The Must-Haves- 5+ years in Cloud Infrastructure & Systems Engineering, with primary expertise in Terraform and IaC Architecture
- Deep, advanced proficiency with Terraform, including architecting scalable module libraries, state management, environment separation, and establishing code reusable across multi-project environments.
- Hands-on experience managing Google Cloud (GCP) environments, specifically provisioning and managing Shared VPCs, IAM hierarchies, and Cloud SQL using declarative IaC.
- Proven experience building, testing, and managing automated IaC pipelines in Azure Dev Ops (e.g., automated plan/apply workflows, drift detection, static analysis, and policy enforcement).
- Proficiency with Ansible for configuration management to complement Terraform's provisioning layer.
- Strong understanding of containerization and orchestration (GKE/Kubernetes vs. VMs) to design scalable, elastic cloud architecture.
- Strong Linux administration background with a solid command-line foundation for low-level infrastructure debugging.
- IaC Architecture & Standardization (Terraform):
Own and modernize the global Terraform ecosystem - moving away from manual infrastructure changes to dynamic, version-controlled module libraries that eliminate configuration drift. - Automated CI/CD for Infrastructure:
Build robust Azure Dev Ops pipelines tailored specifically for infrastructure releases, embedding automated testing, validation, and automated pull-request checks. - GCP Cloud Architecture:
Partner with engineering teams to design resilient GCP foundations (networking, IAM, database instances) purely defined through code. - Technical Mentorship & Governance:
Act as the senior voice for IaC standards - establishing code review practices, module documentation, and guiding developers on IaC best practices. - Compute & Container Strategy:
Help architect the next phase of workloads, evaluating when services should migrate to container orchestration versus managed cloud services or VMs. - Reliability & Resilience:
Collaborate with teams to define system health, observability, and infrastructure resiliency standards, participating in an on-call rotation to maintain operational availability.
- You lead the shift from manual work to automation by creating clear standards and driving consistent adoption across teams.
- You partner effectively with developers to unblock deployments, using strong troubleshooting judgment and a calm, systematic approach.
- You have the ability to understand application dependencies and troubleshoot build/deployment errors to unblock developers in mixed environments.
- You balance modernization decisions…
