Senior Infrastructure Engineer, AWS

uMed

About usuMed is a healthtech and data platform transforming clinical research through real-world and patient-generated data. Our platform enables rapid, decentralized research and high-quality data generation across a global healthcare network. As we scale our next-generation data platform, we are investing in strong infrastructure foundations to support secure, reliable, and compliant data and application workflows. Role OverviewWe are looking for a Senior Infrastructure Engineer (AWS) to take ownership of our cloud and hybrid infrastructure. This role is responsible for designing, securing, and operating our AWS environment, managing access and identity across teams, and supporting integration with third-party and on-premise systems (e.g., TPP). A key part of this role is reducing operational overhead by improving infrastructure design, access models, and system standardization. You will play a critical role in moving us from reactive infrastructure management to a scalable, well-governed platform. You will act as the primary owner of infrastructure-related decisions and best practices across the organization.
