About The Role We are hiring a Senior Cloud Platform / DevOps / SRE Engineer to help migrate, modernize, operate, and improve infrastructure across a portfolio of businesses. This role will focus first on AWS , with future expansion into Azure and GCP .

The ideal candidate has experience moving legacy infrastructure from colo, hosted, data center, or existing cloud environments into AWS . This includes both colo-to-cloud and cloud-to-cloud migrations. Early work may include lift-and-shift migrations; over time, this role will help standardize, automate, secure, observe, and modernize those environments.

This is also a production reliability role . We expect this team to support production uptime, participate in on-call or escalation processes, and help ensure our infrastructure and deployment practices support reliable customer-facing systems.

This is an AI-first infrastructure role . We expect the right person to use AI tools to accelerate infrastructure analysis, Terraform/OpenTofu development, migration planning, CI/CD improvement, troubleshooting, documentation, automation, and operational remediation.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and support migrations from colo, hosted, legacy, and existing cloud environments into AWS.
• Assess current-state infrastructure, document dependencies, identify risks, and create practical migration, cutover, rollback, and validation plans.
• Map source environments — including networking, IAM, storage, databases, DNS, certificates, security controls, observability, and deployment workflows — into appropriate AWS target architectures.
• Build, maintain, and standardize cloud infrastructure using Terraform or OpenTofu, with awareness of AWS CDK/CloudFormation, Azure Bicep, Pulumi, and other cloud-native IaC tools.
• Operate and improve multi-account AWS environments using AWS Organizations and related governance patterns.
• Help establish a centralized cloud operating model across AWS, with a path toward Azure and GCP.
• Design and support cloud networking, IAM, security, logging, monitoring, backups, disaster recovery, and high availability patterns.
• Build and improve CI/CD pipelines for application and infrastructure deployments.
• Define opinionated best practices for infrastructure automation, CI/CD, observability, reliability, security, and cloud operations.
• Implement monitoring, logging, tracing, alerting, dashboards, and service health indicators so issues are detected quickly and resolved effectively.
• Build automation and self-healing workflows so common production failures can be corrected automatically where possible.
• Participate in production support, incident response, escalation, and on-call processes as needed.
• Partner with engineering teams to containerize legacy applications using Docker and deploy to ECS, EKS, Kubernetes, or similar platforms.
• Use AI tools to accelerate infrastructure analysis, IaC creation, pipeline development, troubleshooting, documentation, incident response, and operational automation.

Required Qualifications

• 7+ years of experience in DevOps, SRE, cloud infrastructure, platform engineering, systems engineering, or similar roles.
• Strong hands-on experience operating production workloads in AWS.
• Experience migrating infrastructure from colo, data center, hosted, legacy, or existing cloud environments into AWS.
• Experience with cloud-to-cloud migrations, including service mapping, data migration, networking, identity/access, DNS, cutover, rollback, and validation.
• Strong production experience with Terraform or OpenTofu, including modules, remote state, environments, plan/apply workflows, secrets handling, policy checks, and CI/CD integration.
• Experience with AWS networking, including VPCs, subnets, routing, VPNs, load balancers, DNS, certificates, NAT gateways, and security groups.
• Experience with AWS Organizations, IAM, centralized logging, cloud governance, and multi-account patterns.
• Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines for application and infrastructure delivery.
• Experience with observability, including monitoring, logging, alerting, dashboards, metrics, traces, and service health indicators.
• Experience owning or supporting production uptime, including incident response, on-call or escalation workflows, runbooks, alerting, and post-incident improvement.
• Strong troubleshooting skills across infrastructure, networking, application, and cloud layers.
• Demonstrated use of AI tools in infrastructure, DevOps, SRE, or software delivery workflows.
• Strong communication skills and ability to work across multiple engineering teams and business units.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with Azure and/or GCP in addition to AWS.
• Direct experience migrating workloads from Azure to AWS, GCP to AWS, or other cloud providers into AWS.
• Experience with Azure Bicep, AWS CDK/CloudFormation, Pulumi, or other infrastructure-as-code approaches.
• Experience with AWS Control Tower, IAM Identity Center, CloudTrail, Config, GuardDuty, Security Hub, or similar governance and security services.
• Experience with Azure management groups, subscriptions, policies, identity, networking, and governance patterns.
• Experience with GCP organizations, folders, projects, IAM, networking, and organization policies.
• Experience with Docker, ECS, EKS, Kubernetes, Helm, or other container platforms.
• Experience containerizing legacy applications and moving them toward automated deployment models.
• Experience with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps, Jenkins, Argo CD, CircleCI, or similar CI/CD platforms.
• Experience with Datadog, New Relic, Grafana, Prometheus, CloudWatch, OpenTelemetry, ELK/OpenSearch, Splunk, or similar observability platforms.
• Experience with automated remediation, self-healing infrastructure, auto-scaling, event-driven operations, and runbook automation.
• Experience with policy-as-code, security-as-code, backup, disaster recovery, high availability, and compliance automation.
• Enough application architecture knowledge to assess whether an application should be lifted-and-shifted, containerized, re-platformed, or more deeply modernized.
