Breezy HR is a remote-first, hiring platform built for small and mid-sized businesses. Thousands of teams trust us to streamline recruiting from first touch to signed offer, and we’re passionate about delivering a fast, delightful experience for every candidate and every hiring manager.
Why we’re hiring
We need a senior hands‑on owner to stabilize, secure, and evolve our cloud platform. You’ll be a primary decision-maker for AWS architecture, reliability, CI/CD, observability, and cost posture, partnering closely with the directors, developers, product, and customer success teams.
What you’ll own (hands‑on + strategic)
- AWS architecture & operations: Own production infrastructure end‑to‑end (networking, compute, storage, IAM, routing, scaling, backups, DR).
- IaC & environments: Standardize and evolve Infrastructure‑as‑Code (Terraform or AWS CDK); codify dev/stage/prod with repeatable patterns and least‑privilege IAM.
- CI/CD: Keep deployments fast and safe (build, test, deploy, rollback); drive progressive delivery where it makes sense.
- Observability & incident response: Ensure logs/metrics/traces + actionable dashboards; lead incident command and postmortems.
- Security & compliance: Own cloud security baselines and support SOC 2 / ISO 27001 / GDPR needs.
- Cost & performance: Right‑size infra, track spend, and implement guardrails to prevent regressions.
- Technical leadership: Document the platform, unblock developers, mentor peers, and cultivate cross‑training so nothing is a single point of failure.
- On‑call: Alternate with others on the infra on‑call rotation and train others as needed.

- Hosting/Orchestration: AWS
- IaC: Terraform and/or AWS CDK

- 5+ yearsInfrastructure‑as‑Code (Terraform, CDK) and environment automation.
- ProvenCI/CD ownership for multi‑service SaaS, including safe rollbacks and release hygiene.
