- Directly manage a small team of cloud engineers; handle hiring, coaching, performance reviews, career development, and administrative tasks (time-off, expense approvals)
- Facilitate team stand-ups, planning, and backlog refinement; break down Director-defined initiatives into well-scoped, actionable work items with the team
- Produce weekly status reports for leadership covering progress, blockers, and upcoming priorities
- Serve as primary point of contact for cloud governance requests, escalations, and issues from Engineering and other departments; collect requirements and feedback when implementing new systems, guardrails, or CSP configurations; communicate policy changes and best practices to development teams
- Develop, implement, and enforce cloud governance frameworks and policies across Azure, AWS, and SaaS platforms to meet regulatory and industry requirements

- Oversee multiple Microsoft Entra tenants used by Engineering and other departments, including cross-tenant synchronization, identity lifecycle management (provisioning, deprovisioning, attribute-based scoping), and SAML/OIDC authentication for SaaS applications and CSPs
- Oversee hardware security key (YubiKey) lifecycle management - procurement, provisioning, and phishing-resistant authentication policies - for the FedRAMP environment
- Conduct security assessments and audits; perform root cause analysis on governance-related incidents; support compliance initiatives in regulated and compliance-heavy environments, including audit readiness and evidence collection
- Manage vendor relationships for cloud service providers and SaaS platforms within a shared responsibility model - including billing, contract negotiation, authentication configuration, and delegation to end users
- Monitor cloud usage and spending; identify and implement cost optimization strategies; evaluate licensing models and SKU options; provide regular reports on cloud costs and usage trends to senior leadership and Finance
- Contribute hands-on work as needed - writing Terraform, PowerShell, or Python for policy enforcement, automation, and infrastructure management; review infrastructure-as-code pull requests from the team; develop CI/CD pipelines for cloud policy and governance tooling deployment What You'll Bring:
- 7+ years in cloud engineering, operations, or governance with a strong focus on Azure and AWS
- 3+ years of direct people management experience leading technical teams
- Expert-level Microsoft Entra knowledge across Entra ID, Conditional Access, Identity Protection, Privileged Identity Management (PIM), Identity Governance, and multi-tenant / cross-tenant architectures
- Strong IAM fundamentals: SAML, OIDC, RBAC, and JIT privilege elevation
- Proficiency with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform preferred) and scripting (PowerShell, Python, Bash)
- Experience with cloud policy frameworks (Azure Policy, AWS SCPs, Cloud Custodian) and tagging/naming governance
- Experience with cloud cost optimization and financial reporting, plus vendor management for CSPs and SaaS (contracts, billing)

- Experience in regulated or compliance-heavy environments (e.g., FedRAMP, SOC 2, NIST 800-53)
- Experience with Microsoft Government Cloud (GCC High, Azure Government)
- Experience with AWS Organizations, consolidated billing, and multi-account governance
- Familiarity with Zero Trust security frameworks and Azure Virtual Desktop or Windows 365 deployments
- Familiarity with Jira Service Management (JSM) for ticketing and request workflows
