Senior Cloud Infrastructure Engineer, Cloud Foundations

What You’ll Do

• Own and evolve the IaC execution platform (Terraform, Atlantis): how infrastructure changes are proposed, reviewed, and applied across the company

• Design and operate Lambda's cloud account, access, and IAM structure: organizational hierarchy, provisioning, and permission models

• Own the cloud network foundation: VPCs, Transit Gateway, and DNS, including the patterns other teams build on

• Drive AWS cloud governance: tagging standards, compliance guardrails, and cost visibility and accountability

• Implement least-privilege access and compliance automation in line with company requirements and policies, replacing manual access and provisioning work with self-service

• Help shape how this new team operates: its scope, priorities, and service boundaries

• Participate in an on-call rotation and keep the systems you own well-documented, reliable, and observable

Who You Are

• 6+ years of experience in cloud infrastructure, cloud platform, or cloud security engineering, or a closely related discipline

• Deep experience managing AWS at scale: multi-account organizations, IAM and permission boundaries, SCPs, and resource organization

• Strong foundation in infrastructure-as-code (Terraform) and the tooling around it: modules, state management, and automated plan/apply workflows

• Solid cloud networking fundamentals: VPC design, transit and hybrid connectivity, DNS, and edge/CDN configuration

• Comfortable writing the automation and tooling that runs the foundation (Go and/or Python), and treating it as a product: real users, real quality standards, and things that actually get adopted

• Use AI tools as a natural part of how you work, and hold their output to the same bar as your own: you review it, verify it, and own what ships

• Build for the many, not for one team or one use case

• Comfortable with ambiguity and clarifying ownership

• Distill the right problem out of the noise: ask the why behind the why

• Own what you build past the point it ships: monitor it, measure whether it actually helped, and act on what you learn

• Sweat the details and aren't satisfied until things run smoothly

Nice to Have

• Experience building agentic workflows that automate meaningful parts of infrastructure operations or governance

• Experience implementing controls for a compliance program (SOC 2, ISO 27001) without turning it into manual toil

• Cloud cost management and FinOps experience

• Hands-on experience with Azure, GCP, or OCI alongside AWS
