Cloud Architect – Platform Engineering & Security

About the Role

The MMS Infusion Team is seeking a Cloud Architect with a strong Platform Engineering focus to design, build, and operate a secure, scalable hybrid platform for regulated healthcare software. This role centers on creating internal developer platforms (IDPs) that provide paved roads, self-service capabilities, and secure-by-default infrastructure across cloud and on‑prem environments.

You will act as both architect and hands-on platform engineer, owning the platform as a product and enabling application teams to deliver compliant, reliable software efficiently in a highly regulated healthcare environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Architect and operate a hybrid platform spanning public cloud (Azure, AWS, GCP) and on‑premises environments.

• Design and evolve an Internal Developer Platform (IDP) that delivers self-service infrastructure, standardized templates, golden paths, and automated environment provisioning.

• Build and maintain platform-level CI/CD systems that support containerized, cloud-native, and on‑prem workloads.

• Develop reusable platform abstractions and components, including IaC modules, Helm charts, shared services, and platform APIs.

• Embed security, compliance, and reliability into the platform through policy-as-code, automated guardrails, and secure defaults.

• Implement and operate container orchestration platforms (Kubernetes, OpenShift, or equivalent), including cluster lifecycle management.

• Provide platform observability capabilities, including centralized logging, metrics, tracing, alerting, and SLO-based monitoring.

• Partner with application teams to improve developer experience, drive platform adoption, and reduce cognitive load.

• Lead incident response and platform reliability efforts, driving post-incident learning and continuous improvement.

Required Skills & Experience

• Strong software engineering experience in C#, Go, or similar languages, with automation using Python, TypeScript, or PowerShell.

• Hands-on experience designing and operating cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, GCP) and hybrid/on‑prem infrastructure.

• Proven experience building and scaling Platform Engineering or Internal Developer Platforms.

• Deep expertise in CI/CD architecture, self-service workflows, and developer tooling.

• Proficiency with Infrastructure-as-Code tools such as Terraform, Helm, and CloudFormation.

• Production experience with containers and Kubernetes, including platform-level concerns (networking, security, upgrades).

• Strong knowledge of platform security architecture, including IAM, secrets management, encryption, and network controls.

• Familiarity with regulated environments (HIPAA, NIST, FDA, medical devices) is a strong plus.

• Product mindset with a focus on platform usability, adoption metrics, and developer productivity.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.

• 15+ years of experience building enterprise-grade software, platforms, or infrastructure systems.

Tech Stack

• Dapr, Apache Kafka, .NET, Go, C#, Python, React, Microservices, REST/HTTP, gRPC (Protobuf), mTLS, X.509 (DigiCert), Databases, Docker, K3s, GitHub Actions, Terraform, k6, Cypress
