Job Details

Job Title: AWS Cloud Engineer

Location: Riverwoods, IL 60015 / Chicago, IL 606

Duration: 6+ Months Contract to Hire

 

The team comprises four AWS Cloud groups: IAM, Networking, Cloud management, and Infrastructure team.

The current team manages the foundation of AWS cloud infrastructure with 100 accounts

 

  • Roles include both maintaining existing and reimagining security structures, particularly IAM.
  • IAM knowledge, security controls, and configuration experience.
  • Terraform is used as infrastructure code, and Python is used as the core technology.
  • Looking for a candidate who can rewrite if they have to, and potentially run into cloud formation, the AWS native version of Terraform.
  • Python is being utilized more; they  don’t need Java.
  • Work will focus on RBAC controls and least privilege implementation.
  • Both positions require the same skill set, with a focus on building infrastructure with infrastructure as code.
  • Tools limited to Terraform and Cloud formation (no Terra Grunt).

 

Key standouts- experience managing multiple AWS accounts and Terraform proficiency.

Tools like Datalog /Splunk are not mandatory, but understanding log utilization is important.
