About Copado:
Copado is the leading DevOps platform for Salesforce. We help companies deliver faster, higher quality releases with greater control and visibility. Our mission is to empower Salesforce teams to achieve true enterprise agility. We're a fast-growing, innovative company with a global presence, and we're looking for passionate individuals to join our team and help us shape the future of DevOps.

The Opportunity:
We are seeking a Sr. Infrastructure Engineer to architect and manage the scalable, secure, and high-performance cloud foundations required for the next generation of Copado's agentic experiences. As the platform transitions from a Salesforce-based solution to a modular, cloud-native architecture, this role is essential in providing the underlying infrastructure for forking the Essentials CI/CD tool and integrating it into the Copado Robotic Testing (CRT) stack.

Leveraging expert-level knowledge of AWS (primary) alongside experience in GCP or Azure/ADO, you will design the infrastructure that supports Java and Python backend services, AWS Step Functions, and complex GitLab pipelines. The ultimate goal is to deliver a resilient and intelligent cloud foundation.

What You'll Do:

• Architect and deploy scalable, modular cloud infrastructure on AWS, enabling seamless evolution of Copado's next-generation platform.

• Provide the underlying infrastructure required to successfully fork the Essentials CI/CD tool and integrate it into the Copado Robotic Testing (CRT) technology stack, supporting the platform's transition to a modular, cloud-native architecture.

• Architect and implement sophisticated AWS Step Functions and serverless workflows to ensure reliable, scalable execution of complex CI/CD and testing processes across the platform.

• Enhance delivery speed and reliability by implementing high-performance GitLab pipelines and containerized microservices with Kubernetes orchestration, reducing time-to-production and improving deployment security.

• Implement comprehensive logging, metrics, and error tracking across AWS and secondary environments (GCP/Azure) to proactively identify issues, reduce production incidents, and ensure system reliability.

• Design and configure high-performance environments required to run Copado's internal AI platform (Copilot/Cursor) and support agentic workflows that power intelligent automation and developer productivity.

• Lead the adoption and standardization of IaC patterns (Terraform, CloudFormation) to ensure functional consistency, security, and repeatability of environments across all product lines.

• Drive measurable gains in system responsiveness and scalability through infrastructure-level optimizations including caching strategies, efficient data routing, reduced latency, and intelligent resource allocation.

What You Bring:

• 8+ years of hands-on experience in Infrastructure Engineering, Cloud Architecture, or DevOps, including deep expertise in AWS, Kubernetes, and Infrastructure-as-Code for complex, distributed systems.

• Cloud Mastery (AWS/GCP/Azure): Expert in AWS services (primary), with strong proficiency in GCP or Azure (ADO) for multi-cloud deployments.

• Containerization & Orchestration: Advanced experience with Docker and Kubernetes (K8s) for managing large-scale, modular enterprise applications.

• Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Deep knowledge of automating cloud management to ensure secure and consistent delivery pipelines.

• Networking & Security: Expertise in designing secure VPCs, IAM roles, and ensuring cloud-native security compliance (e.g., FedRAMP).

• CI/CD & DevOps Automation: Mastery of Git, GitLab pipelines, and automation tools for secure and automated delivery.

• Backend Awareness: Familiarity with Java (Spring Boot), Python, and Node.js to align infrastructure with engineering requirements.
  

Cultural Competencies

• Bias for Action: Takes full ownership of infrastructure problems and drives to solutions with urgency.

• AI-Driven Mindset: Views AI as a strategic lever for improving developer experience, automation, and infrastructure quality.

• Ownership & Accountability: Proactively solves problems and treats the platform's infrastructure as their own product.

• High Standards: Maintains exceptional attention to system reliability, scalability, and maintainability.

• Continuous Improvement: Proactively identifies opportunities to modernize legacy cloud layers and reduce technical debt.
  

Benefits

• Copado offers a comprehensive benefits package, which includes:

• Competitive salary and performance-based bonuses.

• Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance.

• 401(k) Plan

• Paid Time Off

• Wellness Perks
