About The Role: Nearly every engineering team at Torc builds and runs workloads in AWS, and we are the team that makes that possible at scale. We own and operate a large, global AWS Organization and Control Tower, and we are accountable for the foundational infrastructure, security posture, and developer tooling that the rest of engineering depends on. What You'll Do: - Define and maintain an account vending machine with appropriate organizational control policies. - Design and operate shared networks, including Direct Connect, Site-to-Site VPN, and cloud-native network segmentation. - Own cloud security posture: SIEM integrations, identity and access management, and compliance tooling. - Design, deploy, and operate shared infrastructure including EKS and ECS clusters, and hosted application platforms. - Maintain and improve CI/CD infrastructure and shared build tooling used across the engineering organization. - Manage shared package and artifact distribution (JFrog Artifactory, AWS CodeArtifact). - Drive cloud cost visibility, attribution, and efficiency across the organization. - Collaborate with teams specializing in perception, planning, control, mapping, and vehicle testing to architect solutions that support their development workflows in AWS. - Contribute to technical decisions, design reviews, and the team's documentation and operational standards. Here is a list of some of the technologies we use to make all the above happen: - AWS (Organizations, Control Tower, Direct Connect, Site-to-Site VPN, WAF, FMS, Lambda, EventBridge, MACIE, SecurityHub, EKS, ECS, IAM, S3, EC2). - Terraform and Account Factory for Terraform (AFT). - Python. - GitHub Actions, Jenkins, JFrog Artifactory, AWS CodeArtifact. - On-Call Tooling (Datadog, AWS CloudWatch). What You'll Need To Succeed: - Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field with 6+ years of experience OR a Master's degree with 3+ years of experience. - Deep, hands-on experience with AWS, particularly in multi-account Organizations, IAM, networking, EKS/ECS, and security services. - Strong infrastructure as code discipline using Terraform, including module design and managing state at scale. - Demonstrated experience with cloud security fundamentals: identity and access management, least-privilege design, compliance tooling, and security posture management. - Familiarity with CI/CD systems and the infrastructure behind build, test, and artifact workflows. Bonus Points! - Strong organizational, time management, and communication skills working with a team orientation and collaborative style. - Experience with AWS Control Tower, Account Factory for Terraform (AFT), or similar account vending patterns. - Experience operating infrastructure for ML or robotics workloads. How We Work: - We work in a distributed team to ensure everyone is on the same playing field in terms of collaboration and information, regardless of where they work. - We collaborate frequently in many different forms, including daily stand-ups, planning meetings, and many ad hoc discussions/brainstorming/troubleshooting/pairing sessions over Zoom or Slack. - Our team is operationally responsible for the services we own, so we do have an on-call rotation in place where each member will take a turn serving as the front line for incidents for our services. Rotations last a week each, during business hours. - We value maintaining a healthy work/life balance and prefer sustainable development over heroic efforts.
