Your work will power the automation, tooling, and platform capabilities that thousands of engineers rely on every day to deliver business-critical applications and services at scale. What You'll Do * Architect & Innovate - Design, develop, and optimize sophisticated cloud infrastructure automation on AWS, pushing the boundaries of what Infrastructure as Code can achieve across the enterprise. * Infuse AI into Infrastructure - Leverage AI and machine learning capabilities to build intelligent automation - from predictive scaling and anomaly detection to AI-powered troubleshooting, self-healing systems, and intelligent resource optimization that make the platform smarter with every deployment. * Empower Teams - Build self-service capabilities that enable internal engineering teams to move faster, deploy with confidence, and leverage Capital Group's cloud platform without friction - including AI-assisted developer tools and copilot-driven workflows. * Collaborate Cross-Functionally - Partner with software engineers, platform engineers, product managers, and product owners to deliver high-quality features across the full Internal Developer Platform product lifecycle. * Secure the Enterprise - Work hand-in-hand with security, risk, and compliance teams to embed protection into every layer of the platform - making security a feature, not a bottleneck. * Drive Engineering Excellence - Champion best practices, optimize performance, and establish scalable automation patterns - including AI-augmented operational practices - that elevate the entire organization's engineering maturity. * Developer Experience - Obsessively refactor IaC modules to ensure they are so intuitive, self-documenting, and foolproof that developers can provision complex infrastructure in seconds, not hours. Own the IaC developer experience end-to-end: build agentic workflows and tooling, author custom Terraform providers in Go, and expose Terraform Enterprise capabilities through thoughtfully designed interfaces that make every internal customer's interaction feel effortless ## Related Videos - [Our journey with Spring Boot in a microservice architecture](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/511-our-journey-with-spring-boot-in-a-microservice-architecture) - [Docker network without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1418-docker-network-without-docker) - [From Pipelines to Platforms: How DevOps Automation Becomes a Force Multiplier at Scale](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1946-from-pipelines-to-platforms-how-devops-automation-becomes-a-force-multiplier-at-scale) - [Docker exec without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1094-docker-exec-without-docker) - [Backstage in Practice: Offloading Developer Operational Work Through Platform Self-Service](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1922-backstage-in-practice-offloading-developer-operational-work-through-platform-self-service) - [Discover the open source trio you didn’t expect: .NET and PostgreSQL on Linux](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2042-discover-the-open-source-trio-you-didn-t-expect-net-and-postgresql-on-linux) ## Related Articles - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [How We Built a Worry-Free System That Runs for 10+ Years – And What We’d Do Again](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/751-how-we-built-a-worry-free-system-that-runs-for-10-years-and-what-we-d-do-again) - [Best US AI Conferences for CTOs in 2026: Build vs. Buy, Vendor Evaluation, and Peer Intelligence](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/736-best-us-ai-conferences-for-ctos-in-2026-build-vs-buy-vendor-evaluation-and-peer-intelligence) - [From Prototype to Production: Build AI Agents with This Free 4-Course Learning Path](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/655-from-prototype-to-production-build-ai-agents-with-this-free-4-course-learning-path) - [The Best X (Twitter) Accounts for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/294-the-best-x-twitter-accounts-for-developers) - [What Are The Top Skills Required For Azure Developers?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/77-what-are-the-top-skills-required-for-azure-developers)
