  • Collaboration:
    • Coordinate environment usage, scheduling, and access across development, testing, data, and integration teams
    • Partner with cloud architects, security engineers, and application teams to resolve cross‑stack issues
    • Support integration and test events by ensuring cloud environments are stable, performant, and mission‑ready
  • Technical Performance:
    • Troubleshoot cloud infrastructure, environment, and configuration‑related issues across AWS and Azure
    • Perform log analysis, performance tuning, and diagnostics using cloud‑native tools (e.g., CloudWatch, Azure Monitor)
    • Support environment provisioning, access management, configuration validation, and readiness checks
    • Assist with deployments, patching, and environment updates across multi‑cloud environments
  • Additional Responsibilities:
    • Provide hands‑on support for cloud resource optimization, cost management, and environment scaling
    • Participate in operational reviews, issue triage sessions, and cloud environment health assessments
    • Contribute to continuous improvement of cloud sustainment processes and operational best practices

Minimum Requirements

  • Education:
    • Recommended bachelor's degree in Cloud Computing, Computer Science, Information Systems, Software Engineering, or related field (master's preferred)
  • Experience:
    • Recommended 10 years in systems engineering, cloud operations, or infrastructure management supporting enterprise or government systems
  • Technical Proficiency:
    • Hands‑on experience administering AWS and/or Azure environments
    • Strong understanding of cloud networking, IAM, monitoring, and infrastructure troubleshooting
    • Experience with environment management, configuration control, and multi‑environment orchestration
    • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, cloud security controls, and environment lifecycle management
  • Compliance:
    • Must meet DoD and contract‑specific requirements; active Secret clearance required
  • Certifications:
    • Relevant certifications such as CompTIA Sec+, CompTIA Cloud+, AWS or Azure Certifications

Preferred Expertise

  • Demonstrated success supporting federal or DoD enterprise cloud environments
  • Experience with cloud sustainment, environment lifecycle management, and operational readiness
  • Familiarity with enterprise monitoring tools, log aggregation platforms, and cloud performance diagnostics
  • Experience supporting large‑scale modernization or migration efforts
