Role purpose
You’ll build and run the AWS infrastructure “base layer” using Infrastructure as Code
(Terraform), and create automation (preferably Python) to make provisioning, configuration, and
operations repeatable, secure, and fast. You’ll work closely with architects, security, and
application teams to deliver reliable cloud platforms and CI/CD-enabled infrastructure.
Key responsibilities
Build AWS infrastructure foundations using Terraform (networking, IAM, compute,
storage, logging/monitoring, security baselines).
Translate high-level architecture into reusable Terraform modules and environment
patterns (dev/test/prod).
Implement automation using Python (preferred) for operational tasks such as
provisioning helpers, config validation, tagging/governance checks, drift detection, report
generation, etc.
Own CI/CD integration for infrastructure deployments using Jenkins (e.g., plan/apply
workflows, approvals, promotions).
Use Ansible for configuration management and post-provisioning tasks where
appropriate.
Administer and troubleshoot Linux-based systems used in cloud workloads and build
agents.
Ensure infrastructure meets security, resiliency, and cost-management standards (least
privilege, encryption, logging, backups, HA).
Collaborate with stakeholders to define standards: naming/tagging, module versioning,
branching strategy, and release controls.
Troubleshoot incidents and deployment issues; perform root cause analysis and
implement preventive improvements.
Produce and maintain technical documentation (runbooks, module READMEs,
onboarding guides).
Required skills (must-have)
Terraform: strong hands-on experience building AWS infrastructure; modules, state
management, remote backends, workspaces/environment separation, lifecycle patterns.
AWS: solid understanding of core services (VPC, subnets, routing, IAM, EC2, ALB/NLB,
Auto Scaling, S3, KMS, CloudWatch, CloudTrail, Security Groups/NACLs).
Linux: operating system fundamentals, networking basics, troubleshooting, permissions,
system services.
Ansible: playbooks/roles, inventories, variables, idempotent configuration patterns.
Jenkins: pipeline creation/maintenance; integrating Terraform workflows; secrets
handling and approvals.
Scripting: Python preferred (any one scripting language acceptable); ability to write
maintainable automation and tooling (APIs, CLI utilities, JSON/YAML handling).
Good to have
GCP: exposure to GCP services and comparable IaC patterns (multi-cloud awareness).
Container fundamentals (Docker/Kubernetes) and cloud-native observability practices.
Experience with security tooling or policy-as-code (e.g., Sentinel/OPA), if used in your
environment.
