Job description

Senior DevOps Cloud Engineer (Hybrid - Indianapolis or Dallas)

• Full-time
• Business Unit: Professional Services

Resultant is a modern consulting firm with a radically different approach to solving problems.

We don't solve problems for our clients. We solve problems with them.

Through outcomes driven by data analytics, technology solutions, digital transformation, and beyond, our team works with clients in both the public and private sectors to solve their most complex challenges. We start by learning as much as we can about who they are, how they work, and what they're striving for so we can feel their problems as our own. Partnering with our clients means their desired outcomes are always top of mind, their challenges and strengths guiding our efforts. We build client-focused relationships before we build unique solutions that blaze past expectations.

Originally founded in Indianapolis as KSM Consulting in 2008, Resultant now employs more than 350 team members who operate from offices around the United States including Indianapolis and Fort Wayne, Indiana; Columbus, Ohio; Lansing, Michigan; Denver, Colorado; Dallas, Texas and Atlanta, Georgia.

We're Resultant. Clients partner with us to see a difference. People join us to make one.

About the Role

We are looking for a Senior Cloud Engineer to serve as the senior-most technical authority for how we design, build, and operate infrastructure across AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure. This is a hands-on, infrastructure-focused role for an engineer who has spent more than a decade in production environments and now sets the standards, patterns, and reference architectures that entire teams build on. You will own the hardest architecture decisions, act as the final technical escalation point, and multiply the impact of every engineer around you.

You will work across internal platforms and client-facing engagements, shaping solutions from pre-sales through production. This is a principal-level individual contributor role and design authority. Your leverage comes from the standards you set, the accelerators you build, and the technical direction you drive across the practice, not from managing people.

Key Responsibilities

• Technical authority. Act as the design authority for multi-cloud infrastructure across AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure. Own the hardest architecture decisions and serve as the final escalation point for production-critical problems across engagements.
• Standards and reference architectures. Define the firm-wide standards, patterns, and reference architectures for landing zones, networking, identity, and workload platforms that every team builds on. Set account, subscription, and project structure, environment separation, and identity boundaries as defaults.
• Infrastructure as Code. Own the IaC standard for the practice. Build the reusable, modular Terraform and the module library that other engineers adopt by default, and govern state, versioning, and drift at scale.
• Container platforms. Set the standard for running Kubernetes in production (EKS, GKE, AKS), including networking, autoscaling, workload isolation, and day-2 operations. Own container registries and artifact promotion (ECR, ACR, Artifact Registry) and golden image pipelines (cloud-init, image bake) for consistent, hardened builds.
• Solutioning and pre-sales. Shape proposals and estimates, lead technical discovery, and represent the firm as the senior cloud voice in client and executive conversations.
• Delivery automation. Build and harden CI/CD pipelines and deployment automation that move code to production safely and repeatably.
• Reliability. Establish observability, SLOs, and incident response practices. Lead root cause analysis and drive permanent fixes rather than repeated firefighting.
• Security and compliance. Define the cloud security and compliance posture: identity and least-privilege access, secrets management, network segmentation, encryption, and policy as code.
• Cost and efficiency. Drive cost visibility and optimization (FinOps) across accounts, projects, and clouds.
• Leadership and mentorship. Raise the technical bar across the practice. Mentor and grow senior engineers, shape the hiring bar, and lead design reviews.
• Accelerators. Build the accelerators and reference implementations that cut delivery time and raise quality across every engagement.

Must Have

• 12+ years in cloud infrastructure, DevOps, or platform engineering, with deep production ownership and a record of setting technical direction.
• Deep, hands-on expertise across all three of AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure, or mastery of two with strong production experience in the third.
• Expert-level Infrastructure as Code, especially Terraform, with patterns and module libraries you have personally established as the standard across multiple teams.
• Production Kubernetes experience (EKS, GKE, or AKS), including day-2 operations and troubleshooting.
• Strong CI/CD design experience (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps, Jenkins, or similar).
• Advanced scripting and automation in Python, Bash, and/or PowerShell.
• Deep networking fundamentals across clouds: VPC and VNet design, DNS, load balancing, hybrid connectivity, and private-by-default access patterns (PrivateLink, Private Service Connect, Shared VPC, and multi-account or multi-project connectivity).
• Strong grounding in cloud security and identity (IAM, RBAC, secrets management, encryption).
• A track record as a design authority and top escalation point, and of mentoring senior engineers and setting standards others adopt.
• Experience leading technical solutioning or pre-sales in a client-facing or consulting environment.
• Strong written and spoken English communication skills, including with executive audiences.

Nice to Have

• GitOps and progressive delivery (ArgoCD, Flux), and service mesh experience.
• Policy as code (OPA, Sentinel) and compliance frameworks (SOC 2, FedRAMP, HIPAA).
• FinOps and large-scale cost optimization.
• VMware and hybrid or private cloud experience.
