• Partner closely with Engineering on the deployment pipeline, ensuring our cloud infrastructure is scaled appropriately and CI/CD systems run reliably
• Triage and troubleshoot infrastructure issues and outages in real time, and drive root cause analysis to prevent recurrence
• Handle security-related tickets, such as fixing and maintaining GitHub Actions and keeping client/dependency versions up to date
• Implement and enforce security and compliance best practices, including access control, certificate management, vulnerability management, and audit logging
• Evaluate and roll out new infrastructure and tooling, advising Engineering, Product, and Design on the best way to adopt and integrate them
• Drive infrastructure-as-code adoption to ensure reproducible, auditable environments
• Collaborate with Product and Leadership to translate operational needs into scalable infrastructure solutions
• Stay current on AI infrastructure trends and help evaluate their application to Ghost’s platform

• BA/BS in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field, or equivalent experience
• 5+ years of infrastructure or systems engineering experience, with a minimum of 3 years at a high-growth startup
• Strong hands-on experience with AWS (VPC, EC2, RDS, S3, IAM, Route53, security groups, and related services), as well as experience with platforms like Railway or Vercel
• Experience managing enterprise office networking, including switches, firewalls, VLANs, and Wi-Fi
• Solid understanding of security best practices and compliance frameworks (SOC 2, access control, certificate management)
• Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform
