DevOps/Cloud Platform Engineer
About this role
Employer-provided description, formatted for easier reading.
VedaPointe and its partners are highly reliant on our presence in the cloud. We are entrusted to design, build, secure, and operate cloud\-native platforms that power healthcare and life sciences technologies at scale.
We seek a hands\-on DevOps/Cloud Platform Engineer who can design and build cloud architectures from the ground up, translate architectural intent into production\-grade infrastructure, and continuously evolve our cloud platforms using modern DevOps practices.
You will own the end\-to\-end lifecycle of cloud infrastructure from greenfield architecture and foundational platform build\-out, through automation, deployment, and long\-term optimization.
### **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.
