• Configure and manage AWS Cognito user pools and approved authentication settings with the solution architect and security stakeholders.

• Implement and maintain Terraform infrastructure as code, CI/CD pipelines, release promotion and version-controlled configuration.

• Set up monitoring, logging and operational visibility; maintain runbooks, rollback and recovery procedures.

• Lead deployment rehearsals, cutover, production onboarding, issue triage, hypercare and operational handoff.

• Use GitHub Copilot with relevant architecture, Terraform, pipeline and security context to draft or review infrastructure code and scripts; test and validate every generated change.

• Protect credentials, secrets and customer data; follow approved security, privacy, review and change-control processes.

• Hands-on AWS infrastructure engineering and ownership of cloud environments and production deployments.

• AWS Cognito setup and configuration for customer authentication.

• Terraform and infrastructure-as-code delivery.

• CI/CD pipelines, deployment automation, release management and rollback planning.

• Cloud networking, IAM/access controls, secrets handling, monitoring and logging.

• Practical GitHub Copilot experience using effective prompts and repository/architecture context for IaC, scripting or pipeline work, with independent security and correctness review.

• Ability to lead cross-team infrastructure decisions and production incident/deployment coordination.

• Experience supporting existing AWS ECS workloads or legacy integration coexistence where required.
