BlockFi is looking for a Senior Cloud Engineer to join our growing team!

About Your Team

The Cloud Engineering team manages all aspects of our infrastructure from onboarding new applications into the SDLC to ensuring those systems are performant and reliable when run in production environments. You’ll work closely with the Platform Engineering teams to build and optimize tooling that facilitates CI/CD and Infrastructure As Code (IAC) for the cloud environment. The ability to build a solid working relationship with our core product engineering team and others including compliance and legal is a must.

The Security Team is largely remote, working across timezones and prides itself on being solutions-focused. While facing incredibly complex threats in an ever-change security landscape, BlockFi has continued to thrive and needs the right tools built by passionate and energetic people.

Your Mission

• Provide tooling and guard rails for software engineering teams across the company to be self-sufficient in onboarding and maintaining their applications
• Map processes identifying automation and security/fraud risk reduction opportunities across lines of business; ultimately being part of the team building the tools to that end
• Partner with business stakeholders to truly understand what and how the company runs and proactively identifying areas where tools can be implemented or existing tools enhanced to minimize business risk, and ideally, drive business value

Your Expertise

• 5+ years of experience with cloud infrastructure engineering
• Ability to architect and deploy cloud native solutions at scale in Amazon Web Services (AWS)
• Knowledge of using and configuring IAM, AWS Organizations, CloudFormation, and AWS CDK
• Technical proficiency in networking, security, and encryption related services in AWS
• Strong programming background in Python or similar high level language
• Proven experience leading technical decisions and understanding their impact on users
• Demonstrated ability to continuously learn, work independently, and make decisions with minimal supervision
• Ability to work effectively in teams of technical and non-technical individuals
• Have extreme attention to detail without sacrificing execution rigor
• Bias towards action and own tasks end-to-end
• Work through hurdles and tactfully navigate the organization driving towards the objective
• Be a doer that can get things done and unblock tasks while building deep organizational relationships along the way
• Be thoughtful and analytical - ask why and challenge preconceived notions
• Ability to work independently with minimal supervision
• Own the company’s problems like they are your own
• Obsessive drive and passion for security and building products people use
• Knowledge of cryptocurrencies, financial services, or blockchain technology are a plus - if you don’t have this, don’t worry, we can teach you if you’re willing to learn
