Remote Infrastructure Security Engineer Jobs in Tennessee

Role Summary

The Sr. Infrastructure Manager owns Intellivo's cloud, IT, and infrastructure security operations end to end. This is a modern, hands-on infrastructure leader who runs a cloud-first environment (Microsoft Azure required), manages corporate IT and endpoints (laptops, identity, and device management), and coordinates managed service providers (MSPs) and third-party cloud/data-center partners such as Flexential. The role pairs strong technical depth with disciplined cost management, including responsibility for AI tooling, token consumption, and cloud budgets. Security and compliance are core to the position: the ideal candidate has demonstrated experience implementing Zero Trust architecture and supporting compliance frameworks such as SOC 2, StateRAMP or FedRAMP, and ISO 27001. Familiarity with AI governance and data governance is strongly desired. This is a remote position; candidates in or near Memphis, TN are preferred.

• Manage relationships and SLAs with MSPs and third-party cloud and data-center providers such as Flexential, holding partners accountable for performance, uptime, and cost.
• Own infrastructure and cloud budgets, including forecasting, cost optimization, and vendor spend management.
• Manage AI tooling, token consumption, and associated budgets, establishing usage policies, monitoring, and cost controls across AI services.
• Implement and maintain Zero Trust security architecture across identity, devices, network, and workloads.
• Lead and support compliance efforts across frameworks such as SOC 2, StateRAMP or FedRAMP, and ISO 27001, including evidence collection, controls, and audit readiness.
• Establish and enforce data governance and AI governance practices, including data classification, access controls, retention, and responsible AI usage.
• Define and maintain infrastructure security controls: endpoint protection, patching, logging and monitoring, backup, and disaster recovery.
• Develop and test business continuity and disaster recovery plans to ensure resilience of critical systems and data.
• Automate infrastructure provisioning and operations (e.g., Infrastructure as Code, scripting, CI/CD) to improve efficiency and reduce manual effort.
• Partner with Engineering, Security, and business leaders to align infrastructure roadmap, capacity, and risk posture with company objectives.
• Track and report on infrastructure health, security posture, cost, and compliance status to leadership.

Key Deliverables for 2026

• A well-governed, cost-optimized Azure environment with clear ownership, monitoring, and documented architecture.
• Mature Zero Trust implementation across identity, endpoints, and network access.
• Audit-ready posture for the company's target compliance frameworks (e.g., SOC 2 and StateRAMP/FedRAMP or ISO 27001).
• Established AI and data governance policies with active cost controls on AI tooling and token usage.
