Job description

We are seeking a talented individual to join our team at Marsh. This role will be based in Louisville, Kentucky. This is a hybrid role that has a requirement of working at least three days a week in the office.

We are seeking an entry-level Public Cloud Administrator to manage, maintain, and optimize our cloud infrastructure across Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). This role is ideal for a recent college graduate with foundational cloud knowledge and a strong desire to grow technical skills in a supportive, team-oriented environment. You will help maintain and operate public cloud environments, learn best practices for secure and reliable cloud operations, and work closely with experienced engineers on day-to-day cloud tasks and projects.

We Will Count On You To

• Deploy, configure, and manage cloud resources (compute, storage, networking, databases) across AWS, Azure, and OCI while supporting existing on-prem Nutanix and VMware Horizon VDI environments.
• Monitor cloud health, performance, and utilization; respond to routine alerts, elevate incidents, and participate in a rotating weekly on-call schedule.
• Configure and secure storage (e.g., Amazon S3) with encryption, versioning, lifecycle rules, and bucket policies; implement IAM basics and adhere to security and compliance controls.
• Support migration and upgrade tasks alongside senior engineers and assist application deployments and integrations with development, operations, and security teams.
• Contribute to cost-optimization efforts and ongoing performance tuning to improve efficiency and reduce spend.
• Create and maintain comprehensive documentation for configurations and procedures, and collaborate with cross-functional teams for cloud initiatives and incident response.

What You Need To Have

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field, or 1–3 years of relevant practical experience, with a strong foundation in cloud concepts (compute, storage, networking, IAM) and physical data center fundamentals (server hardware, storage, networking).
• Working knowledge of cloud networking fundamentals (VPCs/VNETs, subnets, security groups, firewalls, DNS) and comfort operating in both Windows and Linux server environments.
• Basic scripting skills (Python, PowerShell, or Shell) and exposure to Infrastructure-as-Code concepts for automating deployments and configuration.
• Strong problem-solving ability, quick learner, and able to troubleshoot technical issues across cloud and on-prem environments.
• Good verbal and written communication skills, able to collaborate effectively with technical and nontechnical stakeholders.

What Makes You Stand Out

• Internship or experience working with cloud platforms.
• Entry-level cloud certification such as AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner or equivalent.
• Familiarity with monitoring and logging tools (e.g. CloudWatch) and basic log analysis.
• Interest in pursuing further technical certification and career growth within cloud engineering.
