Job Title: Cloud Platform Support Engineer on w2
Duration: Contract
Work Location: Hybrid in Columbia, SC-Onsite is Highly Preferred but open to Remote (Cloud Engineer)
Required Technologies:
• Full stack Java implementation with JSPs, JS, and others
• Microsoft Azure and/or AWS, Hands-on experience with core services such as virtual machines, networking, storage, and identity management in Azure or AWS is essential for managing and deploying cloud infrastructure.
• Infrastructure as Code (IaC) – Terraform or ARM Templates, Proficiency in using Terraform or Azure Resource Manager (ARM) templates to automate the provisioning and configuration of cloud resources is critical for scalability and consistency.
• Linux/Unix Operating Systems, Strong experience with Linux-based systems is required for managing cloud-hosted environments, scripting, and troubleshooting.
• Cloud Monitoring and Management Tools – Azure Monitor, AWS CloudWatch, or similar, Familiarity with tools used to monitor performance, availability, and security of cloud environments is necessary for maintaining operational health.
• Agile Business Analyst Experience
Nice To Have:
• Cloud Security Tools and Practices
• Understanding of cloud-native security tools (e.g., Azure Security Center, AWS IAM policies) and best practices for securing cloud infrastructure is a strong asset, especially in regulated environments.
Day to Day: A typical day for a Cloud Engineer (ANL, SYSTEM SUPP / IT480) involves a mix of building, supporting, automating, and optimizing cloud infrastructure to ensure secure, scalable, and efficient operations. The day often begins with monitoring cloud environments using tools like Azure Monitor or AWS CloudWatch to check for performance issues, outages, or anomalies. The engineer may then use Terraform or ARM templates to provision or update infrastructure, ensuring consistency and compliance with organizational standards.
They frequently work in Linux-based environments, using Bash or Python scripts to automate routine tasks, manage configurations, or troubleshoot system-level issues. Throughout the day, they may collaborate with DevOps, security, and application teams to integrate new services, deploy updates, or optimize resource usage. While not required, experience with Kubernetes, Ansible, or cloud security tools may come into play when supporting containerized workloads or implementing secure configurations. The role is hands-on and dynamic, requiring both technical depth and adaptability to evolving cloud technologies.
Not Looking for: I’m not looking for only on premise infrastructure experience.
