Senior AWS Cloud Platform Engineer, Enterprise Development (Remote)

Full time, United States

As a member of the Enterprise Development organization, you will work on a range of complex and high-impact cloud platform challenges and be responsible for designing, building, and evolving scalable AWS-based platform capabilities that enable product engineering teams.

You will contribute to the development of an internal cloud platform that simplifies and standardizes how applications are built, deployed, and operated across the enterprise. Working within a cross-functional team including Engineering, Architecture, Security, Operations, and Product - you will help drive platform adoption and improve developer experience across the organization.

You will collaborate closely with platform engineers, application teams, and enterprise stakeholders to deliver foundational capabilities in a complex, data-intensive, and distributed cloud environment. In this role, you will contribute not only to execution but also to shaping platform standards, improving automation, and enabling long-term scalability, reliability, and operational excellence across AWS environments.

We are looking for individuals who enjoy solving complex infrastructure and platform challenges, are comfortable working hands-on with cloud-native technologies, and are passionate about building reusable, self-service capabilities. You should be eager to dive deep into technical details, improve system internals, and enable teams to deliver faster with greater consistency and quality.

As a Senior AWS Cloud Platform Engineer, Enterprise Development, you will

Own the platform engineering strategy, roadmap, and delivery outcomes, enabling scalable, self-service infrastructure and developer productivity across the organization

Drive adoption of platform capabilities including CI/CD templates, reusable modules, golden paths, and standardized environments across engineering teams

Establish Infrastructure as Code (IaC) frameworks (Terraform, CDK, CloudFormation) with reusable, versioned modules to ensure consistency, compliance, and scalability

Architect and manage multi-account AWS environments with strong governance, security guardrails, and automated onboarding for application teams

Enable self-service provisioning of infrastructure, pipelines, and services through developer portals and APIs (e.g., Backstage or similar platforms)

Implement centralized observability (logs, metrics, traces) with integrated tooling (CloudWatch, Datadog, Open Telemetry) to support operational excellence

Define and enforce platform standards for security, compliance, cost optimization, and reliability

Partner with application engineering teams to onboard them onto the platform, ensuring seamless adoption and high developer experience

Act as the primary SME for cloud-native patterns including microservices, event-driven architectures, serverless, and container platforms (EKS/ECS)

Lead platform reliability initiatives including SLOs, SLIs, error budgets, and resilience engineering practices

Proactively manage system-wide risks, platform dependencies, and trade-offs between flexibility and standardization

Collaborate with architects to define scalable data and integration patterns aligned with enterprise architecture

Mentor platform engineers and DevOps teams, building strong expertise in automation, cloud architecture, and platform design

Establish KPIs for platform adoption, developer productivity, deployment efficiency, and operational maturity

Serve as the strategic bridge between infrastructure, security, and application teams to drive platform-first engineering culture
