LPL's Delivery team is the Cloud Center of Excellence's internal professional-services crew — the engineers who parachute in with white-glove service to get applications to the cloud fast. As Engineer 2, Cloud Delivery Engineer, you'll staff Experience-Based Acceleration (EBA / SBA) and other acceleration events, partner with lean application teams, and build Terraform that operationalizes AWS services and third-party platforms like Confluent Kafka and Kong. If you like shipping real workloads to the cloud with a globally distributed team across the US and India, this is your seat.
As the Engineer 2, Cloud Delivery Engineer, you are a hands-on mid-level cloud engineer in the Delivery team within LPL's Cloud Center of Excellence (CCOE). Delivery is CCOE's internal professional-services team: it staffs Experience-Based Acceleration (EBA / SBA) and other acceleration events with white-glove delivery support, partners with less-funded application teams to get their workloads onto the AWS cloud, and engineers Infrastructure-as-Code solutions that operationalize AWS services and third-party platforms (for example, Confluent Kafka and Kong). You also help migrate application workloads into the multi-account landing zone. LPL is an AWS-first CCOE: a multi-account landing zone with 100+ private reusable Terraform modules that enable 60+ AWS services, all delivered through Terraform Cloud and GitHub Actions. You partner with the Platforms and Containers teams, the Support team, and the Foundations pods (Security & Governance, FinOps, Functional Design Engineering & Strategy, Network Engineering, Monitoring), and you spend the majority of your time hands-on in Terraform and delivery work across LPL's US offices and India Global Capability Center (GCC) — leaving the teams you help able to run what you built together.
-
Deliver white-glove cloud delivery support during Experience-Based Acceleration (EBA / SBA) and other acceleration events — embedding with application teams to land workloads on AWS quickly and correctly
-
Partner with less-funded / lean application teams to deliver their applications to the cloud: reference-architecture guidance, hands-on Terraform, and pairing that leaves the team able to run what you built together
-
Engineer Infrastructure-as-Code solutions that operationalize AWS services — turning a raw AWS capability into a paved, reusable path consumable through the private Terraform module library
-
Operationalize third-party systems on AWS (for example, Confluent Kafka and Kong) as Terraform-managed, supportable building blocks with clear runbooks and hand-off to the Support and Containers teams
-
Support migrations of application workloads into the multi-account landing zone — coordinating cutover, validation, and hand-off
-
Embed agentic AI capabilities into the team's engineering practice (e.g., Cursor, Claude Code, Bedrock, MCP servers, agentic IaC and review workflows) and into the platform's self-service experience for internal customers
-
Use agentic AI capabilities to accelerate delivery: AI-assisted Terraform authoring and refactoring, reference-pattern scaffolding, migration discovery and documentation, and MCP-driven self-service so the teams you help can keep moving after you rotate off
-
Operate as a hands-on mid-level cloud engineer in the pod: spend the majority of your time in Terraform code, AWS console / CLI, design documents, peer code review, and incident response — execution and growth are the primary leverage points
-
Personally participate in 24x7 on-call rotations as a primary responder for production incidents within the pod's scope; grow into senior responder framing over time with support from AVPs and VPs
-
Consume the private Terraform module library and reference patterns to ship application-aligned infrastructure; raise small, well-scoped pull requests against shared modules and the Account Factory for Terraform (AFT) foundational base layer to improve what you use
-
Partner with peer engineers, AVPs, and VPs across the Cloud Center of Excellence — the five CCOE teams (Foundations, Platforms, Containers, Support, Delivery) and the five Foundations pods (Security & Governance, FinOps, Functional Design Engineering & Strategy, Network Engineering, Monitoring) — to deliver pod outcomes; ask for help early and pass what you learn on to peers
-
Apply the AWS Well-Architected Framework in the work you touch and drive continuous improvement against operational, security, reliability, performance, cost, and sustainability outcomes
-
Participate fully in Agile / Scrum ceremonies (sprint planning, standups, backlog grooming, retrospectives) with the pod's embedded Scrum Master and partner with the enterprise EPMO / RTE on delivery commitments and dependencies
-
Pursue and maintain the Engineer 2 certification path per the CCOE certification matrix — AWS Certified Developer – Associate, HashiCorp Certified: Terraform Associate (004), Kubernetes and Cloud Native Associate (KCNA), and Certified Kubernetes Application Developer (CKAD) — progressing toward Senior Engineer over time
We’re looking for strong collaborators who deliver exceptional client experiences and thrive in fast-paced, team-oriented environments. Our ideal candidates pursue greatness, act with integrity, and are driven to help our clients succeed. We value those who embrace creativity, continuous improvement, and contribute to a culture where we win together and create and share joy in our work.
-
3+ years of progressive technical experience in cloud infrastructure, platform engineering, or software engineering; Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related discipline (or equivalent work experience)
-
1+ years of hands-on production AWS in a multi-account environment with hands-on production Terraform delivered through Terraform Cloud and GitHub Actions; comfort consuming a private Terraform module library and raising well-scoped pull requests against shared modules
-
Demonstrated track record of owning meaningful, well-scoped engineering work end-to-end under senior guidance — design, implementation, code review participation, and follow-through
-
Experience participating in 24x7 production on-call rotations as a primary responder in a fast-paced, security-conscious environment (financial services preferred)
-
Hands-on experience delivering application workloads to AWS in a consulting, professional-services, or platform-delivery capacity — including Infrastructure-as-Code delivery and, ideally, operationalizing a managed AWS service or a third-party system (e.g., Kafka, Kong, or similar) as reusable IaC
-
Strong growth mindset — actively pursues the Engineer 2 certifications in the CCOE certification matrix and uses each incident, code review, and design discussion as a learning loop
-
Bias toward shipping high-quality, well-tested, code-reviewed work; leaves the codebase a little better than they found it
-
Asks for help early when stuck and writes down what they learn for the next engineer
-
Calm primary responder during incidents; pages an AVP or VP early rather than struggling alone
-
Continuous learner in cloud-native, IaC, and applied AI
-
Builds high-trust relationships with peer engineers across the US and India / GCC
-
Excellent written and verbal communication; can articulate what they changed and why in a clear pull request description
-
On the Engineer 2 certification path per the CCOE certification matrix: AWS Certified Developer – Associate
-
On the Engineer 2 certification path per the CCOE certification matrix: HashiCorp Certified: Terraform Associate (004)
-
On the Engineer 2 certification path per the CCOE certification matrix: Kubernetes and Cloud Native Associate (KCNA)
-
On the Engineer 2 certification path per the CCOE certification matrix: Certified Kubernetes Application Developer (CKAD)
-
Experience using agentic AI / GenAI tooling (Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, Bedrock, MCP) in day-to-day engineering work
-
Strong scripting proficiency in Python, Bash, or PowerShell
-
Experience working with globally distributed teams across the US and India / GCC
-
AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CCP) as a stepping stone toward Developer – Associate
