Job description
Responsibilities
Own and evolve our CI/CD platform: GitHub Actions with self-hosted runners (RunsOn), plus an in-progress migration and refactor of our Jenkins setup ("Jenkins Next").
Build and maintain Infrastructure as Code across AWS using Terraform / Terragrunt / Terramate, following reusable component patterns (CloudPosse-style).
Design secure-by-default delivery pipelines: branch protection and PR approval rulesets, secrets management (SOPS), and prod-approval flows for critical paths.
Drive our move from IAM users and long-lived access keys toward IAM roles, and help close foundational security gaps (open ports, unmanaged credentials, missing guardrails).
Work with Kubernetes (EKS), Helm, and ArgoCD, and support our observability stack (Grafana, Prometheus) and developer platform (Backstage).
Review and improve existing components — Terraform, pipelines, AWS infra — not only build new ones, and raise the bar on how the team delivers.
Share the support/triage load and help reduce it through better automation and tooling.
Requirements
Strong AWS experience and deep hands-on CI/CD expertise (GitHub Actions and/or Jenkins).
Solid Infrastructure as Code background with Terraform (Terragrunt / Terramate a plus).
Real Kubernetes / EKS experience, including Helm and GitOps (ArgoCD).
A security-conscious mindset — comfortable reasoning about IAM, secrets, network exposure, and least-privilege access (a DevSecOps lean is a strong plus).
The ability to design a solution, then adapt gracefully when constraints change ("now make it global", "now cost is the primary driver") — digging for context rather than getting flustered.
Sound judgment on edge cases and incidents: traffic spikes 10x, a region goes down — how do you approach the change and handle the outage?
Effective, deliberate use of AI tooling, with genuine understanding of what it produces and the ability to explain trade-offs it can't.

Prepare your application
Use the description above to assess your fit for Fliff. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.
Match requirements to evidence
Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.
Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.
Check the working arrangement
Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.
Review before submitting
Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.
Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.
Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
