Role Description

Amtech is executing an all-in AWS strategy: migrating our flagship Encore ERP to a multi-account, account-per-customer AWS architecture, operating LabelTraxx as a multi-tenant SaaS platform, and retiring legacy private-cloud infrastructure. Platform Engineering owns the landing zone, infrastructure as code, and the golden-path tooling that product teams build on.

As a Senior Platform Engineer on the Cloud track, you will design and build core AWS infrastructure, own significant components of the Encore-on-AWS environment build system, and set the technical standard for the India cloud engineering pod.

This is a senior hands-on role: you will ship infrastructure, review others' work, and mentor engineers while coordinating closely with U.S.-based architects and leadership.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Architecture & Design

• Design and implement scalable, secure AWS infrastructure across Amtech's multi-account organizations, including our account-per-customer Encore hosting model.

• Author and maintain the reusable Terraform modules and golden-path IaC patterns that other engineers build on.

• Design DNS, certificate, and network architecture for customer-facing environments (Route 53 delegation, ACM, VPC design).

• Contribute to landing zone evolution, account vending, and multi-environment promotion patterns.

Automation & Operations

• Build and harden CI/CD pipelines in GitHub Actions for infrastructure and application delivery.

• Operate and optimize containerized and serverless workloads (ECS Fargate, EKS, Lambda) and RDS PostgreSQL at production scale.

• Instrument the platform with our OpenTelemetry-based observability stack (OpenObserve, CloudWatch) and integrate with PagerDuty.

• Own incident response and root cause analysis for cloud infrastructure in your domain, meeting SLA and SLO targets.

• Drive FinOps outcomes: tagging enforcement, right-sizing, Savings Plans coverage, and cost anomaly follow-up.

Security & Compliance

• Implement cloud security best practices: IAM boundary design, secrets management, network segmentation, and encryption standards.

• Partner with Information Security to enforce SOC 2 and ISO 27001 controls and produce audit evidence through automation.

• Integrate vulnerability scanning, patching, and policy checks into pipelines (shift-left security).

• Uphold Amtech's data governance rules for customer data in all cloud environments.

AI Competency

• Design validation gates for AI-assisted infrastructure changes: what AI may touch, required review depth by blast radius, and rollback and audit trails.

• Establish reusable AI patterns (prompt and context libraries, standard workflows) adopted across the pod, and mentor engineers in safe, high-leverage usage.

• Measure AI productivity impact against baselines; enforce data classification policy in all AI-assisted work.

Collaboration & Leadership

• Partner with product development teams to enable efficient, self-service deployment models.

• Mentor earlier-career platform engineers in IaC, observability, and secure delivery practices.

• Coordinate daily with U.S. peers and leadership to maintain global consistency across time zones.

• Contribute to architectural reviews, migration planning, and platform standards.

QUALIFICATIONS

• 7+ years of hands-on experience in cloud, platform, or DevOps engineering, with substantial AWS depth.

• Expert working knowledge of AWS services (EC2, ECS/EKS, S3,…
