About the role
What we're looking for
We need someone with 4+ years of experience in infrastructure engineering who has worked at modern tech companies and operated systems at scale. You should be comfortable in a highly collaborative, flat team environment where you'll embed with product engineering teams, and have a track record of designing and maintaining reliable distributed systems. Bonus points if you've worked at companies like Shopify, Cloudflare, Ramp, or similar high-growth developer tools/SaaS companies.
What you'll do:
- Design and maintain the distributed systems that power core parts of the WorkOS platform, handling millions of requests at scale
- Take ownership of infrastructure architecture decisions and drive reliability, scalability, and performance improvements end-to-end
- Work closely with product engineering teams in an embedded model—partnering on system design, contributing architectural perspective, and ensuring systems are built to scale
- Evolve AWS infrastructure and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) to scale systems intelligently and sustainably
- Build internal tools, shared infrastructure, and developer productivity systems (including CI) to support engineers across the company
- Participate in on-call rotation—responding to, resolving, and learning from production incidents
- Contribute to technical design reviews and architectural discussions, documenting your work and leveling up the team through thoughtful collaboration
