Job details

A U.S.-based provider of secure enterprise cloud technology for national security agencies, defense, and regulated industry customers, is hiring a Site Reliability Engineer on a contract basis. This role is fully remote within the U.S., with East Coast hours preferred. You will keep a large AWS environment healthy and automated using Terraform, Jenkins, Ansible, and Kubernetes.

This is a chance to work inside a security model most cloud teams never get to see. You will join a compact, senior SRE team supporting a cloud analytics platform, where infrastructure ownership is real and not split across a dozen layers. They want someone who loves automation, builds self-healing systems so problems fix themselves, and is excited to experiment with AI agents and AI-assisted tooling. Over time the team will extend support into a neighboring HCM environment, so there is natural room for your scope to grow.

Contract Duration: 6 – 12 Months

Required Skills & Experience

  • Hands-on SRE, DevOps, or cloud infrastructure experience at scale in AWS
  • Strong Terraform skills, since infrastructure as code is central to how this team works
  • Working experience with Jenkins and Ansible
  • Solid grasp of Kubernetes concepts (deep administration experience is not required)
  • Comfort with Linux systems and troubleshooting production issues
  • Willingness to participate in a shared on-call rotation
  • U.S. citizenship

Desired Skills & Experience

  • Experience building AI agents or agentic automation
  • Familiarity with Windows-based enterprise environments
  • Background supporting secure, regulated, or compliance-heavy environments

What You Will Be Doing
Tech Breakdown

  • 30% AWS Infrastructure (several hundred EC2 instances) & Terraform
  • 30% CI/CD & Configuration Management (Jenkins, Ansible)
  • 30% Kubernetes (managed container service)
  • 10% SAP HANA & Analytics Workload Reliability
