About the role

Corporate Functions Senior AWS Cloud Engineer – VP III

Who We Are Looking For

We are seeking a highly experienced, hands-on technology leader to serve as the Corporate Functions Senior AWS Cloud Engineer – VP III, responsible for designing, engineering, deploying, and supporting complex AWS-based applications and AI-enabled platforms across Corporate Functions Technology.

This role is intended for a senior cloud engineer who can operate as a principal-level technical contributor with deep hands-on expertise across the AWS ecosystem. The successful candidate will be responsible for building secure, scalable, production-ready cloud solutions that support enterprise applications, intelligent assistants, AI-enabled workflows, automation, integrations, data services, and operationally resilient platforms.

The ideal candidate has extensive experience deploying end-to-end applications into AWS, including networking, compute, application hosting, load balancing, security, data services, secrets management, observability, CI/CD, and production support. This individual must also have hands-on experience enabling AI capabilities within AWS, including Amazon Bedrock, AI service integrations, model endpoint connectivity, AI orchestration patterns, and secure deployment of AI-enabled applications.

This is not a purely advisory or architecture-only role. The candidate must be able to actively engineer, configure, deploy, troubleshoot, automate, and support complex AWS environments while also guiding other engineers and development teams on cloud-native engineering best practices.

  • Implement reusable AWS engineering patterns that accelerate delivery.
  • Improve cloud security, operational resilience, and production maturity.
  • Support modernization of legacy platforms into cloud-native and AI-enabled solutions.
  • Partner across application, architecture, cybersecurity, infrastructure, and business teams to deliver measurable business value.

This is a highly visible senior engineering role that will directly influence how Corporate Functions builds, deploys, and operates modern AWS and AI-enabled solutions.
