Job description

Join to apply for the Senior Infrastructure Engineer role at Basis .

About Us

At Basis , we’re not just building a company — we’re building the future. We’re redesigning the electrical systems that power our homes to fight climate change, reduce household costs, and create a better future for generations to come. That means rethinking everything, not just what we build, but how we build it. To do this, we need incredible people : bold, creative, sharp, thoughtful, who move fast and think differently. That’s where you come in.

The Role

We are seeking a highly autonomous Senior Infrastructure Engineer to lead the growth and optimisation of the AWS infrastructure supporting our ecosystem. As the main owner of our platform infrastructure, you will be at the heart of our technical operations, taking charge of our existing systems with the freedom to architect and implement significant improvements.

  • Architect and Own AWS Infrastructure : Take full ownership of design, deployment and management of the Basis cloud ecosystem on AWS, ensuring it is secure, scalable, and cost‑effective.
  • Drive Infrastructure as Code (IaC) : Lead our IaC strategy by building and maintaining clean, reusable, and robust Terraform modules for all cloud resources.
  • Manage Container Orchestration : Administer and scale Kubernetes clusters (EKS), managing lifecycle of cluster components, networking and containerized workloads.
  • Implement Cloud Security : Work with our security architect and engineer to implement cloud security best practices, including managing IAM roles and policies, network security (VPCs, security groups) and data encryption.
  • Drive the Infrastructure Roadmap : Proactively identify performance bottlenecks, technical debt and areas for improvement. Develop a forward‑looking roadmap to keep our platform scalable and resilient.
  • Contribute to CI / CD Pipelines : Work with backend engineers to improve continuous integration and deployment pipelines, empowering them to ship software rapidly and safely.
  • Develop the Observability Platform : Build and manage the core observability stack, providing tools and frameworks that engineers use to instrument applications for monitoring, logging and alerting.
  • And more!

About You

  • 8+ years of hands‑on experience in a platform / infrastructure engineering role.
  • Strong production‑level experience managing IaC using Terraform.
  • Proven experience with containerisation (Docker) and orchestration (Kubernetes), preferably with a managed service like AWS EKS.
  • Experience designing, building and maintaining automated CI / CD pipelines using tools such as GitHub Actions.
  • Proficiency in at least one scripting or programming language (e.g., Python, Go, Bash) for automation and tooling.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with a demonstrated ability to work effectively with backend engineering teams.
  • Experience with modern observability and monitoring tools.
  • Nice to Have

  • Experience with IoT.
  • Knowledge of cloud security best practices and vulnerability management, including compliance frameworks such as SOC 2.
  • Experience with cloud cost management and optimisation strategies.
  • Benefits

  • A competitive salary and employee share scheme (ESOP).
  • Unlimited annual leave.
  • Tools of trade, including laptop and headphone allowance.
  • Flexible hours focused on outcomes.
  • Office dogs, steady supply of fresh fruit and snacks.
  • Access to Clearhead wellbeing programme.
  • Diversity and inclusion commitment (Pride Committee, DEIB etc.).
  • Parental leave policy topping wages up to 100% for primary caregiver for up to 22 weeks and 6 weeks for secondary caregivers.
  • Opportunities to learn and develop from industry leaders.
  • Applying
