About the Team 

The Cloud Build, Provisioning & Automation team builds and runs the cloud platform infrastructure behind Apexs core business. We handle cloud platform builds across AWS, GCP, and Azure, manage cloud costs, enable migrations between on-prem and cloud environments, and drive infrastructure automation. Our goal is simple: keep Apexs cloud fast, reliable, and cost-efficient. 

The Role 

Youll own the product roadmap for cloud infrastructure — from migrations and provisioning automation to cost optimization and AI-driven platform improvements across AWS, GCP, and Azure. Youll work side-by-side with engineers and stakeholders, turning business needs into clear priorities and shipping results. Youll also be the teams voice across the organization, making sure our impact is visible and well understood. 

This role is hands-on. Youll dig into technical problems, evaluate build vs. buy decisions, and use AI to drive strategic value across the platform. Over time, youll grow into a technical product leader and become the face of the team. 

What Youll Do 

Roadmap & Strategy 

• Own and prioritize the roadmap for cloud migrations, provisioning automation, and platform builds across AWS, GCP, and Azure 
• Build an AI-first roadmap — identify where AI and automation can accelerate delivery, reduce cost, and improve platform reliability 
• Evaluate build vs. buy for technology solutions; make clear, data-backed recommendations 
• Break large initiatives into well-defined epics, stories, and requirements 
• Drive the creation of feature area strategy based on team priorities and market research 

Cloud Cost & Engineering 

• Analyze cloud usage across AWS, GCP, and Azure to identify cost optimization opportunities 
• Partner with engineering and finance to implement cost-saving measures and track results 
• Develop a working understanding of cloud engineering and architectural concepts (networking, compute, storage, IaC, CI/CD) across major cloud providers 

Delivery & Execution 

• Manage end-to-end delivery of infrastructure projects — on time, in scope 
• Partner with engineers to remove roadblocks and streamline execution 
• Set OKRs, track success metrics (project timelines, cost savings, migration milestones), and communicate progress 
• Manage projects with some ambiguity and multiple inbound/outbound dependencies independently 

Cross-Functional Collaboration & Vendor Management 

• Work with cross-functional teams to design scalable solutions and get hands-on when needed 
• Maintain and grow partnerships with cloud vendors (AWS, GCP, Azure) and tooling partners 
• Coordinate migration objectives, timelines, and dependencies across teams to minimize operational impact 

AI & Technology Curiosity 

• Use AI tools and techniques to bring strategic value — from automating workflows to generating insights from platform data 
• Stay curious about emerging cloud and AI technologies; bring ideas back to the team and roadmap 

Team Advocacy 

• Serve as the face of the team — communicate progress, wins, and impact to leadership and stakeholders 
• Mentor junior team members; share customer and platform insights to elevate the team 
• Build the teams reputation for reliability and delivery excellence 

What Were Looking For 

• 5+ years in product management, program management, solution architecture or a similar role in cloud infrastructure or platform engineering 
• Working knowledge of cloud platforms (GCP, AWS, Azure), infrastructure provisioning (Terraform, Ansible), and platform engineering and a proven track record leveraging & optimizing these technologies.  
• Experience evaluating build vs. buy decisions for technology solutions 
• Strong analytical skills — you can compile research, analyze data, and produce insights independently 
• Good understanding of cloud cost levers and FinOps concepts across multiple cloud providers 
• Comfort with technical product design discussions across multiple engineering teams 
• Strong written and verbal communication — you can create AI prototypes, PRDs, status updates, and stakeholder-facing docs with minimal oversight 
• Ability to manage multiple projects, balance competing priorities, and deliver in a fast-paced environment 
• Genuine curiosity about AI, automation, and how to apply them to platform and infrastructure problems 
• Experience managing or growing vendor relationships is a plus 

Why Join Us? 

Youll work on projects that directly power Apexs cloud infrastructure and business transformation. Youll deepen your expertise across AWS, GCP, and Azure, AI-driven product management, and technical leadership — as part of a team known for driving meaningful impact across the organization.
