Requirements

  • Platform Experience: Strong background building and operating production infrastructure, platform engineering, or SRE environments that engineering teams rely on (minimum 2-3+ years of experience, calibrated to level).
  • Technical Proficiency: Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure technologies such as Terraform, AWS, and Kubernetes, alongside observability tools (e.g., Datadog, CloudWatch).

Compensation

  • $130,000-$150,000 CAD per year Note: We are hiring across a range of experience levels and will calibrate final scope, title, and compensation accordingly.
