Cloud Security Architect (Remote)

The Cloud Infrastructure team builds the foundation Petal's product teams rely on: the cloud primitives, deployment pipelines, observability tooling, and platform capabilities that let engineering teams ship with confidence.
As a Developer II on this team, you'll own well-scoped infrastructure work from design through delivery and into operation. That means collaborating with product engineers to understand what they need from the platform, and working with fellow cloud engineers on the reliability and security of shared services.

Operate AKS clusters, including Helm releases, ingress/TLS configuration, cert-manager, and Gateway API CRDs.

• Improve CI/CD pipelines and GitLab deployment automation so product teams can ship with more speed and less risk.
• Contribute to the Developer Internal Platform: golden paths, self-service templates, and tooling that reduces how much product engineers need to know about infrastructure.
• That includes dashboards, runbooks, and joining the on-call rotation over time.
• Harden security patterns across identity, access control, secrets, private networking, and vulnerability scanning.
• Work directly with product teams to help them get what they need from the platform without becoming infrastructure experts.
• Use AI tools to move faster on scripting, research, and debugging. Review outputs critically and keep sensitive data out of them.
• Show up in design discussions, flag operational risks early, and give useful feedback in code and infrastructure reviews.

Practical cloud experience: you've worked with compute, networking, storage, identity, and secrets in at least one major cloud provider.

• Comfort building or maintaining CI/CD pipelines, deployment workflows, and automation scripts.
• Working knowledge of Kubernetes: deployments, services, namespaces, and enough kubectl to troubleshoot in production.
• A solid foundation in observability: metrics, logs, traces, alerting, and how to find what's actually broken.
• SLOs, error budgets, incident analysis, or resilience testing.
• GitLab CI: pipelines, environments, and reusable components.

The Developer Internal Platform you'll help build is the foundation dozens of Petal engineers build on. You're working at the intersection of infrastructure, developer experience, and platform engineering at a time when that space is changing fast.

• The Cloud Infrastructure team is small and technical. 4 to 6 weeks of paid vacation per year;
• 5 ​paid personal days​ per year​;
• Recurring remote/hybrid work allowance; In our opinion, a company cannot claim to be modern, innovative and have the well-being of their team at heart, without attempting to integrate remote working to the level that their business model allows them to.

Petal is an active participant in the equal opportunity employment program, and members of the following target groups are encouraged to apply: women, people with disabilities, aboriginal peoples and visible minorities.
