Ready to further your career in the fast-paced, exciting world of cyber security?

Arctic Wolf, with its unicorn valuation, is the leader in security operations in an exciting and fast-growing industry—cybersecurity. We have won countless awards for our excellence in security operations and remain dedicated to providing an industry-leading customer and employee experience.

Our mission is simple: End Cyber Risk. We’re looking for a Senior Platform & Infrastructure Developer - AWS/Azure to be part of making that happen.

About the Role

We continue to expand our highly talented Infrastructure teams and are seeking a senior developer with significant production operations experience to join us. In this role, you’ll work with the Platform Engineering team to design, develop, and maintain solutions to help other R&D teams deploy, run and support their workloads through the full pre-production, live service, and upgrade lifecycle.

In a Senior Developer role, you’ll be expected to have substantial experience creating, augmenting and enhancing sufficiently complex software. You should be able to write unit and integration tests for your own code, and be comfortable complying with reasonable code coverage, linting and compliance requirements.

Candidates with an operations (DevOps/SysOps/TechOps) background who have supported infrastructure at scale, and internal tools developers are encouraged to apply for this role. If you are a firm believer in Infrastructure as Code, continuous deployment/delivery practices, and sustainably automating tasks, then you might be a great fit!

Thing To Look Forward To:

  • Further automating resource setup in public clouds with a focus on Azure, applying necessary guardrails and ensuring existing tools can take advantage of new capabilities

  • Reviewing how R&D teams provision and use other managed cloud resources (load balancers, storage, databases, event streaming), enabling them to define and control these resources as code alongside their service itself

  • Researching new technologies, running trials and completing proof-of-concept work that enhance capabilities, reduce cost, or are required to stay up to date

  • Continuously improving the security of the platform itself, including working across teams to provide least-privilege access with policies and other access control mechanisms

Desired Skills and Experience:

  • Uses and promotes infrastructure-as-code in public cloud (eg: CloudFormation, Terraform, CDK); contributes to community with patches, documentation improvements or features

  • Excellent written and oral communication; can interact with multiple R&D teams, project, and program management to successfully complete objectives

  • Advocates best practices in workload lifecycle to other developers and teams, and backs it up with concrete examples and tooling to achieve them

Additional Skills and Technologies:

Experience in the following areas will also be an asset:

  • Experience with core AWS technologies including EC2, S3, Route 53, CloudWatch and IAM

  • Containers and orchestration (eg: Docker, containerd, Kubernetes)

  • Networking (on-premises, AWS VPC and related concepts)
