About the role

  • Automate operational tasks such as patching, scaling, monitoring, alerting, and cost optimization to reduce manual effort and improve reliability.
  • Monitor cloud security posture; identify and remediate misconfigurations, drift, and policy violations (including integration of CSPM tools where applicable).

Responsibilities

  • Cloud Architecture & Infrastructure Design and deploy AWS cloud architectures that meet performance, security, availability, and cost-efficiency requirements for enterprise and research applications.
  • Build and maintain core cloud components, including networking, compute, storage, and identity, with security-by-design (least privilege, segmentation, encryption, defense-in-depth).
  • Evaluate and recommend cloud services and architectural patterns; develop evidence-based adoption proposals that balance capability, operational cost, and long-term sustainability.
  • Automation & Deployment Implement and maintain infrastructure-as-code (IaC) using Terraform, CloudFormation, Ansible, or equivalent to make provisioning repeatable and auditable.
  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines for infrastructure and application deployments with testing, validation, safe releases, and rollback strategies.
  • Partner with cybersecurity teams to align cloud platform security to enterprise threat models and relevant regulated requirements (e.g., GxP, 21 CFR Part 11, HIPAA, SOX as applicable).
  • Operational Excellence & Optimization Monitor performance, availability, and cost; right-size resources and drive FinOps practices to reduce waste and improve ROI.
  • Troubleshoot infrastructure issues and participate in post-incident reviews; implement preventive improvements to reduce recurrence.
