Sr Cloud Engineer at Versant3

The Senior Cloud Engineer is a hands-on technical role responsible for designing, building, automating, and operating VERSANT’s cloud infrastructure and platforms. This engineer will work closely with application teams, platform engineers, and security teams to build scalable, secure, and highly automated cloud environments that support a wide range of media workloads.  The role focuses primarily on AWS at enterprise scale, including multi-account environments, AWS Organizations, Control Tower, Identity Center, networking, and shared cloud services. The engineer will help implement cloud standards, automate infrastructure using infrastructure as code, and enable application teams through CI/CD pipelines and reusable cloud infrastructure patterns.  VERSANT operates a mix of legacy applications and modern cloud-native workloads, and this role will help migrate, modernize, and support these systems while ensuring consistent architecture and operational practices across environments.  This role also requires strong knowledge of hybrid connectivity between on-premises (internal data centers and third parties), and cloud environments, as well as cross-account resource sharing and networking. Experience working with Azure and GCP is a strong plus as the organization evolves toward broader multi-cloud capabilities.  Key Responsibilities  Cloud Infrastructure Engineering  • Design, implement, and maintain cloud infrastructure primarily within AWS.  • Build and manage environments across multi-account AWS organizations using AWS Organizations and Control Tower.  • Implement secure and scalable cloud networking architectures, including VPC design, routing, transit networking, and private connectivity. Automation & Infrastructure as Code  • Build and maintain infrastructure using infrastructure as code tools such as Terraform and CloudFormation.  • Develop reusable infrastructure modules and automation frameworks to standardize deployments.  • Automate environment provisioning, configuration, and lifecycle management. CI/CD & Platform Enablement  • Design and maintain CI/CD pipelines that automate infrastructure and application deployments.  • Integrate cloud infrastructure provisioning into build pipelines and delivery workflows.  • Partner with development teams to enable reliable and repeatable deployment processes. Identity, Security & Governance  • Implement and maintain cloud identity and access controls using AWS IAM and AWS Identity Center (SSO).  • Support implementation of security controls, logging, and compliance guardrails across cloud environments.  • Ensure environments follow company standards for security, monitoring, and governance. Hybrid Connectivity & Networking  • Support connectivity between on-premises data centers and AWS environments using VPN, Direct Connect, and hybrid networking patterns.  • Implement secure cross-account networking and shared services architectures. Operations & Reliability  • Monitor cloud infrastructure and services to ensure reliability, performance, and availability.  • Participate in incident response and operational troubleshooting.  • Continuously improve platform reliability through automation, observability, and operational best practices.
