Senior Platform Engineer

PreVeil Inc

12h•$125,000 - $150,000

About The Position

PreVeil is hiring a Platform Engineer to own and operate a large AWS estate spanning hundreds to thousands of accounts. The platform is built and maintained from shared infrastructure-as-code templates and automated deployment pipelines. The role focuses on maintaining fleet health, delivering platform features, and automating manual work so the account fleet can grow without a corresponding increase in team size. The work takes place in a regulated environment. Changes follow change control, and resulting records serve as audit evidence. The role calls for simple, robust architecture and strong end-to-end ownership: scoping work, breaking it into manageable pieces, and driving it to completion. The engineer will maintain AWS accounts and their baselines; design, implement, deploy, and operate platform features; extend infrastructure-as-code libraries and pipelines; run containerized workloads and supporting identity, networking, and virtual desktop services; use AI coding tools such as Claude Code to build automation; and monitor platform health and respond to incidents. Success includes knowing which accounts meet the known-good baseline, shipping and owning a production platform feature, reducing recurring manual work, producing audit-ready change evidence, and contributing reliably to incident response.

Requirements

3–5 years of professional experience in platform, DevOps, or infrastructure engineering.
Hands-on AWS experience at multi-account scale, including Organizations, IAM and cross-account access, networking, and container services.
Production infrastructure-as-code experience reused across many environments.
A track record of owning projects from concept through production.
Python, Go, or Bash skills sufficient to build tooling that other people depend on.
Proficiency in Linux and Windows Server environments, including directory services and group policy.
Experience building or substantially improving CI/CD pipelines.
U.S. citizenship or lawful permanent residency; visa sponsorship or transfer is not available.

Nice To Haves

Experience with restricted or government cloud regions.
Experience in regulated environments such as CMMC, NIST SP 800-171, FedRAMP, or SOC 2.
Experience with multi-account governance, including landing zones, guardrails, or automated account vending.
Experience with identity and single sign-on integration at scale.

Responsibilities

Maintain hundreds to thousands of AWS accounts, including account creation and placement, organization-wide guardrails and identity baselines, per-account configuration, patching, drift, and cost and log hygiene.
Keep accounts aligned with a known-good baseline and identify accounts that are not compliant with it.
Design, develop, deploy, and maintain platform features, including their code and infrastructure definitions, and own them in production.
Automate recurring infrastructure work, including setup, onboarding, and drift checks, to reduce manual effort and toil.
Extend infrastructure-as-code libraries and deployment pipelines that target individual accounts or classes of accounts.
Run containerized workloads and supporting identity, networking, and virtual desktop services.
Use AI coding tools such as Claude Code to build automation.
Monitor platform health and respond to incidents.
Move changes through change control and produce audit-ready evidence.
