Infrastructure Engineer - Leaply

Infrastructure Engineer

Leaply is an ecosystem of digital and physical products designed to help people build healthy habits and improve their quality of life. We operate in global markets — the US, Tier 1, Europe, and beyond. We initially launched a web platform, and later expanded with a mobile application, focused on habit-building with a subscription-based monetization model.

In 2025, the team tripled in size and the business grew 3x. In 2026, we aim to double our growth and become a top-3 healthtech product globally.

Our team is building its third business together, with successful exits behind us and a deep understanding of our niche and target audience. We move fast, communicate openly, and set ambitious goals.

What You'll Do:

— Become the first hire in a new Platform team and build the infrastructure function from scratch — from strategy to execution, with full ownership and impact across the business; — Transform infrastructure that has grown alongside the product into a mature, well-structured platform — with clear service maps, dependencies, and ownership areas; — Take Terraform and Kubernetes to the next level of maturity: modular IaC architecture, standardized deployments, autoscaling — ensuring every release is predictable and reliable; — Build a full observability system: metrics, logs, traces, alerting — so the team can proactively monitor system health instead of reacting after issues occur; — Strengthen security practices: access management, secrets handling, protection from external threats — and make security an integral part of the engineering culture; — Optimize data infrastructure — ensuring stable and efficient pipelines for analytics and business decision-making; — Create platform templates for new services — so product teams can focus on features instead of infrastructure; — Work across three core business domains — Product, Growth/Marketing, and Payments — building solutions that scale the entire business, not just individual teams.
