Job Description

Fisher Investments is a globally recognized investment management firm committed to delivering exceptional financial outcomes for its clients. Known for its inclusive culture and dedication to employee development, Fisher Investments fosters an environment where innovation and continuous learning thrive. The company is proud of its Great Place to Work Certification, reflecting a workplace that values collaboration, growth, and well-being. This broad-minded approach creates a motivated workforce dedicated to enhancing the investment universe through advanced technology and client-centric solutions.

The role of a Cloud Engineer at Fisher Investments is both challenging and rewarding, centered around the design, implementation, and maintenance of scalable cloud infrastructure primarily using Microsoft Azure technologies. This position requires a deep understanding of cloud architecture, automation, security, and business integration. A Cloud Engineer will work closely with both technical and non-technical stakeholders, including infrastructure teams, application owners, and business leaders, to ensure cloud solutions meet organizational standards, security requirements, and operational efficiency.

This position is a full-time, in-office role offering a competitive salary, accompanied by substantial benefits that support physical, financial, and personal well-being. The Cloud Engineer will be responsible for driving improvements in IT policies, procedures, and infrastructure while leveraging automation tools for smooth deployment and operation of Azure cloud environments. A key element of the role involves conducting research on emerging cloud technologies, developing proof of concept projects, and recommending innovations that enhance service quality and organizational efficiency.

Operational responsibilities include performing reliable deployments of infrastructure resources using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) practices, continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines, and managing monitoring and security controls that align with compliance standards. A Gartner-level understanding of Azure’s IaaS and PaaS services is essential, as the Cloud Engineer will operate complex, multi-environment deployments and support 24/7 incident response and maintenance activities through flexible on-call rotations.

In addition to technical expertise, the role demands excellent communication skills to translate complex cloud concepts into understandable terms for diverse audiences, bridging the gap between technical teams and business stakeholders. This cross-functional collaboration ensures cloud strategies not only align with security and operational best practices but also cater to real business needs.

The Cloud Engineer position at Fisher Investments offers an opportunity to work in a cutting-edge technological environment where innovation, security, and operational excellence are prioritized. You will be part of an energetic team that values peer review, collaborative solution design, and continuous improvement. The company supports career growth by providing a robust learning framework and encourages participation in hybrid work arrangements based on performance and tenure, though this role requires regular office presence. Join Fisher Investments to contribute your cloud expertise toward a larger mission that improves the investment landscape worldwide.
