Company Overview
At NetCov , we specialize in delivering cutting-edge IT and cybersecurity solutions designed to protect and optimize the digital infrastructure for the industries we serve. We differentiate ourselves from our competition through our deep and intimate knowledge of our customers’ business.
About the Role
As a Sr. Cloud Engineer at NetCov , you will understand both the architecture of our systems and the engineering required to build them. You know the level of detail needed to keep systems in place that deliver consistent uptime and support for our clients' escalated and most business-impacting issues. Your primary duties include cloud automation, DevOps, triage, review, response, design, implementation, and maintenance of cloud infrastructure solutions and client environments. You will also serve as a technical leader on the team, leading process improvement and mentoring junior engineers.
In a typical week, you will ensure the stability of our clients' infrastructure through triage and problem solving, and you will build and engineer infrastructure either from the ground up or to fit within a client's existing environment. What sets a Sr. Cloud Engineer apart is greater scope, responsibility, mentoring, and knowledge. We expect those in this role to understand the end goal of a project before work begins, to peer review their colleagues' projects, and to identify patterns and commonalities across client networks and alerts. Senior engineers are also expected to anticipate technical risks, make sound architectural decisions, and deliver secure, cost-conscious solutions that can be supported after project completion.
Accountabilities Cloud Infrastructure Design & Deployment Build, configure, and deploy secure and scalable cloud infrastructure in Microsoft Azure and AWS.
Codify security baselines and guardrails in Terraform or other infrastructure-as-code tools so every deployment is secure, repeatable, and scalable by default.
Drive infrastructure automation and DevOps improvements, helping establish standards for reusable modules, version control, code reviews, and secure deployments.
Lead migrations from on-premises or hosted environments to AWS or Azure, evaluating dependencies, cutover sequencing, rollback plans, and hybrid integration requirements.
Automate infrastructure provisioning, deployment validation, testing, and configuration management.
Continuously improve CI/CD pipelines to enhance efficiency, reliability, and security.
Leverage Terraform, Python, PowerShell, and other automation tools to provision, manage, and optimize infrastructure.
