Manager, Software Engineering (Infra Foundations)

Define and drive the vision and multi-quarter roadmap, tying foundational investments to critical, business-impacting outcomes while protecting space for tech-debt reduction and reliability work

Lead and mentor a team of infrastructure engineers, fostering a culture of ownership, collaboration, and technical excellence, and owning hiring, performance, and career growth

Partner with engineering leadership and stakeholders to align Infra Foundations priorities with broader infrastructure, platform, and security goals

Own the reliability and safety of the foundational layer: AWS account provisioning and bootstrapping, core networking (VPCs and interconnectivity), and human IAM access

Drive the team's automation charter, delivering frameworks that let other infra teams provision, update, and tear down complex stacks and whole environments safely on the existing IaC rails (GitHub, Spacelift)

Steward critical operational programs including AWS quota management and notifications, AMI patch management, and Ansible-based configuration management

Establish and hold the operational bar: SLAs for IAM requests, quota alerting thresholds, incident response for networking changes, and automated validation of provisioning and teardown

Partner with Security to enforce least-privilege IAM and ensure recommended permissions are adopted across teams

Drive smooth adoption of Infra Foundations frameworks and best practices through self-service tooling, documentation, and knowledge sharing
