Reporting to the Leader, Cloud Operations, the Senior Specialist, Cloud Operations provides senior‑level AWS platform engineering expertise to operate, support, and continuously improve Interac’s AWS environments. The role is hands‑on across AWS platform services, Terraform and Infrastructure as Code, automation, observability, resiliency, incident troubleshooting, platform lifecycle management, and production operations, with a strong focus on engineering reliable and repeatable cloud operations for critical services. You will set the patterns other teams build on, own the controls that keep the platform safe by default, and hold the technical gate on what is accepted into production. You will operate across both build and run functions, partnering with Architecture, Security, Cloud Platforms, DevOps, Risk, and Product Teams — influencing outcomes in repositories and teams you do not own. This position requires deep expertise in multi‑account AWS platform engineering, Terraform,



policy‑as‑code, cloud security, automation engineering, observability, and resiliency engineering. What You Will Do:

Lead hands‑on AWS operational engineering across Interac’s cloud environments, with responsibility for Terraform‑based infrastructure automation, production reliability, observability, resiliency, incident troubleshooting, environment health, and continuous engineering improvements that enable reliable and scalable cloud operations. Use AWS and Terraform expertise to automate and maintain cloud infrastructure, detect and remediate configuration drift, strengthen operational controls, and continuously improve the reliability, resiliency, and supportability of production environments. Define and enforce the change‑control model for cloud infrastructure: pipeline‑mediated Terraform execution, peer‑reviewed pull requests, and no manual privileged change in production. Hold the technical gate on operational readiness — lead Operational Readiness Reviews and issue a documented, evidence‑based go / no‑go recommendation for production onboarding, including explicit and named acceptance of any residual risk. Own the operational health and ongoing engineering of Interac’s multi‑account AWS environments, using AWS and Terraform expertise to monitor, troubleshoot, automate and improve shared cloud services, networking, workload environments, resiliency and overall production stability.



Provide senior AWS engineering expertise across production operations, using deep knowledge of AWS, Terraform and cloud infrastructure to troubleshoot complex issues, support workload onboarding, improve operational readiness, and drive resolution of critical service incidents. Deliver security automation across the estate, including automated detection and remediation of non‑compliant resources, IAM policy validation and least‑privilege analysis, continuous compliance and configuration drift monitoring, and automated secret and encryption key lifecycle management. Deliver reliability automation across the estate, including self‑healing recovery of failed resources, automated service recovery and failover, health‑based workload replacement, auto‑scaling optimization, and automated backup validation and restoration testing. Deliver operational automation across the estate, including zero‑touch provisioning and deployment pipelines, automated patching and environment lifecycle management, and event‑driven workflows using AWS Lambda, Event Bridge, Step Functions, and Systems Manager. Define recovery objectives (RTO/RPO), resiliency patterns, and platform recovery strategies for critical payment workloads, and lead chaos engineering, disaster recovery, and business continuity testing — driving remediation of what those exercises expose. Implement and evolve observability across workloads, infrastructure, and platform services — monitoring, alerting, distributed tracing, logging, dashboards, and service health frameworks — and define and track service‑level indicators, service‑level objectives, and error budgets that drive prioritization with service owners and reduce operational toil.
