The Opportunity:
Everyone is trying to “harness the power of the cloud,” but not everyone knows how. As an experienced cloud computing and DevOps architect, you know how to take advantage of cloud capabilities.

You’ll collaborate closely with fellow cloud architects and engineers specializing in cloud to architect, build, and deliver multi-cloud solution components. You’ll have the chance to broaden your experience within a DevOps framework to lead, build, and manage container apps and use products like Kubernetes to further the mission. With access to our internal Azure, AWS, OCI, and GCP labs, you’ll have the space and time to explore different ways of solving our client’s challenges, and you’ll partner with stakeholders and lead your team to deliver and scale the right technical solutions. Whether modernizing legacy computing platforms and applications, building new ones from scratch, or leading continuous integration and deployment, you’ll have the latest tech and brightest teammates at your fingertips.
