What We're Looking For
Michael Baker International is seeking a Senior Cloud DevOps Engineer to join our Digital Solutions team in a fully remote capacity. In this hands-on senior role, you will design, build, and maintain MBI's enterprise cloud infrastructure across Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services, reporting directly to the CTO and collaborating with the VP of Product, VP of Infrastructure, and CISO to align cloud platforms with product delivery, operational reliability, and security compliance. You will play a pivotal role in advancing MBI's Vision 2030 digital transformation strategy—driving CI/CD automation, Infrastructure as Code practices, AI/ML infrastructure enablement, and platform engineering across the enterprise.
What You'll Do
- Design and implement enterprise-scale multi-cloud infrastructure across Microsoft Azure and AWS, with a focus on Azure as the primary platform, ensuring high availability, fault tolerance, and performance for all environments and services.
- Develop and deploy Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform as the primary tool, with proficiency in ARM/Bicep and AWS CloudFormation to standardize cloud provisioning, enforce configuration governance, and enable repeatable, version-controlled deployments.
- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions and GitHub as the primary version control system to automate build, test, and deployment processes aligned with product delivery timelines.
- Establish comprehensive monitoring, observability, and incident response capabilities using Azure Monitor, CloudWatch, Datadog, and Prometheus to uphold enterprise SLAs, detect anomalies, and drive continuous reliability improvement.
- Manage Azure infrastructure fundamentals including subscriptions, tenants, VNets, VWAN, Network Security Groups, and firewalls to establish secure, scalable, and compliant cloud foundations.
- Drive cloud cost optimization through FinOps practices—leveraging Azure Cost Management and AWS Cost Explorer to right-size resources, implement governance frameworks, and eliminate waste across the enterprise.
- Enforce security and compliance standards across cloud environments in partnership with the CISO, implementing IAM controls, network segmentation, encryption, and zero-trust architecture aligned with SOC 2, FedRAMP, and CMMC requirements.
- Serve as MBI's primary technical liaison with Microsoft Azure and AWS—managing vendor partnerships, coordinating architecture reviews, and aligning the cloud roadmap with provider capabilities and strategic initiatives.
- Write automation scripts and tools in Python, Bash, or PowerShell to streamline infrastructure deployment, system integration, and DevOps workflows.
What You Need to Succeed
