Principal Infrastructure Engineer

NairobiHybridFull-time

AI Summary

Principal Infrastructure Engineer at PrismHR ensures high availability of HR, payroll, and benefits platforms by managing hybrid self-hosted and Azure infrastructure, automating operations, enforcing compliance, and leading disaster recovery and topology documentation.

About this role

Keep payroll available — then make it hard to break. ** PrismHR is the HR, payroll, and benefits platform used by employer-services organizations across the US, backed by Vensure Employer Solutions. Availability here is not an SLA conversation; it is whether people get paid. The environment is mid-transformation: self-hosted infrastructure and Azure, legacy and modern, at the same time. You will ensure availability and performance across hosting services, work with senior management on designing and supporting new hosted services, and spend real time making things better — automating manual work, enforcing compliance standards, evolving configuration management. You will also diagnose full-stack problems end to end (network, authentication, SSL, application), own topology documentation, build and test disaster recovery, and act as technical lead and mentor for the team.** You will need:
• • Bachelor's in Computer Science, MIS, or Engineering, plus 7–10 years relevant experience
• • Deep Linux, Windows, database, and networking knowledge
• • Puppet, Chef, or Ansible
• • Docker and container infrastructure
• • VMware and cloud infrastructure in a managed service environment
• • Strong scripting
• • Design-level expertise for SaaS platforms
Strongly desired: SOC 2 experience, certifications (RHCSA/RHCE, MCSA/MCSE, CCNA).
• The schedule: 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Eastern Time, Monday to Friday, first four hours from the Nairobi office and the rest from home. The role also includes after-hours maintenance windows and on-call rotation — worth weighing honestly before you apply, and we are happy to talk through what it looks like in practice. Competitive compensation, health coverage, certification sponsorship, growth toward Infrastructure Architect scope. Apply now.
