Senior DevOps Engineer
LocalStack - the Local Cloud Sandbox for Developers and AI Agents
✅ What you will be working on/responsible for
- Own the internal cloud infrastructure and serve as the primary point of contact for cloud operations and infrastructure requests.
- Manage and continuously improve our multi-account cloud environment, ensuring security, governance, and compliance best practices are consistently applied.
- Support and maintain compliance with
SOC 2 Type II
ISO 27001
, ensuring audit evidence is prepared continuously rather than only during audit periods.
- Operate and improve our identity and access management, including SSO, MFA, permissions, and joiner/mover/leaver processes.
- Maintain and monitor self-hosted internal services, ensuring they meet agreed service levels and that vulnerabilities are tracked and resolved efficiently.
- Monitor the security and health of our cloud environment through continuous posture management and proactive risk identification.
- Own infrastructure cost management for the services under your responsibility and help other teams proactively identify cost or reliability risks before they become issues.
- Collaborate with engineering teams to improve the reliability, scalability, and operational excellence of our cloud platform.
✅ Experience we expect you to bring to the role
- Deep AWS experience at org level: Organizations, Control Tower, multi-account landing zones, IAM/SCPs, Security Hub/GuardDuty, VPC and multi-AZ networking
- IaC as the only way infrastructure gets created - module design, state management, review and promotion between environments. Tool-agnostic, but real depth in at least one (Terraform/OpenTofu, CDK, Pulumi)
- Understands how to evolve existing systems toward compliance - can look at a running estate and work out what has to change, in what order, to satisfy SOC 2 / ISO 27001. Having been through an audit or certification is a bonus, not a requirement
- Internal workforce identity and access: IdP-backed SSO/MFA, centralised access management, automated joiner/mover/leaver
- Self-hosting and operating shared internal tooling that other teams depend on -
deploy, upgrade, back up, own the uptime
- Observability and alerting design, plus on-call for a distributed team
- Cloud cost management / FinOps fundamentals
- Azure is a nice-to-have extension, not a requirement - AWS depth is what matters, but the estate is going multi-cloud so appetite for it counts
- Bash, Python and/or Go for tooling. Comfortable with ambiguity in a remote-first environment, and happy being the first hire in a function
