Job Duties:

Job Responsibilities:

• Lead the design and evolution of global, Multi-AZ cloud architectures, focusing on resilience, scalability, and performance optimization.

• Infrastructure Governance, own and govern the "Golden Library" of Terraform modules, ensuring all infrastructure-as-code (IaC) follows strict organizational standards and naming conventions.

• AI-Driven Automation & Tooling: Design and build AI-Driven automation frameworks (Infrastructure as Intent) that streamline technical requirement analysis and accelerate the "Requirement-to-Code" lifecycle.

• Architect machine-readable schemas for complex cloud resources, including VPC CIDR allocation, DNS hierarchies, and global tagging taxonomies.

• Integrate CIS Cloud Foundations Benchmarks into the core delivery pipeline using Policy-as-Code tools to ensure 100% compliance at the point of creation.

• Implement automated validation loops that allow for self-healing infrastructure and proactive error correction within CI/CD pipelines.

Job Requirements:

• 10+ years of experience in AWS, Azure, GCP or China Brand Private Cloud, with expert-level proficiency in Terraform (HCL) and the ability to build sophisticated, reusable module libraries.

•  Deep knowledge of CIS Benchmarks and experience implementing Zero-Trust security models through automated Policy-as-Code (e.g., OPA, Sentinel, or Checkov).

•  High proficiency in designing complex JSON/YAML schemas to create machine-parsable environments for automated CIDR allocation, tagging, and resource lifecycle management.

•  Experience leveraging Large Language Models (LLMs) and AI coding assistants to accelerate development, with an understanding of how to provide technical context to AI agents for accurate code generation.

• Familiarity with building "closed-loop" automation where systems can interpret requirements, execute plans, and self-correct based on validation feedback.

•  Advanced understanding of global networking, including transit routing, software-defined networking, and IP Address Management (IPAM) in a multi-region environment.
