Software Engineer, Cloud Infrastructure

Job summary

Responsibilities

As a Software Engineer on Sierra’s Cloud Infrastructure team, you’ll own the foundation that every Sierra customer runs on. That includes our multi-tenant environments, where most of our customers and data live, and our isolated single-tenant environments for highly regulated enterprises.

• Design, build, and operate Sierra’s cloud infrastructure across AWS and GCP (and soon Azure) using Terraform and Kubernetes.
• Simplify and standardize our deployments so that adding a new region or environment is repeatable and predictable. We want to treat deployments like cattle, not pets.
• Stand up and operate new multi-tenant regions and single-tenant environments for customers with strict regulatory or isolation needs.
• Help build and run compliant environments, including our FedRAMP deployment.
• Own and improve deploys and releases across our fleet, investing in tooling and developer experience so engineers can ship quickly and safely.

What they're looking for

• 6+ years of hands-on software or infrastructure engineering experience, including building and operating production systems at scale.
• Broad infrastructure experience on at least one major cloud (AWS, GCP, or Azure). Breadth and fundamentals matter more than expertise in one specific cloud.
• Deep expertise in at least one layer of the stack, such as compute, orchestration, networking, or deploys, plus a real interest in owning the layers next to it.
• Hands-on experience with infrastructure as code (Terraform preferred) and container orchestration (Kubernetes).
• Strong coding skills and a bias toward automation and tooling. Go experience is a plus.
