Senior Cloud Engineer

What you'll do Own and evolve Qrypt's AWS infrastructure as code with Terraform: environments, networking, security, and deployment pipelines.

Design and build cloud services (in Rust, with some C++ and Python) that deliver quantum entropy and keys reliably and securely.

Lead the effort to deploy Qrypt's cloud interface into customer environments, not just Qrypt-hosted, including portable, repeatable deployment patterns.

Stand up monitoring, alerting, and observability so we catch issues before customers do.

Improve reliability, security, and cost of the cloud platform as it scales.

Partner with engineering and product to sequence the cloud roadmap and turn shortcomings into planned work.

Contribute to on-call and operational readiness for the services you build.

What you'll need Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related technical field, and/or relevant work experience.

6+ years in cloud/platform engineering, including end-to-end ownership of a production cloud environment.

Strong hands-on AWS experience and expertise with Terraform (infrastructure as code).

Ability to build backend/cloud services, not just manage infrastructure; comfortable in Rust or a strong systems language (C++, Go, Python) with willingness to work in Rust.

Experience with monitoring/alerting and observability tooling, and with running reliable production services.

Experience deploying software into varied or customer-controlled environments (containers/Kubernetes, portable IaC).

Fluency with AI and agent-assisted development workflows, and the judgment to own the correctness of anything these tools help you produce. This is core to how we operate at Qrypt and is expected of everyone here.

Strong written and verbal communication skills.

Must be authorized to work in the United States. Qrypt does not provide visa sponsorship for this role.

Nice to have Experience with cryptography, security, key management, or networking systems.

Experience with security/compliance in the cloud (e.g., SOC 2, FIPS 140-3, high-assurance environments).
