- IaC: Terraform
- Edge Hardware: InHandGo EC942 (or similar industrial routers)
- Tools: GitHub Enterprise
Responsibilities
- Triage and resolve open production issues, prioritizing notification/alerting reliability
- Inventory, import, and migrate all AWS resources into clean Terraform modules with remote state
- Design and document a standardized âcookie-cutterâ provisioning process for new edge routers (out-of-box â fully integrated)
- Produce comprehensive documentation: architecture diagrams, runbooks, provisioning guides, and operational procedures
- Conduct knowledge transfer sessions with internal team
Required Skills & Experience
- 5+ years AWS cloud engineering with production support
- Strong hands-on experience with AWS IoT Core and AWS IoT SiteWise
- Advanced Terraform skills (module design, resource import, state management, best practices)
- Experience provisioning industrial edge routers / cellular gateways with certificate-based onboarding
- Proficiency in AWS Lambda, SNS, IAM, CloudWatch, and Grafana
- Strong documentation and knowledge transfer skills
- Experience stabilizing and handing off inherited platforms
Preferred Skills
- Industrial / manufacturing IoT experience
- Cellular fleet management
- Terraform automation (pipelines, custom UIs, or modules)
Deliverables
- Fully stabilized platform with resolved notification issues
- Complete Terraform IaC codebase in GitHub Enterprise
- Repeatable, documented edge router provisioning workflow
- High-quality architecture docs, runbooks, and operational guides
- Successful internal team handoff
This is a high-impact, well-defined engagement ideal for a senior engineer who excels at cleanup, standardization, and handover work.
