What you need

  • 8+ years in Infrastructure TPM or related roles (cloud engineering, SRE, or infra-focused software engineering)
  • Hands-on experience in cloud-native architectures and distributed systems (AWS, GCP, or similar)
  • Deep technical expertise across infrastructure components - storage (S3, RDS, DynamoDB), caching (Redis), search (OpenSearch), and event-driven systems (Kafka)
  • Track record driving large-scale infrastructure programs such as migrations, cost optimization, encryption/key management, and reliability initiatives
  • Strong cross-functional program management skills, including coordinating multi-team engineering orgs and tracking performance bottlenecks
  • Proven stakeholder management, with experience engaging external partners and translating complex technical challenges into clear executive-level communications

Nice to have

  • A track record of setting up and scaling TPM functions or program management practices within an engineering organization
  • Experience working on high-visibility enterprise security and compliance programs (SOC 2, FedRAMP, encryption key management)
  • Infrastructure incident management and analysis experience
  • Experience working with external enterprise partners on technical programs (e.g., Apple, AWS, Google)
  • Background in software engineering or site reliability engineering (SWE/SRE-to-TPM career path)

What you get

  • Equity to employees
  • Health, dental, and vision coverage
  • Retirement benefits with company contributions
  • Parental leave and reproductive or family planning support
  • Mental health and wellness benefits
  • Paid time off

Worth weighing

  • No specific mention of the tech stack beyond cloud-native architectures and distributed systems
  • Role may involve high-pressure situations given the focus on critical infrastructure projects
  • The requirement for candidates to keep cameras on during video interviews may not suit everyone
