Overview

This is not a traditional infrastructure support role. As a Senior Cloud Engineer on the Central Infrastructure Engineering team, you will design, automate, and operate the foundational Azure cloud platform that powers Ignite and the broader Health Catalyst engineering ecosystem.

You will contribute to the evolution of Azure platform patterns that other engineering teams build on - including networking, identity boundaries, deployment automation, governance controls, and reliability standards.

Working at the intersection of cloud architecture, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), and platform automation, you will help build secure, scalable, and repeatable Azure foundations. You’ll collaborate across teams to improve environment provisioning, deployment workflows, and overall operational excellence through strong engineering practices and automation-first thinking.

Who You Are

• You solve complex Azure infrastructure challenges and build scalable, secure cloud solutions.
• You think in systems and patterns including landing zones, secure networking, identity boundaries, and least-privilege access models.
• You build reusable, idempotent Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) and maintain clean, reliable automation.
• You design and improve CI/CD workflows using Azure DevOps and Git-based practices for multi-environment deployments.
• You prioritize observability, resiliency, and automation-first solutions over manual intervention.
• You collaborate effectively across teams to deliver scalable, developer-friendly platform capabilities.
• You operate confidently across infrastructure and application layers and understand their intersections.
• You model strong engineering standards through mentorship, code reviews, shared ownership, and continuous learning.

• Design, build, and maintain Azure-based cloud foundations supporting Ignite and other internal systems.
• Deploy and manage Azure infrastructure using Terraform, Azure DevOps pipelines, and automation tooling.
• Implement and maintain infrastructure provisioning, configuration management, and platform automation.
• Design and maintain secure networking architectures including VNets, private endpoints, DNS, routing, and NAT.
• Manage Databricks workspaces, including networking, access control, and compute configuration.
• Improve reliability, observability, and scalability of platform components through monitoring and automation.
• Partner with engineering teams to integrate platform tooling into CI/CD workflows.
• Contribute to a collaborative engineering support model that prioritizes automation over manual intervention.

• Azure Cloud Infrastructure (2+ years): Strong hands-on experience designing and operating solutions in Microsoft Azure.
• Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Terraform (required) and scripting for infrastructure provisioning and management.
• Azure DevOps: Experience building and maintaining YAML-based CI/CD pipelines and managing multi-environment deployments.
• Cloud Architecture: Understanding of well-architected cloud principles including resiliency, scalability, governance, cost guardrails, and policy enforcement.
• Networking: Strong knowledge of Azure networking concepts (VNets, subnets, private endpoints, routing, DNS, firewalls, NAT).
• Security & Governance: Implementing secure access patterns, managing secrets, RBAC, and compliance controls.
• DevOps Practices: CI/CD workflows, source control strategies, environment promotion patterns, and automation testing.
• Scripting & Automation: PowerShell, Python, YAML, SQL, or other scripting languages used in infrastructure automation.

• Databricks: Experience deploying, securing, or automating Databricks workspaces, including networking and access control.
• Platform Data Services: Familiarity with analytics platforms or data infrastructure in Azure environments.
• Software Development: Experience with .NET (C#), Python, or similar languages supporting automation or internal tools, Well-Architected Framework principles.
• Identity & Access Management: Experience with Azure Entra ID, Okta, or federated identity models.
• Monitoring & Observability: Familiarity with Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, or third-party observability tools.
• SDLC Practices: Experience with pull request workflows, branching strategies, and automated validation.

• Maintain compliance with required internal Information Security, HIPAA, and Acceptable Use Policy training.
• Adhere to and comply with the organization's Acceptable Use Policy.
• Safeguard organizational systems by identifying and reporting potential security risks.
• Follow established policies and best practices for protecting data and system assets.
