Job Description
Order 329383 is a primary recruitment order for two agency positions: 329383 and 329384. Software Engineer: Cloud Engineering Connected Vehicle Platform (TMC) *** Motor Company About the Team Our mission is to empower teams to reliably run production systems using modern cloud-native tools. We focus on building scalable automated and resilient solutions that benefit the entire engineering organization - managing the infrastructure that connects and serves 26M *** vehicles globally. We are currently executing a multi-phase platform transformation: decoupling services to reduce blast radius building a shard-based architecture to scale to 2028 demand and laying the groundwork for GCP migration. This is not maintenance work - it is foundational platform engineering that shapes how ***s connected vehicle platform operates for the next five years. Our primary customers are internal engineering teams but the solutions we build have direct impact on vehicle reliability operational cost and ***s ability to launch new vehicle programs on time. Responsibilities As a Software Engineer on the Cloud Engineering team you will be responsible for designing developing and maintaining the cloud platform and automation tooling that powers our platform transformation. Your contributions will directly impact the reliability scalability and cost-efficiency of a system serving millions of vehicles.
Skills Required:
Key responsibilities include: Platform Development & Automation Design and build cloud-native solutions that enable automated repeatable shard provisioning - including cluster bootstrapping network configuration service mesh setup and health validation. Build the control plane tooling that allows a new shard to be provisioned and traffic-ready in under 24 hours with zero manual steps. Infrastructure as Code Own and extend production Terraform modules for multi-cloud environments (AWS and GCP). Maintain GitOps-driven infrastructure workflows using Atlantis or similar tooling. Ensure infrastructure changes are reviewed tested and auditable before reaching production. Kubernetes & Service Mesh Provision manage and automate Kubernetes cluster lifecycle (EKS and GKE). Write Helm charts for multi-shard deployments parameterized by shard ID region and environment. Configure and operate Istio service mesh including traffic management mTLS enforcement and observability. GCP Platform Engineering Build and operate GCP-native platform components: GKE workload deployment Pub/Sub integration Cloud Storage Secret Manager workload identity federation and VPC-SC perimeter controls. Support the phased migration from AWS to GCP as the architecture evolves. API Gateway & Ingress Configure and operate API gateway infrastructure (Tyk Apigee or NGINX) including routing policies mTLS enforcement rate limiting*** and SLI/SLO metric replication. Drive zero-downtime ingress migrations with automated runbook validation. CI/CD Automation Develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines using ArgoCD Tekton or Concourse. Automate deployment gates - cluster health checks fleet distribution validation rollback triggers - so that shard migrations execute reliably without human intervention at each step. See Preferred Required Skills section - Contd....
Skills Preferred:
****PRIMARY SKILLS REQUIRED (Contd)**** Security & Compliance Implement IAM best practices across AWS and GCP: environment-specific role isolation workload identity least-privilege access and automated access reviews. Implement and maintain monitoring for quota thresholds certificate expiry and security policy drift. Observability & Monitoring Build and maintain monitoring alerting and dashboarding solutions (Prometheus Grafana Datadog Cloud Operations) that give engineering teams real-time visibility into shard health fleet distribution balance and platform SLOs. Automation & Tooling Write automation scripts and internal tools (Python Go Bash ) that improve platform workflows - migration orchestration CLIs fleet distribution validators runbook automation and capacity planning tools. Operational Support Participate in on-call rotations troubleshoot incidents and apply SRE principles to improve system resilience. Drive root cause elimination not just mitigation.
Experience Required:
Skills & Experience Must Have: Experience provisioning and managing Kubernetes clusters (EKS or GKE) in production 3 years managing cloud infrastructure on AWS and/or GCP Strong Terraform skills - writing modular production-grade IaC with GitOps workflows Experience with Helm for packaging and deploying multi-environment Kubernetes workloads Strong debugging and problem-solving skills for cloud infrastructure and distributed systems Experience with monitoring and observability tools (Prometheus Grafana Datadog or equivalent)
Experience Preferred:
Highly Desired: GCP experience: GKE Pub/Sub Cloud Storage workload identity VPC-SC Cloud Operations API gateway experience: Tyk Apigee or NGINX - routing policy management mTLS SLI replication Service mesh experience: Istio traffic management mTLS and observability gRPC service design and protobuf schema management Experience with CI/CD platforms: ArgoCD Tekton Concourse or similar GitOps tooling Programming proficiency in Python Go Java (Spring Boot) or Security: IAM role isolation mTLS OAuth2/OIDC securing multi-cloud environments at scale Experience with Atlantis Terragrunt or similar collaborative Terraform workflows
Education Required:
Minimum Qualifications: Bachelors or Masters degree in Computer Science Engineering or related field 5 years of professional software or cloud engineering experience Demonstrated experience shipping and operating production infrastructure at scale
Education Preferred:
***ORDER IS BILLING TO A PD DEPARTMENT THAT REQUIRES A SECOND APRPOVAL TO EXTEND OFFER**
Additional Information:
Hybrid (4 days per week in the office) Why This Role You will be building the platform that enables ***s connected vehicle architecture to scale beyond its current limits - eliminating single-cluster blast radius risk enabling sharded multi-cloud deployment and making GCP migration a reality. The work is technically hard the scale is real and the impact is direct. Job Description Part B - Primary Skills Required Experience Level
5 years of relevant industry experience in Cloud Infrastructure Platform Engineering DevOps or Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) roles.
1. Kubernetes Administration Hands-on experience deploying managing troubleshooting and optimizing production Kubernetes clusters. Candidates should be comfortable with cluster operations upgrades networking security monitoring and workload management.
2. Infrastructure Management Strong background in cloud infrastructure engineering including provisioning configuration management platform operations reliability scalability and operational excellence.
Additional Skills Preferred
1. Terraform Experience designing and managing Infrastructure as Code (IaC) solutions including reusable modules and automated infrastructure deployment.
2. Scripting Strong automation skills using Python Bash PowerShell or similar scripting languages.
3. Helm Experience creating maintaining and deploying Helm charts for Kubernetes-based applications. 4. Cloud Platforms (AWS/Azure) Hands-on experience with cloud services networking security observability and infrastructure management.
5. Application Development Technologies Knowledge of Java Spring Boot and Python is desirable. These skills are secondary to the cloud engineering and infrastructure competencies listed above.
