Job Description

Overview:

• We are seeking a Lead DevOps Engineer to play a key role in a critical infrastructure upgrade initiative for one of our major clients. This technically complex AWS project involves upgrading legacy environments from one version to another version, aligning with Gen3 compliance standards, and ensuring secure, zero-downtime operations across multiple AWS accounts.

Project Scope:

You will lead and execute the following:

• In-Place AWS Account Upgrade:
• Modernize AWS infrastructure without disrupting live services, including reconfiguring VPCs, subnets, and security groups.
• Service Redeployment:
• Reprovision core AWS services (e.g., EC2, S3, Lambda) with updated configurations and IaC pipelines.
• Account & Ownership Realignment:
• Support migration of services between AWS accounts, working closely with multiple internal and external teams to ensure secure cross-account access, VPC peering, and data migration.

Key Responsibilities:

• Architect, implement, and validate infrastructure upgrades and service redeployments.
• Build and maintain Infrastructure as Code (IaC) solutions—Terraform preferred.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams including Security, Networking, and Cloud Engineering.
• Design and enforce best practices for cloud architecture, compliance (Gen3), and operational excellence.
• Troubleshoot and resolve complex cloud infrastructure issues.
• Ensure high availability and zero downtime during migrations.

Requirements:

• Expertise in AWS with direct experience across EC2, S3, Lambda, VPCs, security groups, and multi-account architectures.
• Hands-on experience with Infrastructure as Code—preferably Terraform—for provisioning, managing, and scaling infrastructure.
• Strong background in AWS networking, including VPC design, peering, route tables, and security architecture.
• Proven experience with cross-account management and data migration in enterprise environments.
• Demonstrated ability to handle live infrastructure upgrades with minimal disruption.
• Skilled at working across teams and navigating complex organizational structures.
• Experience in Gen3 compliance or similar regulatory cloud environments is a plus.

Nice to Have:

• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines (e.g., CodePipeline, Jenkins, GitLab CI).
• AWS Certifications (Solutions Architect, DevOps Engineer) are a plus.
• Experience in regulated industries (e.g., healthcare, finance, biotech).
