Are you ready to harness the power of AWS and automation to accelerate scientific breakthroughs and bring medicines to patients faster? Join a high-impact team that builds secure, scalable cloud platforms enabling our labs and product teams to move from idea to value at speed.
In this role, you will design and automate cloud infrastructure that underpins critical digital capabilities. Working side-by-side with engineers, security specialists, data teams, and platform owners, you will raise deployment velocity, strengthen reliability, and unlock developer productivity. You will use modern engineering tools improved by artificial intelligence responsibly to amplify your impact and keep our platforms robust and compliant. Can you see yourself turning complex requirements into resilient, automated solutions that scale across a global enterprise?
Cloud Infrastructure: Design, implement, and maintain AWS compute, storage, networking, and identity services that deliver secure, scalable foundations for digital and lab applications.
Build reusable Terraform, CloudFormation, and CDK modules to standardize environments, reduce lead times, and improve quality. Use AI-assisted tools to improve scripting and documentation while maintaining detailed reviews.
CI/CD and Automation: Create and evolve pipelines in GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, or similar to automate build, test, security scanning, and deployment, driving consistent, auditable releases.
Containers and Platform Support: Deploy and operate Docker-based services on EKS, ECS, or Fargate, improving availability, release consistency, and operational efficiency for product teams.
Observability and Operations: Implement end-to-end tracking, recording, and alerting with CloudWatch, Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, or OpenSearch; lead incident analysis and service improvement to reduce MTTR and prevent recurrence.
Security and Compliance: Embed identity and access controls, data protection, confidential information handling, vulnerability remediation, patching, and network controls into every layer of the stack; ensure AI tools are used responsibly and in line with enterprise policies.
Networking: Configure and optimize VPCs, subnets, route tables, NAT, security groups, load balancers, and DNS with guidance from senior engineers, supporting reliable connectivity and performance.
Migration and Modernization: Contribute to on-prem to AWS transition and projects focused on improving processes, accelerating environment setup, deployment automation, testing, and stabilization to de-risk cutovers.
AI-Enabled Engineering: Use enterprise-approved AI assistants to speed coding, infrastructure automation, troubleshooting, and documentation; validate outputs and uphold standards to ensure accuracy and compliance.
Cost Optimization: Implement tagging, monitor consumption, identify waste, and support rightsizing to reduce spend without sacrificing performance.
Documentation and Collaboration: Produce clear runbooks and implementation notes; engage developers, architects, security, and operations to align on designs and drive continuous improvement.
Value and Impact Progression: Deliver quick wins by stabilizing and automating priority services; then scale patterns, playbooks, and modules across teams to raise reliability and throughput enterprise-wide.
When we put unexpected teams in the same room, we unleash bold thinking with the power to inspire life-changing medicines. In-person working gives us the platform we need to connect, work at pace and challenge perceptions. That's why we work, on average, a minimum of three days per week from the office. But that doesn't mean we're not flexible. We balance the expectation of being in the office while respecting individual flexibility. Join us in our unique and ambitious world.
Here, your engineering craft tangibly advances science. We pair technologists with scientists, analysts, and designers around the same table to spark new ideas and move fast—using modern cloud, data, and AI to solve real problems that affect patients worldwide. You will join a high-performing, collaborative community that values kindness alongside ambition, gives you the autonomy to take smart risks, and backs you with the expertise and tools to turn prototypes into resilient, compliant platforms. Your contribution will streamline how our enterprise operates today while building the digital foundations for tomorrow’s breakthroughs.
Ready to build cloud platforms that accelerate discovery and deliver impact at scale—while stretching your skills on meaningful, high-visibility work? Apply to shape what science can do!
