Aikido creates CVE-free container images at an unprecedented pace, enabling you to fix vulnerabilities for all projects without risking any breakage. Backed by Insight.

About the role

Own and operate Aikido’s AWS GovCloud infrastructure in support of our FedRAMP environment. Maintain and improve Kubernetes-based platform infrastructure for reliability, performance, and security.

More about this role

Security tools haven’t kept up with how software is built today. They interrupt teams, slow releases, and turn security into a bottleneck instead of a capability. We built Aikido to change that. Aikido builds developer-first security products that reduce real risk without getting in the way of shipping software. We focus on what actually matters and automate the rest.

We’re taking on legacy security tools teams have been stuck with, and we’re winning. If you want to help us take market share and build products developers actually enjoy using, you’re in the right place.

Founded in 2022 by third-time founders, Aikido has $85M in the bank, a long runway ahead, and unicorn status. We’re building toward self-securing software. Join an all-star team. Take real ownership. Push boundaries. Build things that matter.

As a Senior Cloud Engineer at Aikido, you’ll own and operate the cloud infrastructure behind our U.S. public sector cloud environment. You’ll play a critical role in supporting our AWS GovCloud infrastructure, helping translate changes from the broader platform into a regulated environment, and servicing as a key technical operator on the front lines of our infrastructure.
