Job Title: Senior Cloud Developer / Technical Project Manager

We are seeking an experienced Senior Cloud Developer / Technical Project Manager to support a federal government contract focused on public health–related data systems and enterprise cloud modernization.

The ideal candidate will actively contribute to cloud solution development, technical decision-making, implementation oversight, and hands-on engineering activities, while also managing project execution. This position is not a PM-only role; candidates must demonstrate strong hands-on technical expertise in cloud platforms, software development, and system modernization within regulated healthcare or life sciences environments.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the technical development, planning, and delivery of enterprise cloud applications and data platforms.
- Design, develop, review, and guide implementation of cloud solutions across AWS, Azure, and/or Google Cloud environments.

- Translate business and regulatory requirements into scalable, secure cloud-based applications and technical solutions.
- Develop and maintain technical documentation, including system designs, implementation plans, architecture diagrams, and deployment roadmaps.
- Manage project schedules, milestones, risks, and dependencies while ensuring technical quality and successful delivery.
- Support system modernization, data integration, application development, and cloud migration initiatives.
- Ensure compliance with government, healthcare, and data governance standards.
- Facilitate technical reviews, status briefings, sprint planning, and stakeholder meetings.
- Support Agile or hybrid delivery models, working closely with developers, data engineers, DevOps, and security teams.
- Participate in hands-on development, code reviews, troubleshooting, and cloud platform optimization.
Required Qualifications
- Extensive hands-on experience developing and delivering cloud solutions in AWS, Azure, and/or Google Cloud (development and implementation, not just oversight).

- Experience supporting public health, pharmaceutical, life sciences, or healthcare data systems.
- Strong understanding of healthcare systems, regulatory environments, and data management practices.
- Experience working in Agile or hybrid delivery environments.
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Public Health, Engineering, or a related field.
- Strong analytical, problem-solving, and technical communication skills.
- Proficiency with project management and collaboration tools (e.g., MS Project, Jira, Confluence, Trello).
- (required for government contract eligibility).
- Ability to pass a federal background investigation.
Preferred Qualifications
- Cloud certifications (e.g., AWS Developer Associate, AWS Solutions Architect, Azure Developer Associate, Azure Solutions Architect Expert).
- PMP, CSM, PMI-ACP, or similar project management certifications.
- Experience working with HHS agencies (e.g., FDA, NIH, CMS, HRSA, CDC).
- Familiarity with data visualization and reporting tools (e.g., Tableau, Power BI).
