About Breezy HR

Breezy HR is a remote-first, hiring platform built for small and mid-sized businesses. Thousands of teams trust us to streamline recruiting from first touch to signed offer, and we’re passionate about delivering a fast, delightful experience for every candidate and every hiring manager.

Why we’re hiring

We need a senior hands-on owner to stabilize, secure, and evolve our cloud platform. You’ll be a primary decision-maker for AWS architecture, reliability, CI/CD, observability, and cost posture, partnering closely with the directors, developers, product, and customer success teams.

What you’ll own (hands-on + strategic)

  • AWS architecture & operations: Own production infrastructure end-to-end (networking, compute, storage, IAM, routing, scaling, backups, DR).
  • IaC & environments: Standardize and evolve Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform or AWS CDK); codify dev/stage/prod with repeatable patterns and least-privilege IAM.
  • CI/CD: Keep deployments fast and safe (build, test, deploy, rollback); drive progressive delivery where it makes sense.
  • Observability & incident response: Ensure logs/metrics/traces + actionable dashboards; lead incident command and postmortems.
  • Security & compliance: Own cloud security baselines and support SOC 2 / ISO 27001 / GDPR needs.
  • Cost & performance: Right-size infra, track spend, and implement guardrails to prevent regressions.
  • Technical leadership: Document the platform, unblock developers, mentor peers, and cultivate cross-training so nothing is a single point of failure.
  • On-call: Alternate with others on the infra on-call rotation and train others as needed.

Our stack

  • Backend: Node.js microservices
  • Data: MongoDB (self-hosted) and Redis
  • Hosting/Orchestration: AWS
  • IaC: Terraform and/or AWS CDK
  • Tooling: Git-based CI/CD; common observability suites

What you’ve done

  • 7+ years building and running production systems on AWS (VPC, EC2, ELB/ALB, S3, CloudFront, Route53, RDS/ElastiCache, IAM, CloudWatch, SNS/SQS, etc.).
  • 5+ years Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, CDK) and environment automation.
  • Proven CI/CD ownership for multi-service SaaS, including safe rollbacks and release hygiene.
  • Solid security fundamentals (least-privilege IAM, network segmentation, secrets, TLS) and familiarity with SOC 2 / ISO 27001 / GDPR expectations.
  • Observability end-to-end (logs/metrics/traces), incident leadership, and postmortem practice.
  • Proficient coding in JavaScript/Node.js (enough to contribute to internal tools, CLIs, or platform services).
  • Clear, pragmatic communicator who documents decisions and trade-offs.

Nice-to-haves

  • Background with MongoDB, Redis, Elasticsearch
  • Prior team leadership

How we work

  • Senior, low-ego, remote-first team. We value fast feedback loops, little yellow/red tape, ability to iterate at startup-like pace

Benefits

  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401(k) with company match
  • PTO: 15 days in year 1, 21 days in year 2
  • MacBook Pro + the gear you need
  • Fully remote
