Job description

As a Cloud Engineer specializing in Terraform and GitLab, you will play a pivotal role in automating the provisioning, scaling, and lifecycle management of cloud resources across an AWS environment. Your day-to-day responsibilities will center on designing and maintaining Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform, ensuring that cloud environments are both modular and reusable. You will architect and refine GitLab CI/CD pipelines to streamline deployment workflows, enabling engineering teams to deliver applications rapidly and reliably. By embedding security and compliance checks directly into these pipelines, you will help enforce practices and maintain robust governance over all infrastructure changes.

Requirements

In this position, you will leverage advanced features of GitLab, such as branch protection, code reviews, and environment variable management, to implement GitOps workflows that keep infrastructure state consistent and auditable. Your expertise in scripting languages like Python, Bash, or PowerShell will be essential for automating custom tasks and integrating with APIs. Additionally, you will utilize monitoring and resource tagging strategies within Terraform to optimize cloud performance and control costs. Experience with containerization technologies, including Docker and Kubernetes, will enable you to support microservices and cloud-native deployments, further enhancing the scalability and reliability of the environments you manage

Here is what you need:

  • Deep understanding of Terraform

  • Experience with Terraform state management (local, remote, Terraform Cloud)

  • Advanced proficiency with GitLab for code hosting and CI/CD pipeline management

  • Ability to create and manage custom .gitlab-ci.yml files, runners, caching, and environment variables

  • Hands-on experience with AWS services (IAM, VPC networking, compute)

  • Proficiency in at least one scripting language (Python, Bash, or PowerShell

  • Bonus if you have:

  • Experience with Docker and Kubernetes for microservices and cloud-native deployments

  • Experience integrating policy-as-code tools (e.g., OPA, Sentinel) into CI/CD workflows

  • Familiarity with GitOps workflows and branch protection strategies

  • Knowledge of automated monitoring and resource tagging for cost optimization

  • Experience embedding security (DevSecOps) into CI/CD pipelines

  • ship

  • Requires Security+ or equivalent (Must meet DOD IT II Requirements)

  • Deep understanding of Terraform

  • Experience with Terraform state management (local, remote, Terraform Cloud)

  • Advanced proficiency with GitLab for code hosting and CI/CD pipeline management

  • Ability to create and manage custom .gitlab-ci.yml files, runners, caching, and environment variables

  • Hands-on experience with AWS services (IAM, VPC networking, computer)

  • Proficiency in at least one scripting language (Python, Bash, or PowerShell
