AI-Augmented Infrastructure-as-Code Specialist (Remote | Contract)

We are also hiring a specialist in Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) for AI Data Training who treats infrastructure like versioned software. You believe the future of infrastructure lies in declarative, verifiable, and AI-optimized definitions, with architecture translated directly into secure, scalable environments - automatically. This crucial role is tailored for a DevOps Engineer with the ability and enthusiasm to integrate their knowledge into the development of state-of-the-art AI models.

What You’ll Do

Develop AI Training Content

• Create coding prompts and responses that teach the AI how to define, maintain, and optimize declarative infrastructure using AI-assisted tooling.
• Simulate real-world scenarios that involve automated infrastructure generation and validation based on architectural blueprints to help the model learn from both human-readable design and low-level code representations.
• Incorporate exercises that bridge architecture diagrams and code, enabling the AI to understand diagram-to-code translation and infrastructure logic mapping.

Optimize AI Performance

• Evaluate AI outputs for their ability to suggest resilient, testable, and standards-compliant infrastructure definitions.
• Assess how effectively the AI applies policy-as-code principles and compliance-by-default patterns using intelligent scanning and linting tools.
• Continuously review the model's ability to assist with validation, optimization, and infrastructure drift detection, refining prompts where necessary.

Ensure Model Integrity

• Test the AI’s understanding of safe automation by embedding fail-safe mechanisms and changing predictability into its decision-making process.
• Validate that the model promotes best practices for secure, compliant, and efficient infrastructure design.
• Monitor for consistency and accuracy in how the AI handles infrastructure across various environments, including how it enforces policies and identifies misconfigurations.

We’re Looking For

• A strong understanding of Infrastructure-as-Code practices, driven by declarative intent and automation
• Experience translating complex architecture into scalable, repeatable, and testable configurations
• A belief in shifting left—automating validation, compliance, and resilience from the beginning
• Passion for working in high-autonomy, async, remote environments

Nice to Have

• Familiarity with AI tools that optimize or lint IaC definitions
• Experience with architectural diagram parsing or auto-documenting infrastructure
• Exposure to compliance-as-code, drift detection, and AI-assisted infrastructure audits

Keywords/Key skills

Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) Expertise

• Proficiency with tools like Terraform, Pulumi, AWS CloudFormation, or similar for declarative infrastructure management.

Cloud Architecture & Design

• Ability to translate high-level architecture into scalable, secure, and modular infrastructure components.

Policy-as-Code & Compliance Automation

• Experience implementing security and compliance checks using tools like Open Policy Agent (OPA), HashiCorp Sentinel, or Conftest.

CI/CD Pipeline Integration

• Understanding of integrating IaC with continuous integration and delivery systems for automated provisioning and testing.

Infrastructure Testing & Validation

• Familiarity with testing frameworks (e.g., Terratest, KitchenCI) and drift detection strategies to ensure environment consistency.

Mandatory Requirements:

English Proficiency: A Strong command of reading, writing, and speaking in English is required for this role. If you do not meet this requirement, we kindly ask that you refrain from applying at this time. We appreciate your interest in joining our team and look forward to reviewing your application.
