Build and scale secure, reliable backend services and web applications. Develop identity and access management features, improve AWS infrastructure and database performance, harden APIs and distributed systems, and contribute to incident response and observability. Own engineering problems from design through production, partner with security teams on remediation, mentor engineers, and solve complex workflow and scalability challenges.

Own the architecture, security, segmentation, connectivity, and operations of a multi-region AWS network supporting regulated financial-services platforms. Lead cloud routing, partner VPN and Direct Connect connectivity, zero-trust access, Terraform-based infrastructure, observability, disaster recovery, and incident escalation. Partner with Security on compliance-driven designs, apply AI-native operational workflows, establish standards, and mentor engineers.

Build and maintain high-fidelity security detections across SIEM, cloud, endpoints, and identity systems. Investigate alerts, lead incident response, threat-hunt for sophisticated and insider threats, operationalize threat intelligence, develop SOAR playbooks, improve logging, and measure detection effectiveness against MITRE ATT&CK. The role also partners with MDR and incident response providers and conducts purple-team exercises.

Leads the Cloud Infrastructure and Platform team, managing engineers while setting roadmap and architecture for AWS infrastructure. Responsibilities include Kubernetes and Terraform platforms, disaster recovery, CI/CD, supply-chain security, observability, incident response, developer self-service, cloud cost management, regulatory audits, and engineering mentorship.

Owns the reliability, performance, resilience, and cost of a multi-terabyte Aurora PostgreSQL estate. Leads multi-region disaster recovery, database segmentation, scaling architecture, upgrades, replication and change-data-capture systems, schema governance, observability, security controls, incident response, automation, and engineering mentorship. Partners across platform, data, security, and product teams while setting technical direction and delivering multi-quarter database programs.

Own platform reliability, performance, observability, and resilience for scalable backend systems. Mentor engineering teams on secure, performant coding practices; establish OpenTelemetry observability and service-level objectives; design and improve incident response processes; and implement automated testing. Collaborate with engineering leaders, product managers, and cross-functional teams on shared infrastructure and challenging technical solutions. The role also contributes to cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, tabletop exercises, and modern distributed systems across the organization.

Build and improve resilient, scalable backend systems as part of the Platform team. Responsibilities include implementing observability with OpenTelemetry, defining SLOs, owning incident response processes and follow-ups, mentoring teams on secure and reliable coding, and applying automated testing. The role involves working with Java, Spring Boot, microservices, distributed systems, Kubernetes, cloud infrastructure, and CI/CD while collaborating with engineering leadership and cross-functional teams.
