Visa: Green Card or US Citizen
Pay: $75/Hr. - $80/Hr. W-2
Key responsibilities:
- Own and improve CI/CD and infrastructure patterns for AWS-based GenAI agent platforms using CDK, GitHub/Bitbucket Pipelines, OIDC, and CloudFormation.
- Evolve secure multi-repo GenAI deployment architecture where shared infrastructure (Bedrock access, agent runtimes, gateways, graph databases, Redis caches) is provisioned centrally and consumed through SSM parameter contracts.
- Provision and operate graph databases (Neo4j, Amazon Neptune, or equivalent) supporting knowledge graphs and agent reasoning context — covering schema management, backup/restore, scaling, query tuning, and secure access.
- Provision and operate Redis for agent session state, semantic caching, rate limiting, pub/sub, and short-term memory — covering cluster sizing, replication, failover, persistence, and TLS/auth hardening.
- Implement secure deployment role chains: OIDC deploy roles, CDK bootstrap deploy roles, and scoped CloudFormation execution roles.
- Design and troubleshoot least-privilege IAM policies across CDK, CloudFormation, Lambda, Bedrock, AgentCore runtime, agent gateway, and graph/Redis access.
- Support container/image build and deployment workflows to shared ECR repositories across agent repos.
- Improve environment bootstrapping, deployment repeatability, drift detection, rollback, and operational validation — including stateful data layers.
- Partner with InfoSec to harden deployment flows and document secure GenAI platform standards, including data-at-rest and in-transit controls for graph and Redis stores.
- Troubleshoot complex deployment issues across IAM, CloudFormation, OIDC, VPC connectivity, ECR, API Gateway, Bedrock AgentCore, graph/Redis connectivity, and observability.

- Experience securing AI/LLM platforms, agent orchestration layers, or API-driven enterprise GenAI platforms.
- Experience integrating graph databases and Redis as supporting data layers for GenAI agents (knowledge graphs, semantic caching, session memory).
- Experience with enterprise guardrails, audit logging, and security review processes for AI workloads.
- Familiarity with SSM contract-based repo integration patterns.
- Experience with private subnet/VPC endpoint architectures for Lambda, Bedrock, graph/Redis endpoints, or containerized GenAI runtimes.
