*hiring on behalf of our client
Job Title: Senior AWS & Infrastructure Engineer (DevOps)
Type: Full-Time Location: Remote (Canada or US) Compensation: $100,000 - $130,000 CAD / year
About the Company
Our client powers Governance Ops for organizations managing complex corporate structures by centralizing entity, ownership, and governance data for legal, finance, and tax teams. Over 1 million entities across 150+ countries are managed on their platform today. Operating as a fast-paced, high-growth SaaS platform, they are looking for proactive self-starters who thrive in dynamic startup environments.
Role Overview
We are looking for a highly autonomous, cloud-focused DevOps Engineer to join the Cloud Security & Infrastructure team. In this role, you will take ownership of our client's AWS environment, design highly customized Terraform modules, and drive pipeline modernization across Bitbucket. If you excel in fast-moving SaaS/startup settings, enjoy deep Infrastructure as Code (IaC) challenges over container orchestration, and can own projects end-to-end without daily hand-holding, this is the role for you.
Key Responsibilities
Infrastructure Ownership: Architect, build, and optimize scalable, cost-effective AWS infrastructure using advanced, highly customized Terraform configurations. Pipeline Modernization: Lead the modernization, optimization, and maintenance of Bitbucket CI/CD pipelines to ensure seamless, reliable deployments. Autonomous Execution: Drive infrastructure initiatives from concept to deployment independently, making informed technical decisions with minimal guidance. SaaS Operations: Identify cost-saving opportunities, efficiency improvements, and performance bottlenecks across a high-traffic SaaS platform. Security & Maintenance: Conduct vulnerability scans, analyze findings, execute routine platform maintenance, and participate in on-call incident response rotations. Remote Collaboration: Work asynchronously and collaboratively with cross-functional engineering teams in a fully remote environment.
Qualifications & Requirements
Startup/SaaS Experience: Proven background working in fast-paced SaaS or startup environments (no rigid, siloed enterprise or big bank backgrounds). AWS Expertise: Hands-on experience designing and managing core AWS services in production. Advanced Terraform: Deep expertise writing modular, highly customized, and production-grade Infrastructure as Code (IaC) from scratch (not just editing existing modules). CI/CD Focus: Strong experience modernizing and maintaining Bitbucket pipelines (or similar git-based CI/CD tooling). Self-Driven & Collaborative: Demonstrated ability to work autonomously, take complete project ownership, and communicate clearly in remote-first teams. Solid Linux Fundamentals: Comfort working within Linux environments and understanding foundational networking/security principles. Note: This role is focused strictly on cloud infrastructure, IaC, and deployment pipelines. Deep Docker/Kubernetes container orchestration backgrounds are not required for this position.
