We're seeking a Cloud Engineer to join our platform engineering team as an embedded member of development squads. In this role, you'll work directly alongside application developers, enabling their success through self-service infrastructure platforms, GitOps automation, and AI-powered tooling. You'll manage infrastructure supporting 4,000+ EKS workloads in AWS while building the next generation of developer-focused platforms that dramatically increase velocity.
This isn't a traditional infrastructure role. You'll be a strategic partner to developers, guiding cloud architecture decisions, building automation that eliminates toil, and leveraging AI to accelerate both infrastructure and application delivery.
What you'll do:
Platform Development & Developer Enablement
Build and maintain self-service infrastructure platforms that empower developers to provision and manage their own AWS resources
Work embedded within development squads as their cloud infrastructure guide and strategic partner
Design and implement reusable Terraform modules that enable consistent, scalable infrastructure patterns
Develop AI-powered automation tools that increase team velocity and reduce manual operational overhead
Create developer-friendly abstractions over complex infrastructure using GitOps workflows
Infrastructure as Code & GitOps
Implement GitOps practices using ArgoCD and Helm for automated deployments across EKS clusters
Build and maintain modular Terraform infrastructure supporting EKS, RDS PostgreSQL, Aurora PostgreSQL, and core AWS services
Leverage AI tools to accelerate Terraform module development, code review, and documentation
Design Terraform module libraries that balance flexibility with guardrails
Establish CI/CD pipelines that enable developers to safely deploy infrastructure changes
Cloud Architecture & Collaboration
Partner with developers to design cloud-native architectures optimized for AWS
Guide infrastructure decisions within development squads, translating application requirements into scalable AWS solutions
Collaborate with Cloud Architects and Security teams on infrastructure patterns and best practices
Implement highly available, scalable, and self-healing systems
Automation & Velocity
Develop Python and Bash automation that eliminates repetitive operational tasks
Strategically apply AI tools (code generation, infrastructure optimization) to accelerate delivery
Build monitoring, logging, and observability solutions that provide developers insight into their infrastructure
Continuously improve speed, efficiency, and scalability through automation-first thinking
