Altana is the network for trusted trade. Our AI-powered product network empowers governments and businesses to build a more resilient and secure global economy while keeping trade flowing. The Opportunity at Altana The Cloud Engineering team is hiring a Senior Engineering Manager to lead the group that owns Altana's regulated and sovereign environments. These are the accredited, compliance-constrained deployments our government customers run on, including our FedRAMP environments and dedicated sovereign clusters. You will report to the Senior Director of Platform Engineering and lead a team of three to four engineers across the US, UK, and Australia. The usual playbook does not apply here. Connectivity and automation are constrained and accreditation obligations shape engineering decisions well before anyone opens a design doc. Your job is to make this domain work like a platform instead of a set of individual builds, so that each new accredited environment launches faster than the one before it, and so product teams can keep shipping without having to absorb the regulatory complexity themselves. Your Responsibilities Own the architecture and operation of our regulated and sovereign environments across AWS and Azure, along with the IaC (Infrastructure-as-Code), Kubernetes, and release tooling beneath them Lead the standardization of environment builds into a repeatable blueprint, so the number of environments can grow without headcount growing with it Make sure critical technical decisions in the domain are sound, through design review, RFCs, prototypes, and whiteboard sessions, and hold the quality bar on what the team ships Stay close to the work with hands-on engineering of your own, usually operational tooling or greenfield projects Work with our Security and Compliance team to embed secure-by-default patterns across your environments and make control evidence a routine output of how the team works Keep accreditations healthy, with vulnerability remediation insi
