Responsibilities

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer, Infrastructure who can own the reliability, scale, performance, and developer experience of HUD’s core infrastructure and backend systems.
This is not a pure infrastructure role. The right person has strong production infra experience, but also thinks like a backend engineer: they can reason about service architecture, queues, databases, APIs, deployment safety, performance bottlenecks, and how product requirements translate into resilient systems. You’ll work across AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD, observability, and backend services to make HUD faster, more reliable, cheaper to run, and easier for engineers to build on.
Own production uptime, latency, provisioning speed, infrastructure cost, and incident response for core platform services
Build and maintain AWS infrastructure with Terraform, Kubernetes/EKS, Helm, Docker, EC2, CodeBuild, ECR, S3, IAM, networking, and secrets management
Design and improve backend and platform systems for scale, including capacity planning, autoscaling, queueing, backpressure, cleanup jobs, retries, and rollback paths
Define and improve dashboards, alerts, logs, traces, SLOs, runbooks, and on-call workflows so failures are detected, debugged, and resolved quickly
Build reliable CI/CD, release automation, environment management, and deployment workflows that improve developer productivity and reduce production risk
Write clean, maintainable code where needed to automate systems, improve backend services, and create internal tooling
You may be a good fit if you:
Have owned production cloud infrastructure for a high-availability, user-facing platform, with responsibility for uptime, performance, deployment safety, and cost
Have deep experience with AWS infrastructure and containerized systems; experience with tools like Terraform, Kubernetes/EKS, Docker, EC2, CodeBuild, ECR, S3, IAM, load balancers, networking, and secrets management is strongly preferred
Have built or operated CI/CD, environment management, release automation, observability, alerting, and incident response systems
