Platform Engineer

Cloud Platform Engineering & Core Infrastructure

• Build and operate foundational AWS services including VPCs, Transit Gateway, Direct Connect/VPN, IAM, KMS, CloudWatch, and ECS/EKS.
• Implement secure, scalable compute, storage, and networking patterns aligned with Landing Zone architecture.
• Deploy and manage container platforms (ECS Fargate, EKS, or Kubernetes variants) supporting modernization of legacy middleware.
• Build platform services such as service mesh, API gateways, logging pipelines, and centralized monitoring.
• Implement secrets management, encryption, and secure service?to?service communication.
• Support migration of VMware, Windows, Linux, and middleware workloads into AWS using standardized platform patterns.
• Ensure platform components meet CJIS, COV, and Zero Trust requirements for authentication, authorization, logging, and auditability.
• Apply AI?assisted observability, anomaly detection, and predictive alerting to improve platform reliability.

Infrastructure as Code, Automation & Self?Service Enablement

• Build and maintain IaC using Terraform, CloudFormation, and Ansible for AWS and hybrid environments.
• Develop reusable Terraform modules, CloudFormation templates, and platform blueprints for consistent provisioning.
• Implement Git?based IaC workflows with automated plan/apply pipelines (GitHub, GitLab, Azure Repos).
• Automate provisioning of accounts, networks, compute, and platform services using AWS Service Catalog, AFT, or custom automation.
• Implement drift detection and automated remediation using Terraform Cloud/Enterprise, Atlantis, or AWS native tools.
• Build runbook automation using AWS Systems Manager, Ansible Automation Platform.
• Enable self?service provisioning for application teams through templates, catalogs, and automation workflows.
• Use generative AI to accelerate IaC creation, documentation, and operational runbook generation.
