Associate Infrastructure & Security Engineer

SUMMARY

We are seeking a curious, organized Associate Infrastructure & Security Engineer to strengthen our cloud operations, security program, and compliance posture as we serve enterprise customers. In this role you will support AWS infrastructure, day-to-day security operations, and SOC 2 / ISO 27001 activities while working closely with senior leadership and engineering. If you want broad hands-on exposure to infrastructure, security, and governance in a small, technical SaaS company, and you communicate well and learn fast, we want to hear from you.

DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Infrastructure and cloud operations: Assist with AWS administration, monitoring, Linux troubleshooting, networking, DNS, TLS certificates, and backups; help document and standardize environments; participate in operational support and incident response.
• Security operations: Support vulnerability management and remediation tracking; review alerts from security and monitoring tools; assist with endpoint security and device management; participate in access reviews and IAM processes; contribute to logging, monitoring, and security documentation.
• Compliance and governance: Support SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 activities; maintain policies, procedures, evidence, and control documentation; participate in risk management and vendor reviews; assist with audit preparation and evidence collection; help improve operational repeatability.
• Development and DevOps support: Partner with developers on secure deployment practices; assist with CI/CD and operational tooling; support containerized workflows and validation of infrastructure and security changes.

REQUIRED SKILLS/ABILITIES:

• Technical Skills: Basic Linux and networking; familiarity with cloud concepts (AWS preferred); awareness of security fundamentals; ability to follow runbooks and use ticketing/documentation tools. Exposure to scripting, Docker, Git, or monitoring/logging platforms is a plus.
• Communication: Clear written and verbal communication with engineering and leadership; professional process and security documentation.
• Problem-Solving: Comfortable diagnosing issues, learning unfamiliar systems independently, and escalating with context when appropriate.
• Interpersonal Skills: Collaborative, reliable, and comfortable in a small, fast-moving team; receptive to feedback and mentorship.
• Additional: Organized, detail-oriented, and willing to work across infrastructure, security, and compliance rather than a single narrow lane.

EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE:

• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, information systems, cybersecurity or equivalent experience.
• 5-10 years in infrastructure, security operations, IT operations, or compliance-adjacent technical roles
