Job Description:

This is a senior individual contributor engineering role leading the design, development, and implementation of advanced cloud automation solutions. You’ll own the execution and delivery of large-scale projects while collaborating across multiple teams in addition to being responsible for hands on keyboard execution of project components. Example projects include migration of existing on-prem systems to cloud, migration of existing cloud systems to alternate/new cloud(s), integration of acquired systems into our unified environment, and deployment of net-new cloud systems. This role offers high executive visibility, as you will influence strategic decisions and present progress and outcomes to senior leadership. This role sits within the Aladdin Platform Hosting Services team, which is responsible for building and managing the infrastructure hosting platform upon which the Aladdin system runs. Our team provides reusable infrastructure services and components that allow developers to leverage cloud capabilities in a simple, cloud-agnostic, and scalable manner.

Job Responsibility:

  • Architect and implement secure, scalable, and automated cloud infrastructure solutions across multi-cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP) tailored for financial workloads
  • Lead automation initiatives using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools such as Terraform, Ansible, and CloudFormation to support mission-critical financial applications
  • Develop CI/CD pipelines for cloud deployments and application delivery with strict adherence to financial compliance and audit requirements
  • Champion an automation-first mindset by identifying repetitive tasks and implementing automation solutions—even for processes that initially appear as one-offs
  • Leverage AI tools and frameworks to enhance efficiency, optimize workflows, and enable the broader engineering team to adopt AI-driven solutions
  • Collaborate with risk, compliance, and security teams to ensure all automation processes meet regulatory standards (e.g., SOX, PCI-DSS, FFIEC)
  • Adopt a product-centric approach, treating internal platforms and automation frameworks as products with clear ownership, lifecycle management, and continuous improvement
  • Own execution and delivery of large-scale projects, balancing hands-on technical work with cross-functional collaboration across engineering, operations, and governance teams
  • Provide executive-level updates, influencing strategic decisions and ensuring alignment with organizational priorities
  • Evaluate emerging technologies for automation, scalability, and reliability in financial contexts, including cost optimization and resiliency planning

Requirements:

  • 10+ years of experience in technology systems development or management
  • At least 5+ years focused on cloud automation and infrastructure engineering
  • 3+ years expertise in Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools such as Terraform, Ansible, or similar
  • Strong experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) and hybrid environments in regulated industries
  • Proficiency in scripting and programming languages (Python, PowerShell, Bash)
  • 3+ years hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, etc), containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and orchestration frameworks
  • Deep understanding of networking, security, and compliance in cloud environments, including encryption, identity management, and audit logging
  • Excellent leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills
  • Experience in contributing to Agile teams so that everyone achieves their goals

Nice to have:

  • Advanced certifications such as AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional, Azure Solutions Architect Expert, or Google Professional Cloud Architect
  • Experience with financial compliance frameworks (SOX, PCI-DSS, FFIEC) and automated security controls
  • Background in DevSecOps, automated governance, and AI-driven automation strategies
  • Background in Kubernetes (k8s) system management
  • Experience with “next-gen” IaC tools such as Crossplane, Radius, Pulumi, env0, spacelift, etc.
What we offer:
  • Retirement investment and tools designed to help you in building a sound financial future
  • Access to education reimbursement
  • Comprehensive resources to support your physical health and emotional well-being
  • Family support programs
  • Flexible Time Off (FTO)
