Why a CV for this job?

94% of employers say their filters drop qualified candidates whose CV does not match the ad's exact criteria (Harvard Business School, 2021).

  • They see what they asked for, first. Your experience that matches the ad leads, in the ad's own words, so someone skimming finds it in seconds.
  • It gets past the software. Many larger employers use software that ranks CVs by how closely they match the ad, often before anyone reads them.
  • In the language of the ad. An ad written in Spanish gets a CV in Spanish, even when yours is in Portuguese.
  • Your facts, nothing invented. Your own experience, reordered and reworded. What the ad wants and your CV does not show is listed for you to add, only if it is true. You check it before you send it.

  • Implement monitoring, logging, and observability solutions to enhance system visibility.
  • Collaborate closely with product and engineering teams to align infrastructure with business needs.
  • Take ownership of meeting defined SLOs, including participating in on-call rotations.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of experience working with cloud infrastructure in a major cloud provider (AWS, GCP, Azure).
  • Experience with infrastructure-as-code (IaC) in a production environment (Terraform, Helm etc).
  • Deep understanding of cloud security best practices.
  • Experience with Kubernetes.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, a related field, or equivalent experience.

What sets you apart

  • Familiarity with security frameworks and compliance standards such as SOC 2 or ISO 27001.
  • Experience with large-scale AI / ML workloads (particularly using GPUs).
  • Familiarity with AI agents or LLM-based systems, especially LLM inference systems.
  • Experience with Golang and Python.
