IT Systems Engineer: Cloud Infrastructure

Role description

Role Overview

The IT Engineering team at CoreWeave designs, builds, and operates the systems that enable employees and acquired organizations to work securely and efficiently at scale. The team partners closely with Security, Business Development, PeopleOps, and Corporate functions to deliver resilient, standardized, and automation-first IT solutions that support CoreWeave’s rapid growth. The IT Systems Engineer (Cloud Infrastructure) will build and operate the GCP, Azure, and AWS platforms that power internal IT and enterprise systems.

What You Will Do

The role covers cloud infrastructure, enterprise IT, and the operational reliability of the platforms those systems run on. You will work hands-on across our internal cloud foundations: landing zones, hybrid connectivity to data centers, and the infrastructure behind identity, collaboration, IT operations, and internal tooling. You will also mentor junior engineers and contribute to team-level technical decisions.

Why It Might Be a Fit

We believe in investing in our people and value candidates who bring unique backgrounds—even if you don’t check every box. If some of this describes you, we’d love to talk. You're deeply hands-on with cloud platforms—especially GCP—and enjoy building infrastructure as code with Terraform across multi-cloud environments. You have strong problem-solving skills with a proactive, analytical mindset and thrive troubleshooting production issues across infrastructure, networking, and IAM.

Requirements

• 7–10 years of experience as a Systems, Cloud, or Infrastructure Engineer supporting production environments.
• Strong hands-on GCP experience, including networking, IAM, compute, storage, security, and observability in multi-project environments.
• Working experience with at least one additional public cloud platform, preferably Azure or AWS, and the ability to apply equivalent infrastructure concepts across cloud providers.
• Strong hands-on experience using Terraform to provision and manage cloud infrastructure, including reusable modules, remote state, plan review, troubleshooting, and CI/CD-based deployment.
• Working knowledge of cloud networking, including VPCs/VNets, subnets, routing, DNS, firewalls, load balancers, peering, VPNs, and private connectivity.
• Experience managing IAM, service accounts, workload identities, secrets, and least-privilege access.
• Experience using Git-based development workflows, pull requests, code reviews, and automated validation.
• Experience operating Linux and Windows workloads in the cloud, including deployment, configuration, patching, hardening, and troubleshooting.
• Experience implementing monitoring, logging, alerting, dashboards, and operational runbooks for cloud infrastructure and workloads.
• Proficiency in at least one scripting language, such as Python, Bash, or PowerShell.
• Demonstrated ability to troubleshoot production issues across infrastructure, networking, IAM, operating systems, and application dependencies.
