Description

The Role: 

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced cloud engineer to design, develop, integrate, and maintain business focused, hybrid technology platforms.  In this role, you will collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure seamless integration, delivery, and ongoing support of cloud services with on-premises systems, applications, and SaaS resources.  The ideal candidate will have a strong hands-on background in cloud platforms and integration technologies, combined with excellent problem-solving and communication skills. 

 This position will be onsite in Somerville, MA with a flexible hybrid schedule. 

Here's how you will contribute:

Capture product and security requirements and translate them within integrated application and platform components — defining network boundaries, least-privilege IAM trust/policies in a multi-account environment, Terraform modules with Terragrunt supplied inputs, data access patterns, and GitOps promotion — while documenting and communicating trade-offs, SLOs, and compliance constraints.
Design, build, and maintain GitLab CI/CD with OIDC to build and push containers, deploy using Helm and Argo CD, while implementing end-to-end identity and secret flows (GitLab → AWS IAM → Kubernetes IRSA/ServiceAccounts → AWS Secrets Manager) for cross-account, auditable deployments with safe promotion/rollback to deliver applied architecture.
Capture product and security requirements and translate them within integrated application and platform components — defining network boundaries, least-privilege IAM trust/policies in a multi-account environment, Terraform modules with Terragrunt supplied inputs, data access patterns, and GitOps promotion — while documenting and communicating trade-offs, SLOs, and compliance constraints.
As an ongoing product and service owner-- capture, measure, analyze, and monitor platform resource efficiency and reliability using tools like OTEL, DataDog, and CloudWatch, and apply creative solutions for continual evolution and efficiency improvements.
Create and iterate technical solutions leveraging organization-wide best practices and policies covering reusable Terraform modules, Helm chart templates, GitLab CI !include jobs, and other high level application deployment patterns that streamline developer experiences at scale while enforcing security and consistency in a highly autonomous, distributed environment.
Coordinate effective integration and deployment of emerging solutions, leading design and development of extensibleintegration paths between SaaS platforms, databases, and legacy applications, including API management and middleware solutions. 
Identify and resolve integration related issues, including data inconsistencies, communication failures, and performance bottlenecks. 
Work closely with development teams, system architects, and business stakeholders to ensure integration solutions meet the organization's "best fit" collective outcome requirements. 
Test and validate emerging solutions and integrations to ensure they function as expected and meet performance, quality, and security standards. 
Create and maintain detailed technical documentation, including system architecture, design specifications, and integration workflows. 

Requirements
