Infrastructure Automation - IaC; Infrastructure-as-Code) Engineer

Position: Infrastructure Automation - IaC (Infrastructure-as-Code) Engineer
Responsibilities We are seeking Infrastructure Automation / Infrastructure-as-Code Engineers to design, develop, and maintain the reusable automation that provisions and manages infrastructure, tenant environments, and platform services across a complex hybrid environment.

This role will transform approved infrastructure patterns into source-controlled, repeatable, and scalable automation, enabling consistent provisioning across cloud and on-premises environments while integrating infrastructure delivery with service-request and CI/CD workflows.

The ideal candidate is an automation-focused infrastructure engineer who enjoys eliminating manual processes and building reusable solutions that improve the speed, consistency, and reliability of large-scale environment provisioning. You will work closely with cloud, Kubernetes, platform, and operations engineers to turn established engineering patterns into production-ready automation.

Responsibilities Infrastructure-as-Code Develop and maintain reusable Terraform, Cloud Formation, Ansible, or comparable Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) solutions.

Create standardized environment and tenant templates based on approved deployment patterns.

Maintain infrastructure definitions in source control using peer review and controlled change processes.

Implement versioning, testing, rollback, and lifecycle-management practices for infrastructure automation.

Develop reusable modules and automation patterns that support consistent infrastructure deployment across environments.

Provisioning & Automation Integrate infrastructure automation with CI/CD pipelines and service-request workflows.

Support Service Now-driven provisioning where approved, including execution patterns for highly secure environments.

Automate repeatable configuration activities across networking, compute, storage, identity, logging, and security.

Develop validation and compliance checks to confirm provisioned resources meet approved configuration requirements.

Identify opportunities to replace manual infrastructure activities with reliable, repeatable automation.

Troubleshoot provisioning failures and improve automation based on recurring issues and operational feedback.

Hybrid Infrastructure & Tenant Support Develop and maintain automation across AWS classified cloud, other cloud environments, and on-premises infrastructure.

Partner with Hybrid Cloud / Kubernetes Engineers to translate approved infrastructure patterns into reusable automation modules.

Troubleshoot infrastructure state, dependency, configuration, and provisioning issues across environments.

Support repeatable tenant onboarding and lifecycle-management processes.

Continuously improve provisioning automation based on tenant onboarding requirements, platform changes, and operational lessons learned.

Engineering & Delivery Apply software-engineering practices to infrastructure automation, including source control, peer review, testing, versioning, and controlled releases.

Collaborate with platform and engineering teams to ensure automation aligns with established architecture and operational requirements.

Support infrastructure lifecycle activities as environments evolve and new capabilities are introduced.

Document automation patterns, dependencies, and operational procedures to support maintainability and knowledge transfer.
