[Hiring] Infrastructure Engineer @Brightwell

Role Description

We’re looking for an Infrastructure Engineer to help bring our Azure infrastructure under Terraform and build the platform our product teams depend on. We have a running production environment; now we need someone to codify it, automate it, and make it self-service. You’ll split your time evenly between platform engineering and operational work, with a clear mandate to reduce the operational burden over time.

This is a hands-on technical role with a 50/50 split:

• Platform Engineering (50%):
  • Terraform existing Azure infrastructure. This is the primary mission from day one.
  • Use AI-assisted tools (Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot) to accelerate IaC development, automation scripting, and configuration management.
  • Automate repetitive tasks and build self-service tooling.
  • Improve observability and monitoring capabilities.
  • Create runbooks and technical documentation.
  • Collaborate with InfoSec on security and compliance controls.
  • Work with your manager (Engineering Manager, Infrastructure & Platform) on platform strategy and priorities.
• Operational Work (50%):
  • Support product teams with Azure infrastructure requests.
  • Manage Azure resources (VMs, Serverless Functions, App Services, SQL, networking, etc.).
  • Maintain CI/CD pipelines and troubleshoot deployment issues.
  • Apply patches, updates, and security fixes.
  • Monitor production systems health, performance, and costs.
  • Respond to incidents and participate in weekly on-call rotation.

Qualifications

• 5+ years in infrastructure/platform/DevOps roles.
• Strong Azure experience (App Services, Serverless, databases, networking, identity).
• Infrastructure-as-code: Terraform or Bicep.
• Monitoring: Azure Monitor, Application Insights, Datadog, Grafana, etc.
• CI/CD: Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, or similar.
• Scripting: TypeScript, PowerShell, Python, or Bash.
• Understanding of networking, DNS, SSL/TLS, mTLS.
• Experience leveraging modern AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot) to accelerate infrastructure automation and engineering workflows.
• Comfortable with on-call responsibilities.

Requirements

• Bonus Points:
• Fintech or regulated industry experience (SOC 2, PCI).
• Configuration management: Ansible, etc.
• GitOps practices.

Benefits

• Real Ownership & Impact: Take charge of your work with full autonomy — what you build ships to real users at real financial institutions around the world.
• Entrepreneurial Spirit: We welcome bold thinkers who are passionate about driving change, solving hard problems, and pushing innovation forward.
• Growth & Development: We invest in your career with professional development support and expanding opportunities as we scale.
• Flexible & Collaborative Team: Enjoy a remote-friendly environment and a tight-knit, inclusive team with opportunities for both social and professional engagement.
• Competitive Benefits: Medical, dental, vision, disability, 401(k) with match, flexible spending accounts, paid parental leave, paid vacation, and more.

On-Call Details

• Weekly on-call rotation (alternating with team).
• Typical escalations: deployment issues, performance problems, outages.
• Maintenance window reserved for once a month on Saturday, used as needed.
