Must have skills : Network Infrastructures Good to have skills : NA Minimum 5 Year(s) Of Experience Is Required Educational Qualification : 15 years full time education Summary: The Cloud Network Automation Engineer (SDE - III) is responsible for designing, implementing, and operating cloud-based network infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (IaC), while enabling secure, scalable, and governable networking across multi-cloud environments. This role places a strong emphasis on Terraform-driven network provisioning, governance-aligned operations, and the implementation of AI-assisted tooling for monitoring, troubleshooting, and continuously improving cloud network strategies. This position sits at the intersection of networking, cloud engineering, automation, security, and operations, and partners closely with Cloud Engineering, SRE, Networking, Security, and Platform teams to ensure cloud network architectures are resilient, observable, and aligned with enterprise standards across AWS, Azure, and OCI, as well as supporting CI/CD platforms.

Roles & Responsibilities: Infrastructure as Code (IaC) & Network Automation Design, implement, and maintain cloud networking infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code, with a primary focus on: Terraform and/or Terragrunt for multi-setting and multi-account deployments

Reusable, modular network patterns for VPCs, vNets, and VCNs, including routing and security boundaries Standardize network provisioning and configuration workflows to ensure consistency, repeatability, and auditability across environments. Partner with Cloud Engineering teams to integrate network IaC into CI/CD pipelines and deployment workflows. AI-Enabled Monitoring, Troubleshooting & Strategy Leverage AI-assisted and intelligent tooling to enhance:



Network monitoring and anomaly detection

Root-cause analysis and accelerated troubleshooting

Predictive insights for capacity, performance, and risk Contribute to the design and adoption of AI-driven operational practices that improve network reliability, security posture, and mean-time-to-resolution. Collaborate with SRE and Platform teams to align AI-enabled insights with incident response, alerting, and operational runbooks.

Cloud

Governance & Operational Support Support cloud governance initiatives including: Network-related tagging and metadata enforcement

Default and orphaned resource identification and cleanup

Cross-environment and cross-account access validation Assist with operational troubleshooting, alert response, and outage triage related to cloud networking and connectivity issues. Participate in compliance and remediation activities by providing required network configuration, access validation, and cleanup support.

Networking

Expertise & Security Collaboration Provide hands-on expertise in cloud networking concepts including: CIDR classification and IP address management

Network segmentation and reachability analysis

VPN and secure access validation Work closely with Networking and Security teams on the deployment, operation, and troubleshooting of Cisco Secure Access and Cisco Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) platforms within cloud environments. Ensure network designs and implementations align with enterprise security controls and zero-trust principles. Documentation & Knowledge Sharing Document infrastructure patterns, network architectures, and operational procedures using: Jira tickets and operational runbooks





Confluence documentation

Repository-based documentation (README files, architecture diagrams, ADRs) Promote high-quality documentation that supports operational handoff, audit readiness, and self-service adoption.
