Senior Staff Engineer Infrastructure Software

Netradyne harnesses the power of Computer Vision and Edge Computing to revolutionize the modern-day transportation ecosystem. We are a leader in fleet safety solutions. With growth exceeding 4x year over year our solution is quickly being recognized as a significant disruptive technology. Our team is growing and we need forward-thinking uncompromising competitive team members to continue to facilitate our growth.

Role Summary

The Infra-Dev team builds the software that runs Netradynes cloud infrastructure. We write the internal platforms automation and AI agents that DevOps Database and engineering teams use every day: cloud cost analytics and anomaly detection self-service service provisioning on AWS an internal developer platform on Kubernetes database access and upgrade automation S3 data lifecycle and retention and agentic tooling for infrastructure operations and on-call.

We are looking for a Senior Staff Engineer to provide technical leadership for Infra-Dev. You will own the teams technical goals and major platforms decide how new initiatives are approached and stay hands-on in design and code. You bring wide-ranging experience across cloud infrastructure software engineering databases and cost management and you understand how these disciplines affect one another.

Role and Responsibilities

• Act as technical owner and architect for Infra-Devs major platforms: the cloud operations and cost platform the service provisioning tooling the internal developer platform and infrastructure AI agents.

• Lead the design and delivery of multi-quarter initiatives such as containerising services onto Kubernetes (EKS) GitOps-based internal developer platforms an infrastructure registry of service and resource dependencies and infrastructure-as-code standardisation.

• Decide the methods tools and standards for new assignments including build-vs-buy evaluations technology selection and migration plans.

• Lead cloud cost management (FinOps) engineering: cost allocation and unit economics (for example cost per device or per feature) forecasting anomaly detection Savings Plans and Reserved Instance coverage and COGS/OpEx reporting for engineering and finance leadership.

• Act as a technical point of contact for Finance and cloud vendors (AWS account and TAM teams tooling vendors) on cost analysis forecasts commitments and renewals.

• Own the architecture of data lifecycle and storage-cost programs for petabyte-scale S3 data: retention policies storage-class transitions data retirement and safe deletion with customer-specific exceptions.

• Run the teams recurring cost and operations reviews turning findings into prioritised engineering work and measurable savings.

• Define the architecture for agentic infrastructure operations: triage and on-call agents MCP gateways and human-in-the-loop approvals with clear security guardrails.

• Set standards for database and access automation across PostgreSQL MongoDB Cassandra OpenSearch ClickHouse and DynamoDB working closely with the Database team.

• Provide architecture guidance on shared infrastructure that DevOps and Database teams depend on including logging pipelines internal PKI and certificates Kubernetes secrets management and device-to-cloud ingestion (IoT Kinesis Video Streams).

• Drive security and compliance-by-default in infrastructure tooling: least-privilege IAM credential lifecycle secrets management tagging and audit reporting.

• Lead architecture and design reviews RFCs and technical decisions for Infra-Dev and review designs from DevOps and Database teams where they intersect.

• Identify and address scalability reliability cost and security risks across the infrastructure stack before they become incidents.

• Lead investigation of complex production issues that cross application database network and cloud layers and drive lasting fixes.

• Plan sprints and roadmaps with engineering leadership: break down work manage dependencies track delivery and report progress with team metrics.

• Make sure critical knowledge is written down: design documents runbooks and ownership maps for every system the team runs.

• Mentor and grow engineers through design guidance code reviews and career coaching.

• Take part in hiring interviews and onboarding for the Infra teams.

Essential Skills

• 8 years of hands-on software engineering experience including significant experience building infrastructure platform DevOps or SRE software at scale.

• Expert programming skills in Python and/or Go with a strong record of production-quality code and code review.

• Deep hands-on AWS expertise across compute networking IAM storage databases messaging and billing including multi-account and multi-cluster environments.

• Strong experience with Kubernetes (EKS) and the cloud-native ecosystem: Helm Argo CD Crossplane service networking and autoscaling.

• Strong experience with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform/Terragrunt or equivalent) and designing reusable modules and golden paths.

• Strong experience designing CI/CD pipelines and safe deployment strategies across multiple environments.

• Strong understanding of distributed systems: reliability fault tolerance idempotency retries and capacity planning.

• Strong understanding of database operations and internals for relational and NoSQL data stores.

• Experience with cloud cost management including cost data pipelines cost allocation and commitment-based discounts.

• Proven ability to determine methods and approaches on new loosely defined assignments and to evaluate trade-offs across many variables.

• Proven technical leadership: driving multi-person initiatives and mentoring engineers while staying hands-on.

• Strong communication skills with the ability to explain technical trade-offs risks and cost impact to engineering and business leaders.

Good-to-Have Skills

• Experience building LLM agents and AI platforms (AWS Bedrock Strands or LangGraph MCP vector databases agent observability).

• Experience building internal developer platforms or platform-engineering products used by many teams.

• Experience with observability platforms such as Prometheus Grafana VictoriaMetrics OpenTelemetry or the ELK stack.

• Experience with Snowflake data warehouses and forecasting or anomaly detection techniques (e.g. Prophet regression models).

• Experience with IoT or device platforms and large-scale data ingestion.

• Familiarity with AI-assisted software development tools such as Claude Cursor and GitHub Copilot.

Leadership & Management Expectations

• Act as the senior technical leader and approver for Infra-Dev and own team goals for its tactical business targets.

• Support the decisions and goals of the wider Infrastructure function (DevOps Database and Infra-Dev); your work is reviewed on completion.

• Understand how infrastructure application engineering security and finance depend on one another and design solutions that work across them.

• Direct how existing engineering principles are applied in Infra-Dev and guide the development of new infrastructure policies and standards.

• Build a culture of engineering quality ownership automation and continuous improvement.

Qualifications and Education Requirements

• in Computer Science Engineering or a related field or equivalent professional experience.

• Typically requires 8 years of related experience with a Bachelors degree 6 years with a Masters degree or a PhD with 3 years of experience.
