Commission Remote Cloud Engineer Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Job Title: Cloud Engineer Location: Indianapolis, IN Type: Contract Work Model: Remote

Responsibilities • Design and deploy cloud architectures on Microsoft Azure that meet performance, security, availability, and cost-efficiency requirements for a diverse portfolio of enterprise and research applications. • Architect and implement cloud networking, compute, storage, and identity constructs with security built in from the outset — applying least-privilege principles, network segmentation, encryption, and defense-in-depth across every layer. • Evaluate and recommend cloud services, architectural patterns, and infrastructure approaches; build evidence-based adoption cases that account for engineering capability, operational cost, and long-term platform sustainability. • Implement and maintain infrastructure-as-code (IaC) frameworks using Terraform, Ansible, Bicep, ARM templates, or equivalent — making infrastructure provisioning repeatable, auditable, and developer-friendly. • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines for cloud infrastructure and application deployments; ensure changes are tested, validated, and deployed safely with automated rollback capability. • Drive automation of operational tasks — patching, scaling, monitoring, alerting, and cost optimization — reducing manual intervention and improving platform reliability and response time. • Ensure cloud environments comply with Lilly's security standards, regulatory requirements, and data governance policies; implement and maintain controls for identity management, secrets management, audit logging, and encryption at rest and in transit. • Monitor cloud security posture continuously; identify and remediate misconfigurations, drift, and policy violations — integrating CSPM tooling into operational workflows for proactive compliance management. • Partner with Cybersecurity teams to align cloud platform security with enterprise threat models and applicable regulatory frameworks including GxP, 21 CFR Part 11, HIPAA, and SOX where relevant. • Monitor cloud environments for performance, availability, and cost efficiency; proactively identify waste, right-size resources, and drive FinOps practices that deliver cloud value without unnecessary spend. • Contribute to platform engineering standards, reference architectures, and guardrails that simplify how development teams consume cloud infrastructure correctly and consistently. • Troubleshoot and resolve cloud infrastructure issues with urgency and precision; contribute to post-incident analysis and implement preventive improvements that reduce recurrence.

Requirements • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field — or equivalent professional experience. • 3+ years of hands-on cloud engineering experience in a production enterprise environment (Microsoft Azure required). • Demonstrated proficiency with infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform, Ansible, Bicep, ARM templates, or equivalent) and version control (Git). • Proficiency in scripting languages (Python, Bash, or equivalent) for automation and tooling development. • Strong understanding of cloud networking, virtualization, containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and cloud security principles. • Experience with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices in a cloud-native context. • Microsoft Azure certification strongly preferred — Azure Solutions Architect Expert, Azure Administrator Associate, or Azure DevOps Engineer Expert. • Experience with FinOps practices and cloud cost optimization at enterprise scale. • Familiarity with monitoring and observability platforms (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, Azure Monitor, Application Insights, or equivalent). • Experience in pharmaceutical, healthcare, life sciences, or other regulated industries — particularly with GxP, 21 CFR Part 11, or HIPAA cloud compliance requirements. • Experience with Kubernetes in production (Azure Kubernetes Service / AKS or self-managed) including cluster operations and workload management. • Background in cloud security architecture: IAM design, secrets management, network security groups, and cloud-native security tooling.
