Apply today and help us shape the future of work—together We are seeking a **Senior AWS DevOps / Platform Engineer** to design, automate, and operate secure self-service AWS platform capabilities for development teams. This role will own the foundation for governed multi-account provisioning, federated access, reusable Infrastructure as Code templates, and Git-based promotion workflows that move validated workloads across controlled environments. The ideal candidate has hands-on experience with AWS Control Tower, AWS Organizations, deep Terraform and CloudFormation-based IaC implementation, identity federation, service control policies, CI/CD automation, centralized logging, and cost governance in large-scale engineering environments. **Role Summary** This role is responsible for building governed AWS platform capabilities that allow application and engineering teams to request, receive, use, and retire secure cloud accounts and environments with minimal manual cloud-engineering involvement. The engineer will combine AWS Control Tower, AWS Organizations, Account Factory for Terraform or an equivalent account-vending workflow, federated identity, SCP-based guardrails, reusable IaC modules, and automated delivery pipelines to create a scalable platform service. - The role requires a platform-engineering mindset focused on automation, standardization, developer enablement, security, cost control, and operational governance. **What You’ll Build** - An AWS Control Tower landing zone with governed organizational units and automated account vending, implemented through Account Factory for Terraform or an equivalent AWS Organizations-based workflow. - Integration with a self-service provisioning workflow, triggered through a portal, ServiceNow, or similar request interface, that creates fully governed AWS accounts and environments in minutes. - Account request intake that captures owner, team, business purpose, duration, budget tier, and approved AWS regions. - Federated identity and short-lived role assumption for cloud access, including standard developer roles and elevated administrator roles constrained by SCPs and least-privilege controls. - Reusable Infrastructure as Code modules and templates for common application patterns, including containerized applications on EKS, event-driven services, managed databases, and network-isolated test stacks. - A Git-based promotion pipeline that moves validated IaC through code review, automated validation, and environment-scoped deployment into staging and production. - Lifecycle automation for account and environment expiration, extension requests, decommissioning, and cleanup of unused resources. **Key Responsibilities** - Design, build, and operate organizational units and account-vending automation so standard cloud environment requests can be fulfilled without manual cloud-engineering work. - Implement organization-level guardrails, including SCPs that block unacceptable actions, enforce region restrictions, and enable required logging and security services by default during account creation. - Build and enforce per-account cost controls, i…
