Per our Federal Government Contract, candidates must be U.S. Citizens with an ACTIVE TOP SECRET CLEARANCE. 

Responsibilities

  • Define IAM roles, VPC endpoints, Knowledge Bases, and Guardrails as reusable, version-controlled Terraform modules rather than through manual console configuration.
  • Version, manage, and distribute reusable infrastructure artifacts, including Terraform modules, container images, and Lambda packages, through Artifactory.
  • Build and deploy connector infrastructure, including MCP servers and Lambda-based integrations, connecting Amazon Bedrock to internal APIs, databases, and ticketing systems.
  • Host, version, and maintain connector services as production infrastructure alongside other application services.
  • Deploy custom and fine-tuned models using Amazon Bedrock Custom Model Import and Provisioned Throughput.
  • Evaluate cost and commitment tradeoffs associated with Provisioned Throughput and custom model deployments.
  • Build cost and usage observability capabilities to track spend by model and developer and implement budget alerts to prevent uncontrolled cost growth.
  • Support secure cloud modernization efforts for applications supporting background investigation operations.
  • Develop infrastructure and deployment processes that promote consistency and reproducibility across development, test, and production environments.

Qualifications

  • Active Secret clearance and Security+ certification.
  • U.S. Citizenship required.
  • Hands-on experience with Terraform and AWS Bedrock resources, including IAM, Knowledge Bases, Guardrails, VPC endpoints, and Provisioned Throughput, with experience developing reusable, version-controlled modules.
  • Experience managing and distributing versioned infrastructure artifacts through Artifactory to support reproducible deployments across development, test, and production environments.
  • Hands-on experience deploying custom and fine-tuned models using Amazon Bedrock Custom Model Import, including experience with open-source model weights and model size/format requirements.
  • Experience with Amazon Bedrock Provisioned Throughput and associated commitment and cost planning.
  • Experience building and operating connector and integration services using technologies such as AWS Lambda, ECS, and containers to expose internal data sources to Amazon Bedrock agents.
  • Experience developing and maintaining cloud infrastructure and services through code, version control, and repeatable deployment processes.

Nice-to-Have Qualifications

  • Experience with Reinforcement Fine-Tuning (RFT) workflows on Amazon Bedrock.
  • Experience with Application Inference Profiles for per-team cost attribution.
  • Experience working within multi-account AWS Organizations environments supporting development, test, and production separation.
