Opto is engineering the future of private markets to improve client outcomes and drive capital to the most transformative ideas.
The opportunity is huge. The global alternative investments industry is forecast to grow to $30T by 2029, however the private investment process typically remains opaque, highly manual, and error-prone, which limits access to the select few insiders who are willing to bear the pain.
Opto is a revolutionary end-to-end solution for wealth managers of any size- from small investment advisors to large multi-family offices to private banks- to build, fundraise for, and manage private markets programs at scale. We combine exceptional Silicon Valley engineering talent with experienced investors and industry specialists to fix this broken system through the power of technology. Our platform banishes the nightmare of slide decks, spreadsheets, and paperwork to the past, and arms our clients with the tools, data, and guidance to identify and access the right opportunities for their clients.
Fixing private markets will not be easy and demands courage, but we’re not afraid to do things differently. We are unapologetically bold. We value strong opinions, clear communication, and purposeful execution.
Up for the challenge? Come join us.
We're looking for a Principal AWS Infrastructure Engineer to own the technical strategy and hands-on execution of our AWS foundation, spanning EKS lifecycle management, multi-account architecture, and data governance controls. This is a high-leverage IC role for someone who has run Kubernetes in production at scale, thinks in terms of account boundaries and blast radius, and understands that data governance is now an infrastructure problem as much as a compliance one.
You'll be a technical authority on how we structure, secure, and evolve our AWS estate, partnering closely with Security, Compliance, and Data teams to make sure our infrastructure decisions hold up under audit (SOC 2 / FedRAMP-adjacent requirements) as well as under load. As Opto scales, this role will play a critical part in building infrastructure that grows with us.
Opto has a high bar for talent, and we are committed to building the best teams possible. Candidates are never subjected to discrimination based on race, citizenship, religion, ethnicity, gender or gender identity, sex, pregnancy, national origin, age, sensory, mental, or physical disability, or any other characteristic.
The successful candidate for this role can expect a generous compensation and benefits package. The cash salary range for this role is $170,000-$225,000 dependent on skills, experience and expected contribution.
All full time employees at Opto enjoy:
