Job Summary
Role name: DevOps Engineer (Terraform)
Work site: Columbus OH or Nashville TN
Role Overview
The DevOps Engineer is responsible for designing automating deploying and operating cloud infrastructure and application platforms using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) with Terraform as a core toolset. This role partners with development security and operations teams to improve deployment velocity reliability scalability and cost efficiency across environments.
The role is hands on and plays a key part in platform engineering cloud modernization and DevOps transformation initiatives.
Key Responsibilities
Infrastructure as Code (Terraform)
Design build and maintain cloud infrastructure using Terraform.
Create reusable versioned Terraform modules for shared infrastructure components.
Manage Terraform state workspaces backends and secrets securely.
Enforce infrastructure standards naming conventions and tagging strategies.
Support multi environment (dev/test/prod) and multi account/subscription deployments.
Cloud Infrastructure & Platforms
Provision and manage infrastructure in AWS Azure and/or GCP.
Deploy and maintain compute storage networking IAM and platform services.
Support Kubernetes and containerized workloads (EKS/AKS/GKE or equivalent).
Optimize infrastructure for performance scalability availability and cost.
CI/CD & Automation
Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines using tools such as GitHub Actions GitLab CI Jenkins or Azure DevOps.
Automate infrastructure provisioning application deployment and configuration management.
Integrate infrastructure pipelines with code repositories and approval workflows.
Promote GitOps and automation-first practices.
Monitoring Reliability & Operations
Implement monitoring logging and alerting using tools such as Prometheus Grafana CloudWatch Azure Monitor Datadog or similar.
Support incident response root cause analysis and reliability improvements.
Implement resiliency patterns (auto scaling failover backup DR).
Tune systems for stability and operational excellence.
Security & Compliance
Implement infrastructure security best practices:
o IAM least privilege access
o Secrets management
o Network segmentation
Integrate security scanning and policy checks into CI/CD pipelines.
Support compliance audit and governance requirements.
Collaboration & Enablement
Partner with development teams to enable self service infrastructure and pipelines.
Collaborate with security and architecture teams on platform design.
Document patterns runbooks and best practices.
Promote DevOps culture and continuous improvement across teams.
Required Qualifications
DevOps & Terraform Experience
4 8 years of experience in DevOps SRE or platform engineering.
3 years of hands-on Terraform experience in production environments.
Strong understanding of Infrastructure as Code concepts and lifecycle management.
Experience managing Terraform modules state and remote backends.
Cloud & Platform Skills
Strong experience with AWS Azure or GCP (at least one).
Knowledge of cloud networking IAM compute storage and load balancing.
Experience with containers and orchestration (Docker Kubernetes).
CI/CD & Tooling
Experience designing CI/CD pipelines.
Strong Git-based workflow experience.
Familiarity with configuration management tools (Ansible Chef or similar).
Scripting & Automation
Proficiency in scripting languages such as Python Bash or PowerShell.
Ability to automate repetitive tasks and operational workflows.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with Terraform Cloud or Terraform Enterprise.
