Job Description

Position Summary:

We are seeking a highly technical Cloud Engineer with deep experience in infrastructure-as-code (IaC), automated provisioning, and hybrid cloud environments. This role is central to designing, maintaining, and securing our cloud-native and legacy workloads across AWS and on-premise Kubernetes clusters.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design and maintain scalable, resilient, and secure cloud infrastructure primarily on AWS (EC2, ECS, EKS, RDS, S3, Lambda) with integrations to on-prem systems.
  • Develop and manage Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) using Terraform (v1+) with modularized architecture and automated state management.
  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions and ArgoCD for application deployment to Kubernetes.
  • Configure and manage Kubernetes clusters (self-hosted and EKS) including custom controllers, RBAC policies, service meshes (Istio or Linkerd), and network policies.
  • Implement centralized logging, monitoring, and alerting solutions using Prometheus, Grafana, ELK/EFK stack, and AWS CloudWatch.
  • Perform cost optimization through resource right-sizing, reserved instance planning, and architectural improvements.
  • Harden systems using cloud-native security services (AWS Security Hub, GuardDuty), custom IAM policies, and automated compliance enforcement (e.g., using OPA/Gatekeeper).
  • Collaborate with development teams to containerize legacy apps and migrate them to Kubernetes or ECS.
  • Participate in on-call rotation for production incidents and provide RCA with automation recommendations.

Required Qualifications:

  • 5+ years of hands-on cloud engineering experience with at least 3 years focused on AWS (not limited to console usage).
  • Expert-level proficiency in Terraform, including managing workspaces, remote state backends, and module versioning.
  • Strong experience with Kubernetes in production (not EKS-only), including Helm chart authoring and custom CRDs.
  • Experience with GitOps workflows and CI/CD tools such as GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, or FluxCD.
  • Proficiency in Linux (Bash scripting, systemd, networking, performance tuning).
  • Familiarity with container runtime internals (containerd or CRI-O) and debugging container performance issues.
  • Strong understanding of networking (VPC, subnets, route tables, security groups, VPN, NAT, DNS).
  • Experience managing secrets via tools like Vault or AWS Secrets Manager.
  • Ability to troubleshoot deeply (e.g., kernel-level diagnostics, iptables, cgroup behavior).
  • Comfortable with auditing and maintaining compliance with SOC 2 or ISO 27001 standards.
