🎯 The Role
We're looking for a Staff Infrastructure Engineer to own the foundation Tabs runs on: our AWS environment, how we ship software, and how we know when something is wrong. You'll set infrastructure direction for the company as a hands-on individual contributor, partnering with our platform team, our product engineers, and the product teams who build on what you build. Tabs is building, not maintaining. We're at the point where infrastructure is becoming a real investment area, and the decisions made in this seat will shape how the whole engineering org ships for years. Payments, billing, and revenue for high-growth companies come with real compliance requirements. The goal is to build it correctly, keep it easy to maintain, and evolve it as we grow.
✅ Key Responsibilities
AWS infrastructure direction and platform evolution, including the migration from ECS/Fargate toward a more modern, scalable platform
Infrastructure as code and container foundations, with Terraform and Docker at the core
CI/CD systems with a strong emphasis on developer experience, safety, and automation (GitHub Actions today; maturing CD tomorrow)
Ephemeral environments and preview deploys to speed iteration and increase confidence in changes
Observability standards across metrics, logs, and tracing, including alert hygiene, dashboards, and SLO development
Incident response, on-call, postmortems, and the reliability culture that surrounds them
📌 Required Qualifications
8+ years in software engineering, infrastructure, or SRE roles
Experience in one or more modern languages such as TypeScript, Python, or Rust with a track record of writing production-quality scripts, tools, and services, and still hands-on today
Deep hands-on experience running production workloads on AWS, including container platforms such as ECS/Fargate
Expertise with infrastructure as code using Terraform, and ownership of Docker and Git workflows in production
Solid working knowledge of Kubernetes and Helm
Experience designing and running CI/CD systems such as GitHub Actions, including build parallelization and developer experience improvements
Deep experience with observability tooling across metrics, logs, tracing, and alerting, including defining SLIs, SLOs, and error budgets
Experience proposing and evaluating multiple architectures, making trade-offs that fit the company's stage, and driving infrastructure decisions across teams
Comfortable navigating ambiguity and setting direction in a fast-moving environment
Experience mentoring engineers and shaping infrastructure practices across an engineering org
⭐ Desirable Experience
Experience owning broad infrastructure surface area at a high-growth startup, including as the primary infrastructure or SRE owner
Experience operating Kafka or a similar distributed messaging system at scale
Experience building developer tooling that engineers adopt and rely on
🎁 Benefits
Competitive compensation and equity
Unlimited PTO
Up to 100% employer covered monthly healthcare premium (medical, dental, vision)
Lunch provided via Sharebite, plus dinner for any later in office days.
