• Lead evaluation and proof-of-concept testing of new tools and services
• Support application and platform teams with migrations, service onboarding, and scaling requests, taking a more active design role than junior engineers
• Drive cost optimization (FinOps) efforts on owned components, including rightsizing, waste identification, and cost-anomaly follow-up
• Mentor Cloud Infrastructure Engineer I/II staff on troubleshooting, IaC practices, and runbook execution
• Maintain and improve runbooks and documentation for owned systems, including audit-ready evidence for GxP-relevant workloads
• Ensure adherence to approved reference architectures, security baselines, and tagging conventions for all provisioned resources
• Contribute to architecture alignment discussions and escalate structural or design-level concerns to the Cloud Ops Lead

• Experience with containerization (Docker) and orchestration (Kubernetes)
• Experience with monitoring and observability tooling (Datadog, Prometheus/Grafana, CloudWatch, or similar)
• Experience leading RCA and incident response for production systems
• Clear written communication skills; able to document work, lead runbook development, and drive established change control processes
• Ability to work independently on complex tasks while mentoring junior team members
• Willingness and ability to relocate per the assignment schedule (India for 3 months, then Ireland for 9 months), including any associated visa/work authorization requirements

Preferred Qualifications

• AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional, Microsoft Certified: Azure Administrator Associate, or equivalent
• Terraform Associate certification
• Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA)
• Experience in a nonprofit, foundation, or highly regulated (GxP, HIPAA) environment with data governance and audit-readiness requirements

Success Criteria

• Assigned components consistently meet or exceed defined SLAs/SLOs for uptime and performance
• Independently resolves complex incidents and drives RCA with minimal senior review
• Mentorship of junior engineers is evident in their growing independence
