About the role

We are seeking a hands-on Cloud Infrastructure Engineer to support, manage, and optimize infrastructure across multi-cloud and on-premises environments. This role will work with AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), supporting day-to-day cloud operations, infrastructure provisioning, performance, security, connectivity, capacity management, and automation. The ideal candidate has a strong traditional IT infrastructure foundation combined with hands-on cloud experience. This person should be comfortable working across multiple cloud platforms rather than being limited to a single provider.

Responsibilities

  • Provision, configure, manage, and decommission virtual machines, containers, storage, networking, and other cloud resources.
  • Support infrastructure across AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI environments.
  • Establish and maintain asset tagging and resource organization standards to support inventory management, reporting, governance, and cost visibility.
  • Monitor cloud infrastructure performance and troubleshoot availability, utilization, and performance issues.
  • Perform resource optimization and right-sizing based on capacity, utilization, performance, and business requirements.
  • Configure new cloud environments for departments and business units, including resource organization, networking, access, security, and governance.
  • Apply general cloud security best practices, including identity and access management, permissions, network security, and resource protection.
  • Support and troubleshoot VPNs, networking, DNS, routing, and connectivity between cloud and on-premises environments.
  • Provide infrastructure-level support to development teams, including troubleshooting issues involving APIs, authentication, connectivity, and cloud services.
  • Perform capacity planning, utilization monitoring, and infrastructure reporting across cloud environments.
  • Support both Windows and Linux infrastructure.
  • Identify repetitive administrative processes and automate routine infrastructure tasks.
  • Develop scripts and automation using technologies such as PowerShell, Bash, and Python.
  • Troubleshoot infrastructure issues spanning cloud, networking, operating systems, and applications.
  • Maintain documentation of cloud configurations, processes, procedures, and infrastructure standards.

Requirements

  • 4+ years of experience in IT infrastructure, systems administration, cloud engineering, or a related role.
  • Exposure to multi-cloud environments strongly preferred.
  • Experience provisioning and managing virtual machines, compute resources, storage, networking, and/or containers.
  • Understanding of cloud networking, VPN technologies, DNS, routing, firewalls, and connectivity.
  • Experience with cloud resource monitoring, performance management, capacity planning, and right-sizing.
  • Working knowledge of cloud security, IAM, permissions, and access control concepts.
  • Experience supporting Windows and Linux environments.
  • Scripting and automation experience using PowerShell, Bash, Python, or similar technologies.
  • Basic understanding of APIs and application-to-infrastructure connectivity.
  • Strong troubleshooting skills with the ability to work across infrastructure, cloud, networking, and application environments.

Benefits

  • Medical, vision, dental, and life and disability insurance for contract/temporary professionals.
  • Eligibility to enroll in the company 401(k) plan.
  • Competitive compensation.
  • Free online training.
