Job Description

The Role

On the HashiCorp engineering team, we build the Infrastructure Cloud which allows enterprises to take a unified approach to Infrastructure and Security Lifecycle Management.

It is a dedicated, single-tenant Vault deployment, managed by HashiCorp, that offers enhanced security, operational simplicity, and compliance readiness without the burden of self-managing Vault infrastructure.You can use the same CLI, API, and UI to communicate with HCP Vault Dedicated as you use to communicate with a self-hosted Vault Enterprise.
