Staff Cloud Engineer (Platform Infrastructure)

Role Overview

We are seeking a Staff Cloud Engineer who combines deep architectural thinking with elite hands-on execution. This role will lead the design and implementation of our AWS cloud platform, driving the migration of a complex global on-premise ecosystem into a secure, scalable, multi-account cloud architecture.

This role requires deep expertise in both Infrastructure as Code (Terraform/Terragrunt) and configuration management (Ansible) to support a hybrid platform spanning on-prem and AWS environments.

You will operate at the intersection of platform engineering, infrastructure as code, networking, and cloud governance, enabling engineering teams to build and operate reliably at scale.

Key Responsibilities

Design and build a scalable AWS multi-account architecture using Control Tower and AFT (Account Factory for Terraform)

Lead infrastructure as code (IaC) strategy using Terraform and Terragrunt, ensuring modular, reusable, and production-grade patterns

Architect and implement hub-and-spoke networking, including Cloud WAN, VPC sharing (RAM), routing, and hybrid connectivity (VPN)

Drive on-prem to AWS migration, including workload modernization and environment standardization

Own and evolve Ansible-based provisioning and configuration workflows across all environments

Ensure tight integration between Terraform-provisioned infrastructure and Ansible-configured application stacks

Refactor and standardize Ansible roles, playbooks,



and inventories for scalability and maintainabilitquirement)
