The role

At Alter Domus, we are looking for a Infrastructure & Cloud Engineer who gets things done.

  • Operate, maintain, and continuously improve on-premises and cloud infrastructure across AWS and Azure.

  • Work with container platforms: deploy, troubleshoot, and maintain Kubernetes and OpenShift workloads.
  • Enforce security controls across infrastructure - network segmentation, Zero Trust, IAM, PAM, MFA and remediate vulnerabilities.
  • Automate repetitive operational tasks using scripting and IaC tools (Terraform, Ansible).
  • Monitor infrastructure health, respond to alerts, and drive proactive capacity and performance improvements.
  • Collaborate with architecture, security, and application teams to implement technical requirements correctly and on time.

Your Profile
