• Partner with Compliance and Security teams to support HIPAA, SOC 2, Medicaid, and state-specific requirements

• Enforce cloud governance standards such as tagging, cost controls, and resource lifecycle policies

• Automate routine cloud tasks using PowerShell, Bash, Python, Terraform, Bicep, or similar technologies

• Identify and implement resource optimization to control cloud spend and improve efficiency

• Serve as escalation point for cloud-related operational issues across Technology, Operations, and Support teams

• Conduct root-cause analysis and contribute to long-term corrective actions

• Manage backup policies, snapshots, replication, and disaster recovery configurations

• Support business continuity initiatives for mission-critical systems such as payroll, tax processing, and member enrollment

• Create and maintain documentation for cloud configurations, standard operating procedures, and architectural patterns

• Collaborate with DevOps, Development, Security, Operations, and Customer Support teams to deliver reliable cloud solutions

Requirements:

• Minimum 5 years professional experience administering cloud environments (Azure, AWS, or both)

• Hands-on expertise with virtual machines, cloud networking, identity management, and monitoring tools

• Strong understanding of cloud security best practices, IAM, and regulatory compliance considerations

• Experience with scripting or automation using PowerShell, Bash, Python, Terraform, or similar technologies

• Strong analytical, troubleshooting, time-management, and documentation skills

• Ability to work independently and collaborate effectively in a remote team environment

Preferred:

• Industry certifications such as Azure Administrator (AZ-104), AWS SysOps Administrator, or equivalent

• Experience in healthcare, government, financial services, or regulated industries

• Knowledge of HIPAA, SOC 2, Medicaid program requirements, or other compliance frameworks
