This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior Software Engineer, Cloud Engineering based in Canada.
This role sits at the core of a modern cloud engineering organization responsible for building and evolving an internal developer platform used across multiple engineering teams. You will help design scalable infrastructure systems that improve how services are built, deployed, observed, and operated in production. The environment is highly collaborative, with strong emphasis on platform reliability, developer experience, and cloud-native best practices. You will contribute to CI/CD modernization, Kubernetes optimization, and observability tooling that supports large-scale distributed systems. This position combines hands-on engineering with architectural influence, requiring both depth in cloud technologies and the ability to guide technical direction. It is ideal for an engineer who thrives in ambiguous environments and enjoys solving systemic platform challenges that impact many teams.
