About the role

Emergence is a thematic holding company backed by the Pritzker Organization focused exclusively on acquiring and scaling category-defining software businesses. We invest in focused portfolios, specialized operating groups with deep domain expertise and proven playbooks. Emergence combines operational rigor with a growth equity mindset, driving sustainable ARR growth, profitability improvements, and industry-leading customer outcomes. The Mission You're building the infrastructure foundation that runs across a growing portfolio of B2B SaaS companies - not just maintaining existing pipelines, but designing the system from the ground up and making it production-ready for a team that ships fast.

Responsibilities

  • Own and evolve cloud infrastructure on AWS - ECS Fargate, ECR, ALB, VPC, and Secrets Manager - provisioned through Terraform or AWS CDK
  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines via GitHub Actions - Docker image builds, rolling deployments with health checks, and rollback procedures
  • Manage the containerized production stack - Node 20, Express 5, BullMQ, Valkey, and Neon Postgres via pgBouncer
  • Own observability end to end - Grafana, Loki, Promtail, and CloudWatch - with alerting that catches issues before users report them
  • Define and enforce environment strategy - dev, staging, and production with proper isolation, branch protection, and deployment governance
  • Harden security posture - IAM scoping, AWS Secrets Manager, dependency scanning in CI, and SSL/TLS across all services
  • Maintain Linux VPS and Windows Server infrastructure running Python automation services via systemd and NSSM
  • Write runbooks, disaster recovery procedures, and incident response playbooks for all critical services

Requirements

  • 5+ years of hands-on production DevOps, platform engineering, or SRE experience
  • Shipped and maintained IaC using Terraform or AWS CDK on real production systems
  • Designed CI/CD pipelines from scratch - not just maintained existing ones
  • Managed containerized workloads in production using Docker and AWS ECS
  • Owned an observability stack - structured logging, dashboards, and alerting - not just set it up
  • Hardened a production environment - secrets management, IAM policies, dependency scanning, SSL/TLS
  • Administered Linux servers in production - system design, process management, server hardening
  • Responded to and led resolution of production incidents with documented post-mortems
  • PostgreSQL operations - connection pooling, pgBouncer, Neon serverless
  • BullMQ or Redis/Valkey in production
  • Windows Server administration - NSSM, Task Scheduler
  • Snyk, Trivy, or equivalent dependency scanning in CI
  • AWS Solutions Architect or equivalent certification
