About the Role:

Are you a hands-on technical powerhouse who thrives on execution? We are seeking a highly driven Cloud Infrastructure & Security Engineer to design, build, and operate a robust Azure cloud platform from the ground up.

In this role, you won’t just be maintaining the status quo—you’ll be leading by doing. You will own the infrastructure, drive modern DevOps practices, and spearhead end-to-end cloud operations. By partnering closely with our development, product, and security teams, you will play a critical part in shaping a secure, scalable, and highly reliable Azure environment. This is a full time and fully remote position.

Key Responsibilities:

Cloud Infrastructure & Architecture

  • Design & Deploy: Architect and implement cutting-edge Azure infrastructure.

  • Automate Everything: Build, manage, and scale using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform).

  • Take Ownership: Command the cloud environment architecture, including advanced networking, segmentation, and access control.

CI/CD & DevOps Excellence

  • Pipeline Mastery: Build and maintain seamless CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps preferred).

  • Optimize Delivery: Champion deployment reliability, accelerate speed, and refine rollback strategies.

  • Unify Teams: Standardize build and release processes across diverse engineering squads.

Security & Compliance

  • Secure the Fort: Partner with the Security team to implement and maintain stringent FedRAMP-compliant controls.

  • Enforce Best Practices: Rigorously apply RBAC/least privilege, Azure Policy, and comprehensive logging/monitoring.

  • Audit Readiness: Support continuous compliance and seamless evidence collection.

Monitoring, Reliability & Operations

  • Stay Vigilant: Implement top-tier monitoring, alerting, and observability using Azure Monitor and Log Analytics.

  • Lead the Charge: Drive incident response and conduct thorough root cause analysis (RCA).

  • Maximize Performance: Continuously improve system availability, reliability, and speed.

Cross-Functional Leadership

  • Bridge the Gap: Act as the vital link between engineering and security, ensuring product features align with platform capabilities.

  • Set the Standard: Define and enforce cloud best practices while influencing core architectural decisions.

  • Elevate the Team: Mentor fellow engineers and foster a collaborative, high-performance culture.


Required Qualifications:
  • Experience: 5+ years of hands-on experience in cloud infrastructure, heavily focused on Microsoft Azure.

  • Core Tooling: Deep expertise in Terraform (IaC) and CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps or similar).

  • Azure Mastery: A solid understanding of Azure networking (VNet, private endpoints, NSGs) and Identity & Access Management (Entra ID, RBAC).

  • Security-Minded: Experience working within rigorous cloud security and compliance frameworks (FedRAMP preferred).

  • Problem Solver: Proven ability to troubleshoot, diagnose, and flawlessly operate complex production systems.

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience operating in highly regulated environments (GovCloud / GCC High / FedRAMP).

  • Familiarity with modern observability tooling.

  • Experience integrating SAST/DAST into delivery pipelines.

  • Knowledge of Azure Defender for Cloud / Microsoft Sentinel.

  • An understanding of Zero-Trust network architecture principles.

WiredPeople began in 2010 as an organization directed at solving staffing gaps. We saw the need for access to an experienced workforce. We developed a plan of action that would go beyond the scope of typical staffing agencies and provide innovative solutions for organizations to get the personnel they needed to achieve their objectives. With our experience in the Public Health, IT, and Cybersecurity industries, we delivered valuable results for our clients.

WiredPeople then evolved into a full-service consulting firm, developing and executing strategic projects with our clients in the IT, Cybersecurity, and Public Health fields. This progression came about when we realized our clients had expert needs that went beyond solely staffing issues. Our clients would run into obstacles that kept them from being able to accomplish their business objectives. With our experience in their industries, we proposed that we could provide solutions for them by applying innovation and strategy.
