IT Cloud Engineer | Remote, USA

FishNet Security

Optiv is hiring an IT Cloud Engineer. The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in VMware technologies (vSphere, ESXi, vCenter, NSX, vSAN) and the ability to integrate those environments with modern cloud services. This position plays a key role in building scalable, secure, and cost-effective hybrid solutions while improving automation, monitoring, and operational efficiency.

This individual will work closely with infrastructure, security, and application teams to ensure a smooth migration process, maintain compliance standards, and support ongoing optimization of both VMware and cloud environments.

How you'll make an impact

  • Design, deployment, and optimization of enterprise VMware environments (vSphere, vCenter, ESXi) supporting hybrid and cloud migration strategies

  • Assess existing on-prem VMware workloads and develop migration strategies to AWS, Azure, or GCP (e.g., VMware Cloud on AWS, Azure VMware Solution, GCVE)

  • Design and implement highly available, scalable, and secure hybrid cloud architectures leveraging VMware and native cloud services

  • Deploy and maintain Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform, CloudFormation, or ARM templates for both VMware and cloud-native environments

  • Manage and optimize core VMware components including clusters, storage (vSAN), networking (NSX), and disaster recovery solutions

  • Support and optimize IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS integrations as part of cloud migration and modernization initiatives

  • Ensure seamless connectivity and workload mobility between on-prem VMware environments and cloud platforms

  • Lead end-to-end VMware workload migrations to the cloud, including discovery, assessment, planning, execution, and post-migration optimization

  • Define migration patterns (rehost, refactor, re-platform) based on application dependencies and business requirements

  • Coordinate with application, network, and security teams to ensure successful migration outcomes

  • Troubleshoot complex hybrid environment issues across VMware and cloud platforms

  • Partner with cloud architects, infrastructure teams, security, and application teams to align migration strategies with business priorities

  • Create and maintain detailed technical documentation, migration runbooks, and best practices

  • Contribute to architectural standards and reference designs

What we're looking for

  • 5+ years of hands-on cloud engineering experience (AWS, Azure, or GCP) with prior general IT/infrastructure background

  • 7+ years of overall IT infrastructure or systems experience, including server, network, and storage platforms

  • Strong experience with at least one major cloud provider: AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud Platform (GCP)

  • Expertise in compute, storage, networking, and security services

  • Experience with hybrid and multi-cloud architectures

  • Experience migrating workloads from on-premises environments (e.g., VMware) to cloud platforms

  • Proficiency with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools such as: Terraform, CloudFormation / ARM /Bicep

  • Strong scripting and automation skills: Python, PowerShell, Bash

  • Working knowledge of security frameworks such as NIST, CIS, or ISO 27001

  • Experience implementing cloud security guardrails, identity-first access controls, logging, encryption, and compliance controls

  • One or more active cloud certifications such as:AWS Certified (Associate or Professional), Microsoft Azure Certified, or Google Cloud Professional Engineer highly preferred

  • Ability to travel up to 10%
