Jobs at Elastic Path (Now Hiring) — 2 open

CLOUD ENGINEER - LEVEL I

Fixed Term - 18 Months

Role Details

This is an 18-month fixed-term position covering a parental leave on our Cloud Engineering team, starting October 2026.

As a junior Cloud Engineer at Elastic Path, you'll join a small team running a multi-tenant commerce platform across four AWS regions in North America and Europe, and you'll be working on the real thing from early on, not a sandbox. You will contribute directly to building, testing, and enhancing our Commerce Cloud platform. You will work closely with our senior Cloud Engineers and alongside other teams, including Cloud Operations and Performance, to develop, deploy, and maintain cloud infrastructure on AWS. As you build infrastructure as code with your teammates, you will contribute to our commitment to reliable, repeatable, and rapid production releases.

Over 18 months you can expect to:

• Write and ship production Terraform configs, working within a modular IaC codebase rather than a monolith
  
• Build and operate workloads on EKS, including multi-architecture node groups
  
• Work alongside a Senior Performance Engineer, a Staff Cloud Engineer, and a Release Engineer who will review your merge requests and pair with you on the harder problems
  
• Get exposure to how a SOC 2-compliant platform is actually operated day to day i.e. access control, change management, and incident response as practiced, not as described in a policy doc

You'll leave with production AWS and Kubernetes experience, real infrastructure-as-code fluency, and a working understanding of what it takes to keep an enterprise platform up.

Location
This is a remote role based in Canada - candidates are required to have valid work authorization, be located in Canada and have work authorization to be considered. Elastic Path is a Remote-First employer, so you’ll always have the tools to work from wherever you are based.

Key Responsibilities:

• Build and maintain scalable, reliable cloud infrastructure supporting Elastic Path Commerce Cloud
• Automate routine deployment, monitoring, and troubleshooting tasks to improve operational efficiency and reliability
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including Cloud Operations and Development, to identify and implement improvements to the platform
• Contribute to the development and maintenance of CI/CD pipelines, supporting smooth and timely releases
• Assist in the implementation of infrastructure-as-code practices using Terraform
• Monitor cloud resources, performance, and security, and raise optimizations you spot along the way

What experience do you need to Be Remarkable in this position?

• 0–3 years of experience in cloud engineering, DevOps, SRE, or a similar role. Co-op and internship time at real companies counts.
• Solid Linux fundamentals, comfort at the command line, and Docker experience
• Working knowledge of git and at least one scripting language (Python or Bash)
• Exposure to core AWS services (EC2, VPC, IAM, S3) through work, co-op, coursework, or personal projects
• Methodical debugging instincts — you form a hypothesis, test it, and know when to stop guessing and ask for help
• Clear written communication. Most of our work happens in Slack threads, merge requests, and runbooks.
• A degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience

Nice to have — but we'll teach you these

• Terraform or another infrastructure-as-code tool
• Kubernetes or EKS
• CI/CD pipelines, particularly GitLab
• Familiarity with agile development practices and the software development lifecycle
