Cloud Engineer

Founded in 1999 in the beautiful Smoky Mountains of East Tennessee, Cadre5 provides innovative technical solutions to customers locally and nationally. Our Cadre5 Lab Partners division has partnered with the National Center for Computational Sciences (NCCS) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) to recruit Cloud Engineers for the American Science Cloud (AmSC) initiative.

AmSC is a first-of-its-kind, federally funded cloud infrastructure and API platform designed to accelerate AI model development, data sharing, and large-scale computational science across the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE).

ORNL is a premier research institution delivering breakthroughs in energy, national security, and advanced computing. Located near Knoxville, TN, the lab provides world-class resources to solve some of the nation’s most complex scientific challenges.

We are recruiting multiple Cloud Engineers with complementary skill sets; some focused on AWS cloud infrastructure and others on DevOps/MLOps and application deployment.

This is a rare opportunity to be part of a groundbreaking project that will help shape the future of U.S. scientific computing. If you’re passionate about cloud engineering, DevOps, and enabling large-scale science, we’d love to hear from you!

**Please note: The first step in the interview process requires candidates to join a Microsoft Teams meeting with the video turned on.**

This is a full-time position that can telecommute. Occasional travel to the Oak Ridge facility may be required.
