Summary
We are looking for a Senior software engineer who is passionate about solving infrastructure challenges through software engineering and automation. In this role, you will design, develop, and maintain scalable automation frameworks that streamline cloud infrastructure provisioning, configuration management, and operational processes.
You will build programmatic infrastructure solutions using Python, Jinja2, and Terraform, generating and managing Infrastructure as Code (IaC) at scale. You will also leverage Puppet for configuration management and develop PowerShell-based automation to support and optimize Windows environments.
This is a highly technical, coding-focused position. The ideal candidate is a software-minded engineer who writes clean, maintainable, and testable code every day—not just ad hoc scripts. You should be comfortable designing reusable automation components, applying software development best practices, and driving operational excellence through automation across complex cloud and hybrid environments.
