ABOUT THE ROLE:

We are looking for a Senior DevOps / Platform Engineer to design and operate the internal platform that enables engineers to ship quickly, safely, and reliably.

This role goes beyond infrastructure management; you will build systems that make deployment, observability, scaling, and incident response increasingly automated and self-service for product teams.


A key part of this role is supporting our AI-native engineering strategy: enabling the tools, environments, and workflows that allow our engineers to work effectively with AI coding assistants and agentic workflows at scale.

OUR STACK:

• Cloud: AWS
• Compute: ECS Fargate, Lambda, Event-Driven Services
• Infrastructure as Code: Terraform
• Languages: Python, TypeScript, Bash
• Datastores: Aurora Postgres, DynamoDB, Redis (Elasticache), OpenSearch
• Streaming & Queues: Kinesis, SQS, BullMQ
• CI/CD: GitHub Actions (Enterprise)
• Observability: Datadog, AWS CloudWatch
• Architecture: Containerized APIs, Serverless Processing, Distributed Systems
• AI Infrastructure: SageMaker and/or self-hosted model serving systems

WHAT YOU'LL WORK ON:

You will help build and operate Regal's voice agent platform across containerized services, event-driven systems, and AI workloads running at production scale.

• Designing and maintaining Infrastructure as Code using Terraform to provision and manage AWS infrastructure.
• Building and evolving internal developer platforms (IDPs) that establish a golden path. These are opinionated, self-service workflows for deployment, environment provisioning, and operational tooling, so engineers spend less time on undifferentiated infrastructure decisions.
• Supporting self-serve developer environments that enable engineers and AI agents to iterate quickly and independently.
• Enabling and scaling AI-assisted engineering operations, including access management, adoption visibility, and developer productivity measurement across the team's AI tooling.
• Improving system reliability, scalability, and performance across distributed services and real-time workloads.
• Optimizing CI/CD systems to reduce deployment friction and accelerate engineering feedback loops.
• Operating production systems with strong ownership of uptime, incident response, and recovery automation.
• Partnering with engineering teams to improve service architecture, resiliency, and operational maturity.
• Improving cost efficiency and infrastructure utilization across AWS and other infrastructure.
• Supporting secure and compliant cloud infrastructure aligned with SOC2 and enterprise security practices.
• Participating in on-call rotations.

ABOUT YOU:

• 4+ years of experience in DevOps, Platform Engineering, or Cloud Infrastructure roles.
• Deep experience operating production workloads on AWS.
• Strong hands-on experience with Terraform or comparable IaC tooling.
• Experience running containerized and serverless systems at scale.
• Strong understanding of distributed systems reliability and failure modes.
• Experience building CI/CD pipelines and developer automation tooling.
• Experience with observability platforms such as Datadog, Prometheus, or OpenTelemetry.
• Familiarity with incident response, on-call operations, and production debugging.
• Working knowledge of networking, IAM, and cloud security best practices.
• Comfortable collaborating across engineering teams and influencing technical direction.

NICE TO HAVE:

• Experience building or operating Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs) with golden path tooling.
• Experience building or managing self-serve developer environments at scale.
• Exposure to AI coding tools (e.g., code assistants, agentic coding workflows) and the infrastructure required to support them.
• Experience supporting AI/ML or real-time workloads.
• Cost optimization and cloud efficiency initiatives.
• Exposure to compliance frameworks (SOC2, HIPAA, PCI).

BENEFITS/PERKS:

• We care about your health!
• Medical, Dental, and Vision plans - 80% covered by the company
• Flexible PTO & 11 paid holidays/year
• We care about future you!
• 401k Plan
• Paid parental leave
• Pre-tax commuter benefits
• We care about connection!
• In-office breakfast and snacks daily
• Happy hours, team outings, & annual off-sites
• Complete laptop workstation
• & more to come!
