Job Description:

Employees in this job function are responsible for designing, building and deploying cloud-based infrastructure and managed services to achieve scalability, flexibility and cost efficiencies for private and public cloud systems that support the business. They are focused on created opinionated cloud environments and systems like Storage as a service, Infrastructure as a service etc. that form building blocks used by other enterprise and product teams.

Key Responsibilities:

+ Designing and deploying various opinionated cloud environments and platforms aligned with enterprise architecture and security requirements while meeting the business-critical needs of internal customers.

+ Collaborate with enterprise architect, security teams, solution architects, product teams, etc. to design, build, and deploy cloud infrastructure solutions to meet the company’s needs for scalability, availability, performance and security.

+ Monitor system usage to predict future needs, ensuring that the organization scales its IT resources appropriately.

+ Develop automation scripts and IaC templates for configuring and provisioning complex cloud resources including identity services, virtual private cloud, gateways, SSL, Kubernetes clusters, NoSQL data stores, etc.

+ Integrate enterprise security and disaster recovery policies in cloud infrastructure configurations, ensuring data protection and data retention practices comply with industry regulations

+ Design, implement and optimize cloud-based storage solutions ensuring data availability, security and cost efficiency

+ Assist in the execution of technology strategy and implementation of engineering roadmaps, including optimizing cloud expenditure, maximizing resource usage and ensuring high availability across required geographic regions.

+ Evaluate new and emerging cloud technologies for incorporation into existing systems, assist in modernization efforts to prioritize and execute migrations of on-prem services to cloud systems.

Skills Required:

+ AWS – We expect the candidate to be able to define, deploy, and manage a complete application infrastructure in AWS using Terraform. This includes writing modular Terraform configurations to provision VPCs, subnets, route tables, security groups, and NACLs for robust networking. They should demonstrate proficiency in managing IAM roles, policies, and users for least-privilege access, configuring S3 buckets for various storage needs (e.g., static content hosting, logging with lifecycle policies), deploying and managing RDS instances (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL) with appropriate backups and replication strategies, and setting up Application Load Balancers (ALBs) or Network Load Balancers (NLBs) with target groups and health checks for high availability. Furthermore, they should understand and implement Terraform state management best practices, including remote state storage and locking, and be able to manage the full lifecycle of these resources from creation to updates and eventual destruction

+ Kubernetes – The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience provisioning Kubernetes clusters (e.g., EKS, GKE, AKS, or self-managed Kubeadm clusters) from scratch, including configuring networking, storage, and node pools. They should be adept at administering and troubleshooting clusters, which involves debugging pod failures, managing deployments, services, ingresses, and persistent volumes. We expect a strong understanding of core Kubernetes concepts like StatefulSets, DaemonSets, ConfigMaps, and Secrets. Furthermore, they should be familiar with common Kubernetes add-ons such as Prometheus for monitoring, Grafana for visualization, Fluentd/Fluent Bit for logging, and external-dns for DNS management. Experience with in-place cluster upgrades, including handling version compatibility and rollback strategies, is also crucial.

Skills Preferred:

+ GCP – While not strictly required, we would prefer candidates who can demonstrate experience provisioning and managing GCP resources programmatically. This includes using tools like Terraform, Google Cloud Deployment Manager, or gcloud CLI scripting to deploy resources such as Compute Engine instances, Cloud SQL databases, Cloud Storage buckets, VPC networks, and IAM policies within a GCP project. Familiarity with managing GCP projects, billing, and resource hierarchies through automation would be a significant advantage.

+ Python - Writes production-grade automation for cloud operations: CLIs and functions that interact with AWS/GCP SDKs, handle pagination/retries/backoff, and include tests and logging.

+ Builds small tools/services: e.g., cost/reporting jobs, security/compliance checks, drift detectors, secret rotation workflows, or data movers.

+ Packages code with virtual environments/poetry/pip-tools, structures modules cleanly, and integrates with CI/CD; comfortable with async/concurrency when needed.

Experience Required:

+ Engineer 3 Exp: Prac. In 2 coding lang. or adv. Prac. in 1 lang. 6+ years in IT; 4+ years in development

Education Required:

+ Bachelor's Degree
