DevOps/Cloud Platform Engineer

Responsibilities: Design, build, and operate cloud infrastructure from the ground up, supporting application development, data engineering, and solution engineering teams. Partner with solution architects and engineering leaders to define cloud-native architectures, then independently translate those designs into fully implemented, production-ready environments. Take ownership of platform-level concerns, including networking, identity and access management, observability, CI/CD pipelines, and environment standardization. Apply strong DevOps principles to ensure infrastructure is automated, repeatable, testable, and version-controlled using infrastructure-as-code. Build and maintain scalable, resilient, and secure cloud platforms that serve as the backbone for healthcare and life sciences solutions, recognizing that reliability and trust are non-negotiable. Serve as a subject matter expert for end-to-end cloud architectures across AWS and managed Kubernetes, with deep hands-on experience in at least one. Evolve our cloud playbook by creating and maintaining reusable, well-documented cloud and DevOps patterns that enable teams to move quickly and safely. Research, evaluate, and prototype new technologies, services, and tooling, making evidence-based recommendations for adoption. Design and implement solutions for security, high availability, disaster recovery, and large-scale data streaming, ensuring platforms meet both technical and regulatory expectations. Contribute meaningfully to architectural discussions by providing practical implementation insight, trade-off analysis, and operational perspective.

Qualifications: Bachelor’s degree in computer science, systems analysis, or a related field, or equivalent hands-on experience. 3+ years of hands-on experience designing and building cloud infrastructure, not just maintaining it, on AWS. Demonstrated experience owning cloud architectures end to end, including initial design, foundational build, and ongoing iteration. Strong experience with DevOps toolchains, including CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and release automation. Proven expertise with infrastructure-as-code technologies such as Terraform, CloudFormation, or similar tools. Deep understanding of cloud architecture principles, including the AWS Well-Architected Framework (or equivalent), with real-world implementation experience. Strong security mindset, with hands-on experience implementing identity, network security, encryption, and least-privilege access. Demonstrated experience building and operating containerized platforms using Docker, Kubernetes, or similar technologies. Strong documentation skills, including experience producing architecture diagrams, runbooks, and documentation-as-code. Experience supporting microservices-based architectures in production environments. Experience in healthcare and/or life sciences is preferred, but not required. Do you believe you are a fit?
