Since 2016, we’ve helped hundreds of thousands of small business customers across the United States get fast, customized and affordable coverage. We’re backed by industry leaders in insurance and tech, and we still have room to grow — that’s where you come in. At NEXT, a cloud-native company, our platform is the heartbeat of our operation. We are looking for a Infrastructure & DevOps Engineer who is passionate about building scalable, resilient, and developer-friendly infrastructure. You won't just be "managing servers"; you will be architecting the internal platform that enables our entire engineering organization to ship code faster and more reliably. You will be a part of a small, ultra-talented, and supportive Infrastructure & DevOps Engineer. This is a unique opportunity to learn from seasoned experts and contribute directly to high-impact projects from day one.In this role, you will be a key driver of our infrastructure evolution. You will design and implement robust systems primarily using AWS, leveraging EKS to run and deploy our services, and treating 100% of our environment as code using Terraform. We are looking for someone who doesn't just follow industry trends but thinks "out of the box" to solve complex architectural challenges, ensuring our infrastructure serves as a seamless "product" for our internal developers. As our team also acts as the centralized FinOps authority, your ability to understand the cost implications of architectural decisions is a significant plus, helping us maintain a high-performance yet cost-efficient cloud environment. What You’ll Do:   Infrastructure Design & Automation: Architect and maintain our core cloud infrastructure, focusing on building a robust foundation that supports self-service capabilities for engineering teams to manage their own resources within a governed framework.

GitOps & Deployment: Utilize technologies like ArgoCD to manage and deploy. Infrastructure Integrity & Custom Tooling: We are uncompromising about our "100% Infrastructure as Code" standard—if it’s not in Git, it doesn't exist. You will take ownership of this vision by developing bespoke, in-house automation and monitoring tools to eliminate manual changes, ensuring the AWS console remains strictly read-only and our cloud state is always perfectly synced with our code. Kubernetes Excellence: Optimize and scale our EKS clusters, ensuring they are robust enough to host both our backend/frontend services and our internal tooling. Governance & Landing Zone: Manage our multi-account AWS strategy using Control Tower and automated Account Factories, ensuring isolation, security, and environment consistency (Dev/Stg/Prod/DR). Efficiency Mindset: Act as a key member of the team driving cloud cost awareness and accountability across the organization, helping to optimize resources and foster a data-driven FinOps culture. Observability & Monitoring: Implement and maintain comprehensive monitoring, alerting, and logging solutions (Mimir, Grafana ect’) to ensure the health, performance, and reliability of our platform and services. Drive a culture of data-driven incident response and proactive system optimization.
