Job Description
A large Hospital system is undergoing an enterprise‑wide migration from on‑prem VMware to AWS and is seeking a hands‑on Cloud Engineer to act as the right hand to the Cloud Architect during this transition.
This role is heavily focused on executing and supporting AWS migrations, standing up and supporting cloud environments post‑migration, introducing automation and best practices, and helping enable the broader infrastructure team to successfully operate in AWS.
This is not a pure architecture role and not a generalist cloud position. The ideal candidate has real‑world experience migrating workloads into AWS and supporting those environments in production.
Support and execute VMware → AWS migrations, including pre‑migration prep, cutover support, and post‑migration validation
Work closely with the Cloud Architect to build, configure, and support AWS environments
Assist with selection and usage of migration tooling (e.g., AWS MGN or equivalent)
Help establish repeatable AWS patterns for compute, networking, IAM, and monitoring
Develop scripts and automation to support infrastructure provisioning and migration efforts
Introduce and support Infrastructure‑as‑Code practices (Terraform and/or CloudFormation)
Partner with infrastructure, networking, and PMO teams throughout the migration lifecycle
Support production workloads post‑migration, including troubleshooting and optimization
Mentor and enable internal IT teams on AWS operations, troubleshooting, and best practices
Collaborate with stakeholders across the organization, including leadership, in a professional and clear manner
