About this Role

Fandom is growing! We’re looking for a Senior Cloud Engineer to help evolve and support the infrastructure that powers our platform for over 300 million fans around the world. This is a hands-on role focused on building reliable, scalable systems in a Linux and Kubernetes-based environment.

As part of the TechOps team, you’ll report to the Manager of TechOps and work closely with developers, product engineers, and other infrastructure teams. You’ll contribute to our CI/CD, monitoring, automation, and cloud efforts — helping ensure Fandom’s platform remains fast, stable, and secure as we grow.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys solving complex infrastructure challenges, improving deployment systems, and enabling engineering teams to move faster and safer.

You Will...

  • Design, architect, and scale high-availability routing architectures to seamlessly balance and secure global user traffic across a hybrid footprint of on-premise datacenters, AWS, and GCP.
  • Manage and automate cloud and edge infrastructure as code (IaC) using Terraform and Chef, ensuring consistent configurations for Kubernetes, global Cloudflare services, and CI/CD pipelines.
  • Maintain and optimize large-scale production environments, orchestrating high-availability MySQL replication, automated failover, robust disaster recovery, and system monitoring.
  • Develop internal tools for operational automation, system/data backups, performance tuning, and comprehensive security monitoring.
  • Drive operational excellence by leading planning meetings, retrospectives, and RCAs, while continuously evaluating systems against industry best practices.
  • Participate in an on-call rotation to maintain production stability, handle incident responses, and collaborate with/mentor cross-functional engineering teams.

You Have...

  • 5+ years of experience in Technical/Network Operations, DevOps, or SRE roles managing large-scale production platforms (e.g., 10M+ monthly active users).
  • Deep proficiency in Linux systems administration, networking protocols (TCP/IP, routing), secure systems practices, and scripting/programming (Go, Python, or Bash).
  • Proven hands-on experience with core infrastructure tech: Kubernetes/container orchestration, CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins), and monitoring/reliability systems (e.g., Prometheus).
  • Practical experience managing production MySQL database environments, including deep familiarity with replication topologies, failover mechanisms, and performance tuning.
  • Demonstrated capability using generative AI tools (e.g., Gemini, NotebookLM) to enhance productivity, paired with the ability to critically audit and verify outputs for accuracy, security, and context.

Bonus Points...

  • Advanced Cloudflare expertise, including CDN optimization, WAF security, DNS management, edge performance tuning, and Cloudflare Tunnels.
  • Strong understanding of distributed systems architecture, edge caching, and centralized log management using the ELK stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana).
  • Experience defining SLOs and instrumentation, implementing meaningful metrics, logs, and traces to reduce alert noise and drive postmortem action items.

Benefits & Perks

  • Salary Range = $122k - $204k (Actual salary available will vary based on location and market factors.)
  • Vibrant team culture
  • Comprehensive Medical, Dental, Vision
  • Training (unlimited Udemy + more)
  • Flexible working hours and time off
  • Equity & Retirement Programs including 401K match
  • Paid Parental Leave
  • International work environment with start-up culture

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
