Job description

We are seeking a Senior Cloud Infrastructure Engineer with deep VDI expertise to play a key role in designing, optimizing, and securing the underlying infrastructure that powers our organization’s cloud environments. As we continue to transform, consolidate, and evolve our cloud environments, this role will be instrumental in architecting scalable, secure, automated, and resilient infrastructure, ensuring seamless workload migration, and integrating new cloud environments into our ecosystem.

With a focus on core cloud infrastructure, including networking, VDI, identity and access management, security, storage, compute, and cross-cloud integrations, you will collaborate closely with peers in infrastructure, security, and other areas of the platform engineering team to ensure our cloud environment adheres to best practices, governance frameworks, and automation-first principles.

What You Will Do:

  • Using Infrastructure as Code tools and mindset, automate the deployment of the environments we provide to our application teams and business units to maximize portability, in a way that is as Simple, Secure, and Scalable as possible
  • With an emphasis on networking, directly support platform engineering partners and application development teams in troubleshooting, provisioning and maintaining various enterprise infrastructure services
  • Deploy, maintain, and optimize network infrastructure in Azure, AWS, & GCP
  • Configure and manage virtual networks and subnets, including IP addressing, routing, firewall rules, and load balancing
  • Through IPAM, maintain a network topology that provides for integration testing among development teams while remaining flexible enough to unify additional environments as merger and acquisition requires
  • Design, deploy, maintain, evolve, and optimize VDI platforms and their underlying network, compute, and storage dependencies
  • Solution and implement Direct Connect, Express Route, and VPN technologies to establish secure, reliable and resilient connections
  • Work closely with Security and Compliance to ensure security framework adherence (SOC2, Hi-Trust, FEDRAMP etc.)
  • Be a force multiplier for the development teams, enabling them to focus on delivering business value as quickly and efficiently as possible
  • Drive transformation and standardization of our foundational infrastructure services as the environment evolves and the business grows, including optimizing processes, developing policies, and leveraging automation to enable self-service infrastructure for our engineering partners
