Amtech Hiring Associate Platform Engineer (SRE) in Bangalore

Amtech, backed by Vista Equity Partners, is scaling its Platform Engineering organization in India as its products move to a fully AWS-hosted, multi-tenant SaaS model. The SRE practice keeps Encore, LabelTraxx, and supporting platforms reliable, observable, and secure across a multi-account AWS estate.

As an Associate Platform Engineer on the SRE track, you will learn reliability engineering by doing it: monitoring production services, executing runbooks, automating routine operations, and participating in incident response alongside senior engineers. This is an early-career role designed for growth — you will pair with experienced SREs, receive structured mentorship, and build the foundation to progress through Amtech's engineering career ladder.

Vista Equity Partners is a leading global investment firm focused exclusively on enterprise software, data, and technology-enabled businesses, with over $100B in assets under management and a portfolio of 90+ software product companies worldwide. Through its Agentic AI Factory, Vista embeds Generative AI across its global portfolio, reinforced through portfolio-wide learning programs, leadership workshops, and AI hackathons.

• Operate and tune monitoring, logging, and alerting for production services using the OpenTelemetry-based observability stack (Open Observe, CloudWatch)

• Assist with root cause analysis after incidents, documenting findings and follow-up actions
• Automate routine operational tasks with Python or Bash and contribute to Terraform modules under senior review
• Support containerized and serverless workloads on ECS Fargate, EKS, and Lambda
• Support CI/CD workflows in GitHub Actions and assist with environment provisioning
• Create and maintain runbooks and operational playbooks
• Join the on-call rotation with senior backup, responding to PagerDuty alerts and executing documented recovery procedures
• Propose improvements that reduce mean time to detection (MTTD) and mean time to recovery (MTTR)
• Apply IAM, secrets management, and least-privilege practices in production environments
• Follow Amtech's SOC 2, ISO 27001, and internal security policies, and help maintain audit evidence
• Use AI-assisted engineering tools with review discipline, never applying unreviewed AI-generated changes to any environment
• Learn from senior SREs through paired work, design reviews, and post-incident reviews

• 0-2 years of experience in SRE, DevOps, systems, or cloud engineering (internships and substantial personal or academic projects count)
• Demonstrated ability to script in Python or Bash and to reason methodically through technical problems
• Foundational knowledge of AWS core services (EC2, S3, IAM, VPC) or equivalent cloud fundamentals
• Familiarity with Linux administration and basic networking (DNS, HTTP, TCP/IP)
• Exposure to Git-based workflows (GitHub or similar)
• Strong analytical and troubleshooting instincts; eager to learn from production systems
• Safe, effective use of AI assistants, including a verification habit before accepting output
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related discipline, or equivalent demonstrated skills

Preferred qualifications:

• AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner or Solutions Architect Associate
• Exposure to Terraform, Docker, or Kubernetes
• Understanding of SLO/SLI concepts and incident management workflows
• Experience with monitoring tools (CloudWatch, Prometheus, Grafana, or OpenTelemetry-based stacks)
