AWS Cloud Platform Engineer, Enterprise Development

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.
