Job description

Cloud Software Engineer (CCoE – Onsite)

Role Overview

The Cloud Software Engineer will work closely with customer IT and development teams to design, build, test, and deploy cloud-native applications using leading hyperscaler platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP).

This role plays a key part in accelerating cloud adoption by implementing Infrastructure as Code (IaC), CI/CD automation, and cloud engineering best practices. As part of the Cloud Center of Excellence (CCoE), you will act as a trusted technical partner, embedding cloud expertise into customer delivery teams and supporting their cloud transformation journey.

Key Responsibilities

• Collaborate with IT and development teams to architect, develop, and deploy scalable cloud-native applications using hyperscaler services and frameworks

• Design, implement, and maintain Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform, ensuring reusable, version-controlled, and idempotent deployments

• Build, maintain, and optimize CI/CD pipelines using tools such as Git, Jenkins, Azure DevOps, GitLab CI, or cloud-native services

• Apply cloud engineering best practices including microservices architecture, immutable infrastructure, and serverless patterns

• Provision, configure, and manage cloud environments across single or multi-cloud platforms

• Monitor, troubleshoot, and optimize cloud infrastructure and applications using observability tools (e.g., CloudWatch, Prometheus, Grafana, ELK)

• Implement cloud security best practices including IAM, RBAC, network segmentation, and encryption

• Produce and maintain technical documentation such as architecture diagrams, runbooks, and deployment guides

• Participate actively in Agile ceremonies (sprint planning, reviews, retrospectives) to support continuous improvement and delivery excellence

Required Experience

• Hands‑on experience with one or more hyperscaler platforms: AWS, Azure, or GCP

• Strong experience using Terraform (or equivalent IaC tools) for cloud infrastructure automation

• Proven experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines for cloud applications

• Experience with containerization (Docker) and container orchestration platforms (Kubernetes, EKS, AKS, GKE) is highly desirable

• Solid understanding of cloud networking concepts (VPC/VNet, subnets, security groups, load balancers, DNS)

• Working knowledge of cloud security principles including IAM, encryption, and compliance requirements

• Experience with scripting or programming languages such as Python, Java, or Node.js

• Experience working in Agile and DevOps environments on cloud migration or modernization initiatives

• Strong troubleshooting skills with the ability to analyze logs, metrics, and performance data

Technical Skills

• Infrastructure as Code: Terraform (preferred), CloudFormation, ARM, or equivalent

• CI/CD: Jenkins, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, or cloud-native tooling

• Containers & Orchestration: Docker, Kubernetes

• Cloud Networking & Security: IAM, RBAC, VPC/VNet design, encryption

• Monitoring & Observability: Prometheus, Grafana, ELK Stack, CloudWatch, or equivalents

• OS & Automation: Linux/Unix, shell scripting, CLI tools

• Software Engineering: clean, maintainable, and testable code following best practices

Education & Certifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent practical experience

Preferred certifications:

• AWS Certified Developer – Associate

• Microsoft Certified: Azure Developer Associate

• Google Associate Cloud Engineer

• HashiCorp Terraform Associate

• (Optional but valuable)

  • Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA)

  • DevOps Foundation or equivalent
