infrastructure team's overall technical competency

Demonstrate deep production-level technical experience using AWS, Terraform, Atmos, and Python (or equivalent automation language - Bash/Go)
Demonstrate hands-on expertise with a modern observability stack (Datadog or equivalent: APM/distributed tracing, logs, metrics, RUM), including defining SLOs/SLIs and managing monitors-as-code
Leverage production experience with service mesh and L7 proxies (Envoy/Istio) and Kubernetes ingress in high-throughput request paths
Utilize advanced operational knowledge of Kubernetes/EKS, Helm, and overall container orchestration
Apply strong secrets-management and rotation practices (Infisical, Vault, or AWS Secrets Manager) in a PCI/SOC2 context
Showcase hands-on experience working with managed streaming data infrastructure via AWS MSK (Kafka) alongside various SQL and NoSQL AWS managed database solutions, including Amazon Aurora
Maintain a strong understanding of cloud networking architecture, security protocols, and firewalls
Exhibit expert competency managing, configuring, and troubleshooting Linux (and Windows where applicable) server environments
Use excellent written and verbal communication skills to translate complex infrastructure concepts into clear, actionable technical documentation

While not required, these are a plus:
