Job Description
About the Role
You will be the primary architect, operator, and developer-enablement partner for the client’s AWS engineering platform. This is a hands-on role responsible for designing, securing, scaling, and supporting the infrastructure, CI/CD services, developer tools, and observability capabilities that allow engineering teams to deliver software reliably. You will work across AWS, EKS/Kubernetes, Linux, networking, identity, automation, and shared engineering tools while mentoring teams on cloud-native practices.
Responsibilities
● Design and implement secure, multi-account structures and landing zones across AWS.
● Manage and evolve multi-cloud IAM, SSO, and Role-Based Access Controls (RBAC) to ensure least-privilege access.
● Enforce tagging standards, resource hierarchies, and cost-optimization strategies (rightsizing, idle resource elimination) to maintain fiscal accountability.
● Lead the deployment, scaling, and management of Kubernetes clusters (EKS, GKE, or self-managed). Manage CNI plugins, ingress controllers, and service meshes (Istio/Linkerd).
● Administer and optimize Linux (Ubuntu, Amazon Linux, RHEL) and Windows Server environments, ensuring hardened configurations and automated patching.
● Manage the intersection of cloud services and traditional OS-level dependencies, including Active Directory integration and file system performance tuning.
● Develop and maintain modular templates using Terraform, CloudFormation, or Pulumi.
● Build, orchestrate, and support CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins and Bitbucket, including webhooks, Jenkins agents, build/test stages, artifact publishing, approvals, deployments, rollback, notifications, and troubleshooting. Maintain GitOps workflows using GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Flux, or ArgoCD where applicable.
● Design security controls including encryption at rest/transit (KMS), VPC Service Controls, and audit logging to meet SOC2, HIPAA, or FedRAMP standards.
● Leverage AI-native development tools (e.g., Cursor, GitHub Copilot) and LLM-powered agents to accelerate Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) authoring, automate complex root-cause analysis, and proactively optimize cloud utilization through predictive anomaly detection.
● Install, configure, administer, upgrade, and integrate shared engineering tools such as Jenkins, SonarQube, Polaris, and Trino. Configure authentication, permissions, databases or supporting services, backups, health checks, and CI/CD integrations; manage secure, role-based, auditable infrastructure access using StrongDM.
● Enable developers to onboard applications, create and manage jobs, consume standard pipeline templates, and troubleshoot build, test, scan, deployment, and environment issues.
● Provision and operate AWS infrastructure, EC2 instances, EKS clusters, worker nodes, networking, load balancers, storage, databases, and supporting services using Infrastructure as Code.
● Design and maintain SSO, IAM, Kubernetes RBAC, service accounts, secrets, and read/write access models with least-privilege controls and auditable access reviews.
● Define operational ownership for the engineering platform, including tool availability, capacity, patching, upgrades, backups, disaster recovery, certificates, plugin lifecycle, and documented runbooks.
● Establish monitoring and observability for infrastructure, EKS, CI/CD, shared tools, databases, and applications. Progress from availability monitoring and metrics to centralized logs, dashboards, tracing, SLI/SLO-based alerting, incident response, and root-cause analysis.
● Monitor service health indicators such as uptime, CPU/memory/disk, network, latency, errors, throughput, pod and node health, Jenkins queue and job failure rates, scan failures, Trino coordinator/worker health, database connectivity, storage capacity, certificates, security events, and access failures.
● Partner with developers and security teams to define onboarding standards, quality gates, vulnerability policies, deployment controls, alert thresholds, and platform documentation.

Experience You’ll Need
● Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field.
● 8+ years of experience in Cloud Engineering, SRE, or DevOps, with deep proficiency in AWS and/or GCP.
● Expert-level experience administering Linux (shell scripting, kernel tuning) and Windows Server (Active Directory, Group Policy, PowerShell).
● Proven track record of running production-grade Kubernetes workloads at scale, including experience with Helm and container security.
● Strong proficiency in Python, Go, or Bash for infrastructure automation and tool development.
● Solid understanding of VPC/VNet design, peering, Transit Gateways, and zero-trust security models.
Client scope note:
Requires hands-on ability to install or deploy, configure, integrate, secure, monitor, upgrade, and troubleshoot the listed tools—not only consume pre-provisioned services.
Preferred Qualifications
● Experience designing monitoring and observability from foundational infrastructure health through metrics, logs, dashboards, distributed tracing, SLI/SLOs, alerting, incident response, and continuous improvement using Prometheus, Grafana, ELK/OpenSearch, CloudWatch, OpenTelemetry, or equivalent tools.
● Background in migrating legacy Windows/Linux monolithic applications into containerized microservices.
● Relevant certifications:
AWS Solutions Architect Professional, Google Professional Cloud Architect, or Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA).
