What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Cloud Architect | Infrastructure-as-Code Specialist - local USC only - No relocation position at OM Housing?
🎯 Senior Cloud Architect | Infrastructure-as-Code Specialist
- 📍 Location: Cambridge
- 💰 Salary: Up to $190k Equity
- 🏢 Work Type: Hybrid (Candidates must live in the Boston area)
Build the bedrock for a consumer-facing platform that uses AI and real-time data.
The client is not just "using" AWS; they are engineering a high-performance ecosystem where manual intervention is a bug. They need a Senior Engineer who views Infrastructure as a product, not a ticket queue. You’ll be the primary architect responsible for evolving our stack from “functional” to “flawless,” ensuring our global footprint is secure, self-healing, and incredibly fast.
- 🌐 Architectural Sovereignty: Lead the design of multi-region, high-availability AWS environments that don’t just meet business needs—they anticipate them.
- 💻 Infrastructure-as-Software: Drive a 100% Terraform-first culture. If it isn’t in code, it doesn’t exist.
- 💥 Chaos Engineering & Resilience: Build the DR/HA strategies that let our team sleep soundly during 10x traffic spikes.
- 🛡️ Security at Speed: Integrate IAM and networking (VPC, Subnets) so deeply into the CI/CD pipeline that security becomes a performance enhancer, not a bottleneck.
- 📊 Financial Engineering: Treat AWS cost optimization as a high-stakes strategy game—maximizing performance per dollar spent.
- ☁️ AWS Mastery: You don't just know the console; you understand the underlying primitives of EC2, RDS, and S3. You likely have a Solutions Architect Professional cert (or the equivalent "battle scars").
- 🧙♂️ Terraform Wizardry: You write modular, reusable, and DRY Terraform code that other engineers study to get better.
- 🔄 DevOps Mindset: You believe in CI/CD as a religion and "The Phoenix Project" as a manual.
- ⏳ The "3 Year" Paradox: We say 3 years, but we care more about your density of experience. If you’ve spent two years scaling a platform to millions of users, we want to talk.
- 📈 Equity: Generous stock options. We want you to own what you build.
- 🔓 Autonomy: Unlimited PTO and a "get it done" culture.
- 🌱 Growth: Learning & Development stipends to keep your edge sharp.
- 🏆 The Standards: 401K match, premium health/dental, and paid family leave.
- 🍱 Fuel: Catered lunches and a social impact program that actually matters.
