CGC is seeking a Principal Cloud & DevOps Integration Engineer to define, build, and standardize the operational, deployment, and infrastructure patterns used by ISVs across our FedRAMP-High and FedRAMP-Moderate platforms. This role focuses on DevOps operations, cloud infrastructure, CI/CD automation, environment standardization, Kubernetes operations, observability, and compliance-aligned deployment models. The ideal candidate brings deep experience designing and operating multi-region Kubernetes environments, Terraform-based cloud stacks, zero-downtime deployments, secure CI/CD pipelines, and cloud-native modernization of legacy workloads.  This is a remote position.

  • Architect CGC’s cloud operational patterns for FedRAMP-High and FedRAMP-Moderate enclaves.
  • Define standardized Terraform/IaC modules for network, compute, storage, identity, and multi-region failover.
  • Create repeatable operational blueprints (RBAC, secrets, logging, ingress, service mesh, backup/restore, active/active patterns).
  • Design and operationalize Kubernetes clusters that support multi-tenant ISV workloads.
  • Develop hardened, compliant baseline cluster configurations (OPA/Gatekeeper, Pod Security, network policy, secrets management).
  • Provide architectural guidance for SRE teams to scale, secure, and operate clusters with minimal variance.
  • Establish secure, regulated CI/CD patterns for all ISVs (GitOps, deployment gates, runtime policies, auditability).
  • Develop zero-downtime deployment mechanisms: blue/green, canary, progressive delivery, multi-region rollouts.
  • Create shared deployment pipelines, reusable GitHub/Azure DevOps templates, and operational runbooks.
  • Build automation for environment provisioning, region expansion, scaling, and standardized service onboarding.
  • Codify operational patterns that reduce SRE burden and improve predictability across ISV workloads.
  • Build tooling to enforce platform consistency while enabling ISV flexibility.
  • Define observability frameworks (metrics, logs, distributed traces) and integrate them into CGC’s platform patterns.
  • Create standardized SLOs, alerting structures, operational dashboards, and incident response workflows.
  • Drive operational readiness and reliability engineering practices across teams.
  • Embed FedRAMP, SOC2, HI-Trust controls directly into IaC, pipelines, cluster configuration, and deployment processes.
  • Build automated guardrails that prevent drift or non-compliant configurations from entering sensitive enclaves.
  • Partner with SOC and Compliance to ensure operational patterns remain audit-ready.
  • Work with Client Engagement teams to guide ISVs through operational onboarding and modernization.
  • Alin with SRE team on platform operations, IaC, deployment architecture, and cloud-native best practices.
  • Perform architectural reviews, environment assessments, and operational deep-dives with new and existing ISVs.
  • DevOps, cloud engineering, or SRE roles.
  • Deep expertise with Kubernetes, multi-region cloud architectures, containerization, and cluster operations.
  • Strong experience with IaC, cloud networking, IAM, and secure cloud platform design.
  • Proficiency implementing GitOps, CI/CD pipelines, blue/green and canary deployments, and automated release processes.
  • Strong background in building high-availability, zero-downtime production environments.
  • Experience working in healthcare, fintech, or other regulated industries.
  • Fluent with monitoring/observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, OpenTelemetry)
  • CKA, CKAD, or equivalent cloud-native certifications.
  • Experience with Azure (AKS), AWS (EKS), or hybrid multi-cloud patterns.
  • Familiarity with service mesh, secure secrets platforms, and runtime policy engines.
  • Experience building operational automation platforms or internal developer platforms.
  • Strong background in incident command, postmortem culture, and reliability engineering.
  • Our wellness package provides access to an on-site gym and includes medical, dental, and vision insurance along with options for FSA and EAP.
  • We offer 401(k) with employer match, unlimited PTO, and a culture respectful of the reality that not everything in one’s personal life is guaranteed to happen only after hours.
