We're seeking an exceptional Principal Cloud Platform Engineer to play a pivotal role in shaping a secure, resilient and highly scalable cloud platform that underpins advanced AI-powered products and services. This is a principal-level, hands-on engineering position with significant technical influence and ownership.
Working closely with senior engineering and business leaders, you'll define and execute the cloud platform strategy, establishing best practices across cloud architecture, infrastructure-as-code, DevSecOps, observability, security, reliability and AI governance. If you enjoy solving complex engineering challenges, influencing technical direction and building secure systems at scale, we'd love to hear from you.
What You'll Be Doing
- Designing and operating secure, multi-account AWS environments.
- Establishing standards for identity, networking, encryption, secrets management, logging and disaster recovery.
- Building reusable platform components and deployment patterns to improve engineering productivity.
- Developing event-driven architectures using AWS services including Lambda, API Gateway, EventBridge and Step Functions.
- Supporting container-based workloads using ECS, Fargate and, where appropriate, Kubernetes.
- Implementing Infrastructure as Code using AWS CDK, Terraform/OpenTofu and CloudFormation.
- Building secure CI/CD pipelines with automated testing, policy enforcement and deployment controls.
- Driving software supply chain security and cloud security best practices.
- Defining observability standards across metrics, logs, traces and security telemetry.
- Establishing secure approaches for AI-enabled engineering, foundation models and agent-based systems.
- Improving resilience through testing, incident response readiness and disaster recovery exercises.
