Cloud and Infrastructure Automation Engineer

Cloud and Infrastructure Automation Engineer – Cape Town.

PBT Group has an exciting opportunity for a Cloud and Infrastructure Automation Engineer. This role will be responsible for managing and optimising server and storage infrastructure across both on-premise and AWS environments, with a strong focus on automation and reliability.

The ideal candidate is hands-on, proactive, and passionate about using automation to streamline infrastructure management — not just maintain it.

What You’ll Do :

• Manage and maintain server and storage infrastructure across on-prem and cloud (AWS) environments.
• Design, implement, and optimise infrastructure automation using Ansible and Terraform.
• Build and manage EC2 instances and related AWS resources.
• Enhance system efficiency, performance, and reliability through continuous improvement initiatives.
• Collaborate with development and DevOps teams to integrate infrastructure-as-code principles.
• Support CI / CD pipelines and maintain Git-based workflows for configuration management.
• Monitor system performance and proactively identify potential issues or improvements.
• Ensure compliance with security and operational standards.
• Provide technical guidance, documentation, and mentorship where required.
