## Description

Client is expanding its IT Platform team to support our mission of Autonomous Mobility. We're looking for a Cloud Engineer to help operate and support our AWS environment, working closely with the Cloud Engineering team and partnering with engineering teams across IT & Applications, Infrastructure, Product Software, Data Platform, and Manufacturing Operations. This role executes day-to-day provisioning, automation, and support work that keeps Client's AWS platform running securely and reliably.

In this role, you will:

 - Provision and manage AWS accounts and tenant structures, including IAM users/roles, cross-account access, and SSO group setup, following established playbooks

 - Write and maintain Terraform modules - both applying existing centralized modules and authoring new ones - for account setup, networking, IAM, and resource provisioning

 - Build and configure AWS networking resources (VPCs, subnets, VPC peering, routing) based on team designs

 - Support secrets management workflows (AWS Secrets Manager, Vault) for integrations with third-party platforms (e.g., Mulesoft)

 - Apply security and governance guardrails to provisioned resources (least-privilege IAM, encryption, AMI/container compliance checks)

 - Troubleshoot and resolve day-to-day AWS support tickets across compute, storage, and networking for cross-functional customers (engineering tools, HPC/simulation workloads, mission control systems, data platform, manufacturing systems)

 - Follow and help maintain runbooks/playbooks for recurring provisioning and operational tasks

 - Escalate architectural or ambiguous issues to senior team members while owning execution of well-defined requests
