Senior Cloud Platform Engineer (AWS)

Headquarters: Jacksonville, FL URL: https://breezy.hr/

Location:  Remote (US) Team:  Engineering • Platform/Infrastructure About Breezy HR 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 / 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.

Our stack

Backend:  Node.js microservices Data:  MongoDB (self-hosted) and Redis Hosting/Orchestration:  AWS IaC:  Terraform and/or AWS CDK Tooling:  Git-based CI/CD; common observability suites

Proven  CI/CD  ownership for multi-service SaaS, including safe rollbacks and release hygiene.
