Senior Platform Engineer

Help us build and operate the AWS and Azure platforms behind Health Edge’s healthcare payer products, a multi account/subscription, multi-region environment. As a Senior Platform Engineer on Cloud Platform Services, you will own infrastructure platform projects from design through production and build the self-service tooling and guardrails that let teams deploy infrastructure at scale across the organization.

Platform and Infrastructure as Code

• Design, build, and maintain AWS and Azure infrastructure platform automation across a multi-account/subscription, multi-region environment supporting multiple product lines.

• Build reusable, versioned, auditable infrastructure modules in IaC, and convert existing Terraform, Cloud Formation, and Bicep/ARM templates to the corporate IaC standard.

• Design cross-account/subscription identity and access patterns (e.g., AWS IAM assume-role trust policies, Azure Entra  RBAC), least-privilege enforcement, and organization-level policy and tagging governance (e.g., AWS SCPs, Azure Policy).

• Build self-service tooling, templates, and reference patterns that make it easy for product teams to deploy safely on our chosen cloud providers.

Project Ownership and Technical Leadership

• Take projects from proposal through production with minimal direction: scope, plan, break down work, and communicate status and risk.

• Mentor engineers through design reviews, code reviews, and pairing.

• Set and document cloud best practices, guardrails, and reference architectures for use across engineering teams.

CI/CD and Automation

• Build and evolve CI/CD pipelines for automated, secure, and reproducible IaC deployments across Health Edge.

• Develop automation and scripting (Python, Bash) to reduce manual toil and enforce operational standards, including configuration management with Salt Stack and Ansible.

• Operationalize solutions from proof-of-concept through production, prioritizing repeatability and maintainability.

Reliability and Incident Response

• Build and maintain the tooling and automation that deploy and manage the metrics, dashboards, and alerting standards set by the Observability and service teams, using AWS and Azure native monitoring services, while keeping the underlying infrastructure scalable, available, and secure.

• Participate in the Level 3 (L3) escalation on-call rotation, providing expert infrastructure troubleshooting for issues escalated from L1/L2 support and application teams; drive root cause analysis, contribute to incident retrospectives, and turn findings into automation, runbooks, and platform improvements.

Security and Compliance

• Maintain and strengthen security program controls for Health Edge's FedRAMP and HIPAA obligations (and SOC
  2) by encoding them in IaC modules and policy-as-code, so controls are enforced by default.

• Build automated security checks into CI/CD pipelines and cloud environments.

• Partner with Sec Ops on identity and access role design, trust and delegation reviews, and audit evidence for compliance assessments.

Cost and AI-Enabled Engineering

• Contribute to Fin Ops initiatives: identify, diagnose, and remediate cost anomalies, and make pragmatic tradeoffs between cost, performance, and utilization.

• Use AI coding assistants (Git Hub Copilot, Claude Code, Cursor) to accelerate IaC development, scripting, troubleshooting, and first-pass documentation, and validate output before publishing.

• Evaluate emerging AI-assisted operations patterns for applicability to Health Edge's platform, balancing velocity gains against compliance and audit requirements.

Required Skills and Experience

• 6+ years of hands-on cloud engineering experience, with deep expertise in AWS or Azure (e.g., EC2/Azure VMs, EKS/ECS/AKS, IAM/Entra , VPC/VNet, S3/Blob Storage, RDS/Azure…
