DevOps Engineer

Overview

MD Integrations (MDI) is seeking a DevOps Engineer to support and enhance our cloud infrastructure. As a growing company, we are focused on scaling, standardizing, securing, and optimizing our AWS environment while expanding our use of Infrastructure as Code and automation.

This role will be instrumental in maintaining and improving our cloud infrastructure, increasing automation, supporting production reliability, and helping modernize how infrastructure is deployed and managed. The engineer will work closely with backend developers and infrastructure teams to ensure seamless system functionality and reliable software delivery.

The ideal candidate is DevOps-focused with a strong systems engineering foundation. Strong practical knowledge of AWS, Linux, networking, Infrastructure as Code, security, and automation is essential. This position reports directly to the Sr. Director, Systems Operations and is fully remote. Availability during and after core business hours may be required as business needs dictate.

What You’ll Be Accountable For

1. Infrastructure as Code & AWS Infrastructure
2. • Implement, maintain, and optimize AWS infrastructure across services such as EC2, ECS/Fargate, ECR, VPCs, IAM, load balancers, WAF, AWS Firewall, Security Groups, and S3.
   • Build and maintain infrastructure using Terraform and help reduce reliance on manually configured cloud resources while improving consistency across environments.
   • Administer and optimize Linux systems and automate infrastructure, deployment, and configuration tasks using tools such as Terraform, Bash, Python, or JavaScript.
3. DevOps & Software Delivery
4. • Collaborate with backend engineering and other technical teams to improve deployment workflows and software delivery processes.
   • Apply significant hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines to help design, troubleshoot, improve, and standardize deployment workflows.
   • Support containerized applications and infrastructure using technologies such as Docker, ECS/Fargate, and ECR while improving deployment reliability, repeatability, security, and automation.
5. Security, Networking & Reliability
6. • Maintain secure AWS networking infrastructure including VPCs, routing, VPNs, load balancers, DNS, SSL/TLS, firewalls, and Security Groups.
   • Implement and monitor AWS security controls including IAM policies, encryption, network security rules, logging, GuardDuty, AWS Config, CloudTrail, and Security Hub.
   • Support highly available and scalable infrastructure with appropriate redundancy, failover, resiliency, and security practices aligned with ISO 27001, HIPAA, and SOC 2.
7. Monitoring, Incident Response & Disaster Recovery
8. • Manage and improve monitoring, logging, and alerting solutions such as CloudWatch, CloudTrail, Better Stack, DataDog, or New Relic.
   • Support incident response and troubleshooting across production and development AWS environments, proactively identifying recurring reliability or performance issues.
   • Support backup, disaster recovery, resiliency, and recovery testing using AWS Backup or comparable technologies.
9. Operational Improvement & Projects
10. • Identify opportunities to improve AWS efficiency, right-size resources, reduce unnecessary cloud spend, and automate repetitive operational tasks.
    • Work with Cloudflare and similar technologies supporting CDN, WAF, DDoS mitigation, traffic routing, and edge security.
    • Work closely with external MSPs, contractors, and internal teams to coordinate infrastructure modernization projects, track progress, and ensure initiatives meet business and technical needs.
