Do you thrive in environments where secure, high-performance networks are the top priority?

As a Senior Cloud Administrator, your primary focus will be managing and strengthening our network and security infrastructure. You will oversee the configuration, operation, and policy enforcement of Palo Alto firewalls across cloud and on-prem environments maintaining security zones, threat profiles, traffic inspection, and consistent network protection. You’ll also drive the design and optimization of core network architectures, including routing, hybrid connectivity, segmentation, and overall network performance. 

In addition, you will support and maintain our AWS environments with an emphasis on code to infrastructure initiatives and secure integrations with on-premises systems. Your work will help ensure reliable, scalable, and security-focused cloud operations that align with enterprise networking standards

Here is a glimpse at your responsibilities: 

  • Design, deploy, and maintain secure, high-performance cloud infrastructure for AI workloads and data pipelines on AWS.
  • Manage and configure Palo Alto firewalls across cloud and hybrid environments to ensure strong perimeter and internal network security.
  • Automate infrastructure provisioning, configuration, and scaling through Terraform (modular design, reusable templates, and CI/CD workflows).
  • Implement and enforce AWS security best practices—including IAM policies, key management, encryption standards, and network segmentation.
  • Monitor system health, optimize performance, and ensure high availability across compute, storage, and networking resources.
  • Participate in incident response, disaster recovery planning, and security audits.
  • Drive cost efficiency across cloud resources through monitoring, analysis, and automation.
  • Document infrastructure designs, operational processes, and security controls.

Here is what will qualify you for the role: 

  • At least 10 years of experience in system and cloud administration.
  • Proven expertise in AWS security and compliance frameworks (CIS, SOC 2, NIST, ISO 27001).
  • Advanced experience with Terraform, including reusable modules and CI/CD integration.
  • Strong working knowledge of Palo Alto Networks firewalls (policies, zones, VPNs, troubleshooting).
  • Experience with containerization technologies (Docker, Kubernetes) and cloud orchestration.
  • Familiarity with DevOps pipelines, GitOps workflows, and observability tools such as CloudWatch, Grafana, or Prometheus.
  • Excellent communication, documentation, and cross-functional collaboration skills.

Here is what would make you stand out:

  • Have AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional or AWS Certified Security – Specialty.
  • Detain a Palo Alto Networks Certified Network Security Engineer (PCNSE).
  • Experience with data security and governance for AI/ML pipelines.
  • Experience scripting in Python, Bash, or PowerShell for automation.
