DevOps Engineer at MRO Corp

About this role

Overview The DevOps Engineering Advisor is a senior, hands-on individual contributor responsible for the design, management, and continuous improvement of MRO’s cloud environments, with a primary focus on Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and secondary exposure to Amazon Web Services (AWS). The role combines cloud platform engineering, infrastructure automation, and DevOps practices: the Advisor builds and operates well-architected, secure, and cost-effective cloud infrastructure while continuing to own automation tooling, CI/CD enablement, and the IT infrastructure that supports MRO’s product and corporate workloads. The Advisor works autonomously, partners closely with application engineering, infrastructure, security, and release management teams, and serves as a trusted technical advisor on cloud architecture, operations, and governance in a HIPAA- and HITRUST-regulated healthcare environment. Cloud Environment Management

Partner with Security and Compliance on assessments, audits, evidence collection, and remediation of cloud findings
Establish and maintain observability (for example, Azure Monitor, Google Cloud Observability, Datadog): metrics, logs, alerting, and dashboards; participate in incident response and root cause analysis
Design, implement, and test backup, disaster recovery, and high-availability strategies with defined RTO/RPO targets
Advisory and Collaboration
Act as a technical advisor to engineering, product, and IT leadership on cloud architecture, platform selection, migrations, and modernization
Understand the needs of stakeholders, translate them into cloud and automation solutions, and communicate trade-offs clearly in writing and in design review forums
Evaluate emerging cloud services and tooling, including AI-assisted engineering, and recommend adoption where it adds value
Mentor and share knowledge with infrastructure and development team members; contribute to documentation and standards
