About the role

As Engineering Manager for Infrastructure Platform, you'll shape how a fast-scaling AI company designs, provisions, and evolves the infrastructure that powers everything. Your team owns the landing zone, network topology, global traffic routing, IaC modules for self-service provisioning, and enterprise IT integrations.

What you'll do

  • Hire, develop, and retain engineers who combine deep technical craft with ownership and accountability. Create an environment where people grow fast and hold each other to a high standard.
  • Own the full infrastructure substrate end-to-end — landing zone, network topology (hub-and-spoke, VPN, peerings), global routing and DNS, IaC module library, and the runner infrastructure that keeps CI/CD moving.
  • Drive Parloa's multi-tenant deployment architecture forward. Own the runtime abstractions that hide multi-tenancy complexity from product teams. Ensure new regions and customer deployments can be stood up predictably and at pace.
  • Establish the IaC conventions, Terraform modules, and orchestration patterns that product teams depend on. Make infrastructure self-service without making it unsafe.
  • Infrastructure Platform sits at the center of the Tech Platform group. Your IaC workflows hand off to DevEx. Your networking and patching posture feeds SecOps. Clear ownership and tight collaboration across those seams is part of the job.

What you'll need

  • 8+ years in infrastructure, cloud, or platform engineering, with at least 3 years leading teams, ideally in a SaaS or platform company at meaningful scale.
  • Hands-on experience with cloud-native infrastructure (Azure, AWS, or GCP), including networking, IAM, Kubernetes, and IaC (Terraform in particular).
  • Strong conviction about infrastructure as a product: you think about self-service, reliability at the foundation layer, and giving product teams the primitives they need to move fast without becoming infrastructure experts.
  • A proven team builder. You know how to hire strong infrastructure engineers, develop them into seniors, and create the conditions for good independent judgment.
  • Comfortable operating across abstraction layers: you can review a Terraform module, discuss multi-tenant runtime topology at an architecture review, and explain multi-region HA tradeoffs to a non-technical audience in the same day.
  • Familiarity with compliance-adjacent infrastructure concerns (data residency, network segmentation, audit logging) as they arise in enterprise SaaS environments.

Nice to have

  • Genuine curiosity about what AI-native infrastructure looks like at scale. The patterns are still being written, and you want to help write them.
