This role centers on Terraform-based infrastructure-as-code, AWS data access and governance patterns, especially Lake Formation, and the pipelines that connect AWS-hosted data to Palantir and other analytics/ontology platforms. Key Responsibilities Design, build, and maintain infrastructure-as-code using Terraform across AWS environments supporting data platforms. Configure and manage AWS Lake Formation, including tag-based access control (LF-TBAC), to govern data access at scale. Build and maintain DevOps pipelines that integrate AWS data sources with third-party analytics/ontology platforms (Palantir Foundry and similar). Support data pipeline automation, CI/CD, and infrastructure reliability for production data workloads. Apply data governance and security best practices (RBAC, tagging, markings) across the AWS-to-downstream-platform integration. Collaborate with data engineers, analysts, and platform owners to ensure secure, well-governed data access. Document infrastructure patterns and mentor team members on Terraform and AWS best practices. Required Qualifications 5–6 years of professional data engineering / DevOps experience. Strong, hands-on Terraform experience (infrastructure-as-code, modules, state management). Deep AWS experience, with strong understanding of AWS Lake Formation, including tag-based access control (LF-TBAC), and how DevOps pipelines integrate AWS data through Lake Formation with third-party platforms. Strong Python and SQL; comfortable with CI/CD and Git-based workflows. Solid grasp of data governance, access control models, and pipeline automation. Due to ITAR requirements, must be a US citizen or Green Card holder. Preferred Qualifications Experience with Palantir Virtual Tables or equivalent concepts on other platforms (Snowflake external tables, Databricks Unity Catalog external tables, BigQuery external/federated tables). Interest in developing deeper Palantir expertise over time. Hands-on experience is not required today, but openness to growing into it is a plus. Prior exposure to Palantir Foundry, Snowflake, Databricks, or BigQuery in a production environment. Experience with streaming or near-real-time data processing (Kafka, Spark Streaming).","company":"Objectways","rawCompany":"objectways","city":"Myrtle Point","state":"OR","isRemote":true,"isActive":false,"createdAt":"2026-10-07T11:43:30.897Z","occupations":[{"code":"15-1243.01","title":"Data Warehousing Specialists","slug":"data-warehousing-specialists"},{"code":"15-1252.00","title":"Software Developers","slug":"software-developers"},{"code":"15-1299.08","title":"Computer Systems Engineers/Architects","slug":"computer-systems-engineers-architects"}],"industries":[{"code":"541512","title":"Computer Systems Design Services","slug":"computer-systems-design-services"},{"code":"518210","title":"Computing Infrastructure Providers, Data Processing, Web Hosting, and Related Services","slug":"computing-infrastructure-providers-data-processing-web-hosting-and-related-services"},{"code":"513210","title":"Software Publishers","slug":"software-publishers"}],"jobPosting":{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"JobPosting","title":"Sr. Cloud Data Platform Engineer","description":"About the Role Senior Data Engineer with strong DevOps and cloud infrastructure experience to build and operate the infrastructure and pipelines that support Palantir deployments.
