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.
