We are looking for an experienced Cloud Engineer to lead the design, reliability, and ongoing improvement of cloud infrastructure. This role focuses on building secure, resilient, and high-performing AWS environments while partnering closely with engineering and operations teams to support critical systems. The ideal candidate brings strong hands-on expertise in infrastructure automation, observability, and incident management, along with the ability to drive operational excellence across a modern cloud platform.

Responsibilities:

• Manage and enhance AWS core infrastructure components, including VPCs, Route 53, CDNs, load balancers, and EC2 services, to support secure and highly available operations.

• Build and refine multi-zone disaster recovery and resiliency solutions, and validate recovery readiness through recurring testing and review.

• Respond to production issues with cross-functional teams by diagnosing failures, identifying root causes, and implementing long-term corrective measures.

• Develop and maintain observability practices using tools such as CloudWatch and Datadog, including logging, metrics, dashboards, and alerting.

• Evaluate cloud environments for performance, scalability, and cost improvements, and recommend changes that strengthen operational efficiency.

• Create and support infrastructure automation using Terraform, CloudFormation, or AWS CDK to standardize provisioning and configuration management.

• Improve deployment workflows by contributing to CI/CD pipelines and automation processes using tools such as GitHub Actions, Harness, or similar platforms.

• Maintain clear technical documentation for infrastructure designs, configurations, procedures, and support practices.

• Partner with developers, system administrators, and security stakeholders to align cloud architecture with business and technical requirements.

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related discipline, or equivalent practical experience.
• 10+ years of hands-on cloud engineering experience, including significant depth in AWS environments.
• Required AWS certification; advanced AWS certifications are strongly preferred.
• Strong experience with infrastructure as code and automation tools such as Terraform, CloudFormation, Ansible, or AWS CDK.
• Proficiency with AWS services including EC2, VPC, Auto Scaling, Route 53, and DynamoDB.
• Experience supporting CI/CD and DevOps practices with tools such as GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, JIRA, or similar platforms.
• Solid scripting skills in languages such as Python or PowerShell for automation and operational tasks.
• Ability to work independently, deliver against defined requirements, and collaborate effectively in technical discussions with senior engineers and architects.
