Full Job Description
Overview

Overview:

We'relooking for a Senior Cloud Infrastructure Engineer to own the design, resilience, and day-to-day health ofHealthEdge'sinfrastructure across AWS and our hybrid on-prem/Azure/GCP estate. This role sits at the intersection of cloud engineering and infrastructure engineering spanning AWS migration execution, disaster recovery, patching and platform currency, and the security/compliance controls that keep our security obligations intact.It'sa hands-on senior IC role for someone who wants deep ownership of infrastructure resilience across a large, multi-account, multi-platform environmentthat'sactively migrating off legacy on-prem infrastructure.

Areas of Responsibility:

Infrastructure and Hybrid Cloud Architecture

  • Design, build, andmaintaininfrastructure across AWS (primary), with supporting work in Azure and GCP, plus the on-prem estate still in active retirement
  • Own infrastructure across the environments including secure configuration baselines and patch management for OS images and on-prem hardware
  • Build andmaintainreusable, auditable Infrastructure as Codefor clouddeployments,andforremainingon-prem server deployment.
  • Support cloud networking execution,VPC provisioning, security group standards, and related connectivity work.
  • Manage storage across cloud and legacy on-prem storage as workloads migrate; contribute to on-prem retirement and datacenter decommissioning efforts.
  • Support AWS migration execution for in-flight waves, including serverdeploymentsand resource change requests viaIaC.

Disaster Recovery & Resilience

  • Own disaster recovery architecture and execution across cloud environments.
  • Maintain DR solutions and backup strategy and run DR drills on a regularcadence; document gaps and drive remediation.
  • Design for resilience from the startandtreat recoverability as a first-class requirement, not an afterthought.

Security, Compliance & Vulnerability Management

  • Contribute to vulnerability management triage across infrastructure teams, threat detection, and infra security findings review.
  • Support PHI/PII classification scanning, penetration test coordination, and security exception approvals.
  • Maintain compliance controls; support HIPAA and SOC 2 audit readiness,access review and recertification, evidence collection, and change freeze coordination.
  • Maintain EKS container runtime security sensor coverage as part of ongoing platform hardening.

Cloud Infrastructure Operations

  • Design and manageroles andcross-account access controls following least-privilege principles across multi-account, multi-cloud environments.
  • Own cloud execution: load balancers, DNS(),VPC provisioning, and security group standards.
  • Managecomputeresources at scale with an eye toward right-sizing and long-term maintainability.
  • Administer cloud storage and database services with attention to cost, performance, and resilience.
  • Own infrastructure health, cost, and performance monitoring using native and third-party tooling, building the observability that lets issues surface before they become incidents.
  • Administer and harden Linux and Windows Server environments across cloud and on-prem, including patching, performance tuning, troubleshooting, Active Directory integration, Group Policy, DNS, and certificate services.
  • Manage hybrid identity and authentication across on-prem and cloudworkloads, andmaintain OS-level security baselines and hardening standards across the estate.

CI/CD, Automation & Delivery

  • Build and evolve CI/CD pipelines for secure, repeatable infrastructure deployments.
  • Write automation to reduce manual toil and enforce operational consistency across cloud and on-prem environments.
  • Take solutions from proof-of-concept to production with an eye toward long-term maintainability, not just getting it working once.

Reliability, Monitoring & Incident Response

  • Monitor, scale, andmaintainproduction infrastructure with availability, performance, and security as top priorities.
  • Participate in on-call rotation; serve asL2escalation point for cross-team infrastructure support; lead root cause analysis and drive incident retrospectives to closure.
  • Author andmaintainrunbooks that hold up under pressure, not just at handoff.

Cost & Tagging Governance

  • Contribute to FinOps efforts:identifyand remediate cost anomalies, own tagging remediation against enterprise tagging standards, and make pragmatic cost/performance/resilience tradeoffs.

AI-Enabled Engineering

  • Use AI coding assistants to accelerateIaCdevelopment, scripting, and troubleshooting.
  • Use AI tooling to draft first-pass runbooks, DR documentation, and incident retrospectivestovalidateand refine before publishing.

Collaboration & Documentation

  • Document architecture, DR runbooks, and standard operating procedures others can actually follow under pressure.
  • Providetechnical guidance to product teams on infrastructure resilience, migration sequencing, and recovery design.

Required Qualifications

  • 5+ years of hands-on cloud infrastructure engineering experience, with deepexpertisein AWSand in other cloudenvironments.
  • Direct experience with disaster recovery design and execution.

  • Experience with containerized environments and Kubernetes/EKS, including version upgrade and lifecycle management.
  • Linux and Windows Server administration experience, including patching and OS lifecycle management at scale.
  • Solid IAM design experience, including cross-account access and least-privilege enforcement.
  • Strong scripting ability (Python, Bash, or PowerShell).
  • Experience building andmaintainingCI/CD pipelines.
  • Comfortable being the primary on-call and L2 escalation point for infrastructure incidents.

Experienceoperatingin regulated environments (FedRAMP, HIPAA, SOC 2) and understanding of what that means for infrastructure and DR design specifically.

  • AWS certification (Solutions Architect orSysOps, Associate or Professional).
  • Experience with hybrid infrastructure,bridging on-prem virtualization with cloud-native services during active migration.
  • Familiarity with DISA STIG or CIS benchmark hardening, and vulnerability management/triage workflows.
  • FinOps or cost governance experience, including taggingstandardsenforcement.
  • Healthcare technology or digital health platform background.
  • Experience with AI-assisted engineering workflows as part of daily practice.

Behaviors & Traits

  • Raises risk early rather than waiting for it to become an incident.
  • Comfortable with ambiguity in a large, multi-account, evolving cloud environment.
