AWS Cloud Platform Engineer – AWS and Terraform
Need to be a US Citizens Only
This is a HYBRID role in office 3 days a week in Des Moines, IA
Interview – Virtual (MS Teams)
Relocation acceptable but need to be onsite day one!
This
role supports enterprise modernization goals by providing support for
modern approaches to hybrid-cloud administrative and engineering
practices to eliminate expensive and inefficient legacy solutions, while
improving operational efficiency, reducing manual intervention, and
enabling scalable infrastructure solutions. 5 or more years of
experience required in the following areas:
Designs,
maintains, and optimizes hybrid platforms that bridge on-premises
infrastructure with AWS cloud services, aligning with the shift toward
cloud-centric operations: - Designing and administering AWS environments
(EC2, VPC, IAM, S3) to support enterprise workloads.
-
Creating hybrid workload patterns where identity, authentication, and
application services function seamlessly across cloud and on-premises
systems. - Migrating legacy systems to AWS, including developing
modernization roadmaps and workload readiness assessments.
· Documenting system architectures and producing AWS architecture diagrams showing network topology, dependencies, and service interactions. Provides senior-tier support for issues escalated from Service Desk, Applications, Networking, or automation teams:
· Diagnosing complex AWS identity, network, or compute issues affecting dependent applications. - Documenting troubleshooting workflows, root causes, and long-term mitigation strategies.
· Guiding teams through hybrid dependency failures such as directory sync disruptions, routing conflicts, or misconfigured IAM policies. Ensures platform resilience by monitoring, optimizing, and maintaining cloud and on-prem compute, storage, networking, and identity components:
· Eliminate single points of failure in designs patterns - Provide backup, recovery, and DR to meet all RTO/RPO requirements. - Implementing performance dashboards covering compute utilization, storage I/O, and network throughput across AWS and on-prem.
· Conducting root-cause analysis for performance issues and documenting remediation steps. - Identifying cost optimization opportunities through instance rightsizing, storage tier adjustments, and lifecycle automation.
· Maintaining architecture diagrams, standards, IaC manifests, and operational procedures in version-controlled environments. - Preparing change impact statements for major infrastructure modifications.
· Creating release documentation for platform updates promoted through CI/CD pipelines. Ensuring consistency across platform standards, enforcement rules, and automation artifacts. Works closely with automation specialist and other team members to ensure infrastructure deployments follow consistent, automated, and auditable patterns:
· Defining IaC patterns and collaborating on Terraform module designs. - Documenting provisioning workflows, configuration standards, and parameter usage for automated deployments.
· Supporting CI/CD infrastructure pipelines that promote test, staging, and production environments through automated checks. - Collaborate with engineering and application teams to optimize workloads for hybrid cloud environments.
· Provide guidance on migration strategies, performance tuning, and cost optimization for hybrid-cloud deployments. Maintain comprehensive documentation for hybrid cloud architecture, operational procedures, and automation workflows. Ensure documentation supports knowledge transfer and compliance audits
