Job Description

Job Overview:

We are seeking a highly skilled Cloud Engineer with deep expertise in infrastructure automation, CI/CD integration, and cloud-native security practices. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience architecting, implementing, and maintaining robust, secure, and scalable cloud environments in AWS, with a strong preference for those who have worked on regulated workloads (e.g., FedRAMP, HIPAA, or DoD-compliant systems).

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design and implement Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform and/or AWS CloudFormation.
  • Build and maintain automated CI/CD pipelines integrating with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or similar tools.
  • Develop robust monitoring and observability solutions using tools like Prometheus, Grafana, CloudWatch, and ELK.
  • Configure and manage container orchestration platforms, particularly Amazon EKS or self-managed Kubernetes clusters.
  • Implement least-privilege access control using IAM, roles, policies, and service-linked identities.
  • Conduct security threat modeling and implement proactive controls (e.g., WAF, security groups, logging agents, GuardDuty).
  • Optimize cloud resource cost, usage, and resilience through architectural reviews and performance benchmarking.
  • Collaborate with DevSecOps and compliance teams to ensure adherence to NIST 800-53, CIS Benchmarks, and other frameworks.
  • Manage automated patching and AMI pipelines using tools like Packer and AWS Systems Manager.
  • Provide root cause analysis and incident response for infrastructure-level issues and security incidents.

Required Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience.
  • 4+ years of hands-on experience with AWS, with at least 2 years focused on infrastructure automation and security.
  • Proficiency in Terraform (0.13+), Helm, and Kubernetes manifest templating.
  • Experience configuring and tuning AWS services including VPC, ECS/EKS, IAM, Lambda, and KMS.
  • Strong command-line and scripting abilities (Bash, Python, or Go preferred).
  • Deep understanding of cloud networking: route tables, NAT gateways, PrivateLink, and Transit Gateways.
  • Familiarity with automated compliance scanning tools like ScoutSuite, Prowler, or OpenSCAP.
  • Experience integrating SAST/SCA tooling into CI pipelines (e.g., SonarQube, Snyk, Trivy).
  • Strong knowledge of container lifecycle, image hardening, and runtime security.
