Cloud Computing Engineer

What You'll Do

• Design, build, and operate Kubernetes clusters on Amazon EKS, including cluster lifecycle management, networking, autoscaling, and workload scheduling.
• Manage and optimize EC2-based compute infrastructure, including instance selection, placement strategies, capacity planning, and utilization analysis.
• Operate and improve ECS-based services where applicable, ensuring consistency across our container runtime environments.
• Develop and maintain Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform to provision and manage compute resources at scale.
• Collaborate with development and platform teams to define compute patterns, containerization standards, and deployment best practices.
• Monitor compute environments for availability, performance, and cost, driving continuous optimization across the fleet.
• Contribute to architectural decisions around workload placement, multi-tenancy, OS image and container lifecycle, and compute isolation strategies.

What's Required

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
• 5 to 10 years of strong hands-on experience with designing, configuring and operating Kubernetes in production, ideally on Amazon EKS, including familiarity with cluster operations, package management, autoscaling, service meshes, and observability tooling.
• Deep knowledge of other AWS compute and container services, particularly EC2 and ECS.
• Proficiency in Infrastructure as Code with Terraform.
• Experience with software development in Python.
• Solid understanding of Linux systems, container runtimes, and networking fundamentals.
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and GitOps workflows for infrastructure and application delivery.
• Strong grasp of cloud security principles, including IAM, network segmentation, and secrets management.
• Experience with other cloud platforms such as Azure or Google Cloud Platform a plus.
• Commitment to the highest ethical standards
