Cloud engineer

Looking for two cloud engineers to work hybrid in Pittsburgh, pa, Lake, Mary, Or Jersey City, NJ

12 month rolling contract

Needs :

AZURE

GCP Nice to have. Aws Nice to Have

TERRAFORM is super important

Platform Engineering- Go, Python, Java

Greenfield Cloud development, not just deployments

Cloud Native Experience- Nice to have

Manager is looking at formatting of resume so less is more

Role Overview

We are seeking experienced Cloud Engineers to support BNY Mellon's cloud transformation initiatives. These roles are hands-on engineering positions focused on infrastructure automation, cloud security posture, and scalable platform design-NOT application development or support.

Title : Cloud Engineer Experience : 5–10 years (7+ preferred) Primary Platform : Azure Secondary Exposure : GCP (near-term investment), AWS (optional) Key Technologies :

• Infrastructure as Code : Terraform Enterprise (critical)
• Programming : Python (must-have), Java (optional)
• Containers : Docker, Kubernetes (AKS preferred)
• Security : Azure AD / IAM, AWS IAM fundamentals
• Serverless (nice-to-have) : Azure Functions, AWS Lambda

Core Capabilities & Responsibilities

🔹 Azure Platform Engineering

• Design / manage VNets, subnets, NSGs, Azure Firewall, VPN Gateway / ExpressRoute
• Deploy / update resources using Terraform
• Configure Azure AD service principals, RBAC, managed identities

🔹 GCP & AWS Exposure (Secondary)

• GCP : VPC networks, firewall rules, IAM roles, Compute Engine & GKE via Deployment Manager or Terraform
• AWS : VPCs, IAM roles / policies, Auto Scaling, CloudFormation or Terraform

🔹 Infrastructure as Code

• Author modular Terraform Enterprise configurations
• Use remote state and workspace management

🔹 Programming & Automation

• Develop automation scripts and cloud-native tooling in Python
• Implement robust error handling and integration with cloud services

🔹 Containers & Kubernetes

• Build / publish Docker images to ACR / ECR / GCR
• Deploy / manage Kubernetes workloads (AKS / GKE), Helm charts, rolling updates

🔹 Cloud Security Integration

• Azure AD : RBAC, service principals, conditional access
• AWS IAM : least-privilege policies, cross-account roles, SAML / OIDC federation

🔹 Serverless (Desirable)

• Build event-driven functions
• Integrate with storage / messaging services
• Manage function versions and durable workflows

Manager Insights & Priorities

• Focus is on hands-on cloud engineering-not development or support.
• Terraform and Python are critical skills.
• Immediate impact is on Azure; GCP is small; They are purchasing aws next year
• Engineers must be customer-facing : gather requirements, troubleshoot, design, and build.
• Candidates should be able to rationalize cloud security postures and contribute to foundational engineering.
• Strong preference for solid cloud engineers with infrastructure automation experience.
