Lead Cloud DevOps Engineer (Oakland, CA Office)

MISUMI Americas | Oakland, CA (Onsite / Local Candidates Required) Base Salary: $180,000 – $220,000 USD Depending on Experience

MISUMI Americas builds the digital infrastructure behind how the world's hardware gets designed and manufactured. We're looking for a Lead Cloud DevOps Engineer to take ownership of the AWS infrastructure that runs our multi-regional, global platform — someone who wants to be hands-on with CloudFormation and Node.js every day, not just architecting on a whiteboard.

This is a builder's role. You'll lead infrastructure projects end to end — architecture, implementation, debugging, optimization — while writing the Node.js tools and services that keep deployment, monitoring, and platform operations running smoothly. You'll work closely with engineering, security, and product teams to keep our systems reliable, secure, scalable, and cost-efficient as we grow.

This position is based in Oakland, CA. Candidates must be located in Oakland or the greater Bay Area and able to work onsite as required.

Design, build, and maintain AWS infrastructure using CloudFormation as our primary Infrastructure-as-Code tool

Lead infrastructure projects from planning through execution, mentoring and guiding a small team

Build and maintain Node.js–based tools and services for automation, deployment workflows, monitoring, and platform operations

Design, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines for infrastructure and application deployments

Set up and manage logging, monitoring, and alerting across our AWS environments

Perform infrastructure upgrades and improvements while minimizing downtime

Troubleshoot and resolve complex production issues across infrastructure, applications, and CI/CD systems
