Senior Platform Engineer (Infrastructure)

Join True Anomaly, a fast-growing defense technology company focused on building the next generation of space defense. As a Senior Infrastructure Platform Engineer, you will play a crucial role in designing and building the foundational cloud infrastructure that supports the entire company. Your work will enable engineering teams to move faster and more safely, and you will have the opportunity to shape how the company operates its infrastructure.

• Design, build, and operate foundational cloud infrastructure that is rolled out across the enterprise, owning significant systems end to end.
• Build and operate the foundational multi-cloud environment, including the account structure, guardrails, and shared networking and identity that every team builds on top of.
• Author and maintain reusable infrastructure-as-code (e.g. Terraform) that other teams build on, and contribute to CI/CD, testing, and deployment standards that scale across the enterprise.
• Typically 5+ years of software engineering, DevOps, SRE, or cloud engineering experience building and shipping production systems, with demonstrated ability to work independently and deliver complex projects with minimal guidance
• Strong general software background, with real experience building, deploying, and operating production applications on cloud. You understand a professional software development lifecycle, including how applications are built, tested, released, and run in production. You understand what constitutes maintainable code
• Solid experience designing and operating cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, or GCP), including deploying and running production workloads
• Experience with infrastructure-as-code (e.g. Terraform), authoring reusable modules and infrastructure that other engineers depend on and build on top of
• Experience with modern CI/CD, continuous testing, and deployment practices
• Ability to work across a broad technical surface area, moving between infrastructure, application development, and platform work as priorities require
• Depth in one or more of: CI/CD and build/release tooling, cloud networking, infrastructure-as-code, or developer platforms and shared engineering tooling, with working familiarity across the rest
• A trusted technical contributor on your team who owns systems end to end, brings strong design judgment, and leads and mentors more junior engineers
• Working knowledge of networking fundamentals (e.g. HTTP, ports, DNS, firewalls, security groups, cloud networking primitives) sufficient to build and troubleshoot connectivity between environments
• Effective communication skills and the ability to work across teams to understand requirements and align on solutions
• Comfortable operating with autonomy in a fast-paced environment where priorities shift and the playbook is being written in real time. Able to work through ambiguity to define requirements and deliver results
• * US Citizenship and ability to obtain and maintain a Top-Secret security clearance
• Enterprise experience building and operating infrastructure at scale in a high-growth or large technology organization
• Experience with containers and orchestration, service mesh, and artifact/registry management
• Experience designing and improving the developer experience, or building and maintaining the core developer processes and automation that engineering teams rely on
• Familiarity with government cloud environments (AWS GovCloud, Azure Government) and authorization frameworks (FedRAMP, NIST 800-53, IL4/IL5)
• Experience deploying infrastructure in government, defense, or regulated environments with security and compliance constraints
• Experience designing or maintaining an enterprise network
• Experience with observability, reliability engineering, IAM/secrets management
• Experience using AI-powered development tools to deliver production code and automate routine work
• Background in developer tooling, platform engineering, or internal platform teams at high-growth technology companies
• Active U.S. Secret or Top-Secret security clearance
• To conform to U.S. Government space technology export regulations, including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), you must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident of the U.S., protected individual as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State
