How you can make a difference
As Cloud Platform Lead, you own the end-to-end cloud infrastructure and platform strategy for Digital Health Solutions — Hamilton Medical's dedicated Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) business unit.
Reporting to the Head of Engineering, you are the single accountable owner for the Azure cloud environment: from day-to-day operations and incident response to long-term platform strategy, infrastructure-as-code foundations, security governance, and cost management.
You work in a startup-like environment in close collaboration with the dev team with a high degree of autonomy and will be instrumental in maturing the platform as the product s scales.
Cloud Infrastructure & Operations
- Own the Azure cloud environment end-to-end, including tenant administration, identity and access management (IAM), subscription governance, and resource organisation
- Ensure platform reliability through proactive capacity planning, performance monitoring, incident response, and disaster recovery processes
Platform Engineering
- Build and maintain reusable infrastructure-as-code (IaC) building blocks that enable engineering teams to ship reliably and safely
- Define and enforce platform standards across environments (development, staging, production)
Platform Strategy & Roadmap
- Own the cloud platform strategy and multi-quarter roadmap, aligning infrastructure evolution with product and business requirements
- Communicate platform decisions and trade-offs clearly to a non-cloud-expert leadership team
Cloud Security & Compliance
- Establish and maintain cloud infrastructure security standards in alignment with relevant frameworks (ISO 27001, SOC 2)
- Govern the collaboration with the external virtual CISO (vCISO), ensuring accountability and follow-through on security requirements
Cost Management
- Monitor, forecast, and optimise cloud spend; present cost reports and recommendations to leadership
That’s what you bring along
Must-have
- Proven hands-on experience owning Azure cloud infrastructure in a production environment (IAM, networking, compute, storage, monitoring)
- Strong infrastructure-as-code skills
- Ability to work autonomously in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment with minimal management overhead
- Highly structured and analytical approach to problem-solving, with the ability to communicate clearly to non-technical stakeholders
Beneficial
- Experience with cloud-based SaMD or regulated healthcare software environments
- Familiarity with information security frameworks: ISO 27001, SOC 2, or equivalent
- Experience engaging with external security partners (vCISO, pen-test providers, auditors)
Profile
- Strong bias towards action — moves decisively in ambiguous environments rather than waiting for perfect information
- Comfortable owning critical infrastructure and taking full accountability for outcomes
- Self-starter who takes ownership and drives outcomes without being asked
- Comfortable building structure and process from scratch in a startup-like setting
- Communicates proactively and transparently with engineering peers and leadership alike
