Job Description
Summary: Upbound Group, Inc. is a technology and data-driven leader in accessible and inclusive financial solutions. They are seeking a CloudOps Engineer Intern to modernize and automate core CloudOps responsibilities using Agentic AI, focusing on practical automations that reduce operational toil and enhance workflows.
Responsibilities:
- Build Agentic AI Workflows for CloudOps “Day-to-Day” Tasks
- Design and prototype agentic workflows that can assist with (or partially automate) common CloudOps tasks, such as:
- Cost analysis & variance explanation (e.g., drivers of month-over-month change)
- Cost anomaly detection triage (adding context like recent changes, new projects, deployments)
- Incident response support (accelerate investigation and shorten time-to-resolution)
- Reporting automation (convert raw data into more meaningful narratives and summaries)
- Governance and operational workflows (identify automation opportunities, recommend guardrails)
- Access request workflows that require IaC changes (example: mapping permissions/security groups and running implementation jobs)
- Vulnerability remediation through IaC driven by findings from tools (e.g., AWS Advisor, Orca)
- DR execution/validation support and runbook improvements
- Developer support “ticket-to-fix” automation across common intake channels (e.g., ServiceNow/Jira patterns referenced in team workflows)
Required Qualifications:
- Currently pursuing a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field
- Strong interest in Cloud Engineering / DevOps / Automation (AWS/Azure/GCP exposure a plus)
Preferred Qualifications:
- Scripting/programming familiarity (e.g., Python) and comfort learning new APIs/tools (useful for automation and agent tool-calling)
- Familiarity with IaC (Terraform and/or CloudFormation concepts)
- Familiarity with CI/CD concepts (pipelines, logs, deployments)
- Curiosity and willingness to learn responsible AI practices and governance
Required Skills: Cloud Engineering, DevOps, Automation, AWS, Azure, GCP, Python, Infrastructure as Code, Terraform, CloudFormation, CI/CD, Incident Response
